Extremely friendly welcome in a nice hotel
For an extremely friendly stay I can highly recommend Balmacara. The rooms are excellent with great views either over the Loch - front - or the mountains - back. The owners and staff could not be friendlier and more helpful. The hotel itself, being just a mile or so on this side of the Skye Bridge, is ideally placed for a day on Skye. I can also highly recommend the restaurant, which is helpful given the dearth of options in the area.

Over hyped
Overall, I wont be staying here again. The "King bed" is slightly smaller than a queen bed, walls are paper thin to where you can hear your neighbors conversations. The dinner was delicious though.

Nice enough
Nice little hotel, modern enough rooms in an older building. I didn’t eat, or go in the bar but both looked nice. The bin in my bedroom was however full of somebody else’s rubbish. Made me want to check the cleanliness of everything else but it seemed okay…

Great stay
The hotel was beautiful with a great location. We struggled with the door handle and the heat in our room. We had a great stay but there might need to be more maintenance at the hotel.

The front desk has friendly people. Beds need update. Not comfortable ! Restaurant has good food but the waiters needs more customer service. Breakfast was ok. They brought us different items that the ones we ordered. We did not complain and did not send it back. Overall the hotel was ok.
