"The place was clean and tidy, and the owner was very kind. But until I arrived I had no idea that the room did not have its own bathroom.
Sandwick Bay was OK, but pretty limited.
However Stornoway is a very limited place. No restaurants as such, Even the chippies shut at 8.
Lewis has a lot going for it - north, west and south.
Stornoway is the obvious place to stay - but is not much fun."
"The staff were delightful and very professional, breakfast was very good, hotel in a convenient location, other guests were well-behaved (sadly not always the case these days!)"
"Great location, smashing breakfast, very comfy bed, its all we were looking for. If you,re looking for somewhere thats just braw, then look no further, "
"Hotel was cute and in a great location. Our only negative was that although our bed was large it was uncomfortable and could use an updating. Staff were very friendly! "

"A very comfortable room . Beautifully decorated. All little extras provided. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was excellent. We ate an evening meal in the pub which was also very good . Happily stay there again ."
"The welcome by Linda was warm and personable and even though I arrived a bit early, my room was ready. I stayed in a single twin bed, it was comfortable and there was plenty of space for luggage, etc.
The bathroom was newly renovated and the tiles and fixtures are top quality--best shower in Scotland!
Well stocked coffee & tea station--specialty herbal teas and hot coco!
Breakfast was delicious with a multitude of options. If you want porridge order the night before.
It is a bit out of the center but very walkable. Great 3-day stay! Will definitely return!!!"
Detached spacious Isle of Lewis cottage in tranquil position with loch view
10/10 Excellent
"Kenny and Mairi did everything they could to make us feel welcome in their cottage. Lovely welcome gifts on arrival and some great books on walks on the island as well as wildlife were very helpful. The cottage is well located for exploring Lewis and Harris with some great points of interest in the near vicinity. The double bed was very comfortable and the towels luxurious! They had thought of everything. Wish we could have stayed longer! "
