Just returned from a short break staying in the small self-catering apartment attached to the hotel. The accommodation was to a high standard (and our dog was welcomed too) ,the service was warm, friendly and welcoming and the food was exceptional. No hesitation about recommending .

The Stein Inn simply oozes genuine old world character and charm as you would expect from a place about 400 years old. Add to this its great location...just walk out of the door and the loch is infront of you...and you have something very special.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and went out of their way to make sure that you enjoyed Skye. The breakfasts were quite simply superb and most of the ingredients sourced both locally and with an eye for animal welfare and ethical production. The bar food was also good but for something a little more gourmet there is the superb Loch Bay seafood restaurant 100 yards away.

We really enjoyed our stay...the sloping floors, smoking log fires etc all add to the experience. Don't expect state of the art power showers, in room movies and the like and then complain...if you do you are completing missing what The Stein Inn is all about!

Great location, overlooking a loch. Cosy bar area, with an incongruous modern end. Smoky fire.
What REALLY lets this place down however, is the staff. They have simply never heard of customer service. Everything seems to be a huge effort and smiles are not forthcoming. You have to eat by their rules, either one of two set dining times in the soulless restaurant, or find a table if you can in the bar (the modern end has very low tables not conducive to eating) and then wait for ages to be served. And the beer was really disappointing too - we tried every one they had over 6 nights and couldn't find one that we really liked.
Don't go here and expect a welcome, you will be sorely disappointed.

We stayed here for a three day break from 26 March 07. On arrival we were warmly welcomed in and shown to our room.

Very cosy room with a low window looking out over Loch Bay - directly at the amazing sunsets we were lucky to get every night of our stay.

We were staying on a b&b basis but ate at the Inn every night - in fact we enjoyed the accommodation and food so much we stayed on an extra night. Excellent value food with specials on every night in addition to the normal menu - and veggies well catered for. Cosy atmosphere and excellent selection of whisky in the bar!

Breakfasts superb, served in the dining room; again with views out over bonnie Loch Bay.

Staff extremely attentiive and friendly and made us feel very much at home and relaxed. Teresa and Angus McGhie, the owners have a real winner here.

We will certainly be returning to the Stein inn and would not hesitate to recommend a stay here; in a stunning part of Skye.
