The room was compact but this had been indicated in the information so was not a surprise. It contained everything necessary. There were some instructions regarding parking however this was not problem.

Relatively expensive compared to other accommodation booked...
Relatively expensive compared to other accommodation booked for our 12 day trip. Hotel felt a bit tired and dated. No hairdryer in room and ironing board provided was faulty. Bed was ok but moved too easily if pressed onto. Restaurant was full when we arrived at 7pm, so ate in the bar. Food was ok, but nothing to write home about and adequate selection. Would select another option for a future trip.

Wonderful views.
Wonderful views. Fishing boats moving across the water very restful. Bus near station only a few minutes away from Bothy, takes an hour to Portree on Skye. Train to Plockton 19 minutes. Wish we had had time for the boat trip from Kyle harbour. Hector's Bothy cafe often bustling, Pizza Mia freshly made carry outs good (haggis and red onion topping), Cafe opposite traffic lights friendly and welcoming. Very well stocked Co-op. Train journey to Kyle glorious, but a car might be better for exploring (good parking next to flat.)

Fabulous location, lovely room.
Fabulous location, lovely room. Evening bar and restaurant excellent.
Evening staff excellent
Breakfast - not good for the price of hotel, stern unhelpful staff member. Had to ask for water in the tea urn, wouldn’t serve hot porridge and then the hot breakfast later. ( you could only have it all served together) so you choose which went cold, your porridge or your cooked breakfast.

We would have stayed longer had we known about it and used it as a base for Skye as the hotel we headed to was extremely expensive and compared to this hotel and the staff here we knew we were getting ripped off. Balmacara is lovely and we would go back in a heartbeat.

Rooms were functional and compact.
Rooms were functional and compact. Over priced for what you get. Although, location was good for visit to Skye.
Breakfast was an additional £15, we opted out and went to a cafe just minutes from the hotel, had a lovely breakfast for a fraction of the price.

The house was a great location for visiting Skye.
The house was a great location for visiting Skye. We didn't actually explore much of Kyle of Lochalsh. Didn't seem too many option for eating out at night, but that didn't matter to us as we cooked or were out on Skye. Big supermarket in Kyle of Lochash and a couple of takeaway options.

Being an older building there were understandable quirks like extremely narrow hallways but the hotel had updated the rooms and bathrooms for the most part. They made efforts to provide comfort like water in the rooms and it was nice and clean. There is access to the 2nd floor direct from the parking which was extremely nice as there is no lift. having both the bar and the restaurant in the hotel was good for meal options. The staff was lovely.
Craig Cottage is a quaint and cozy lodging set on a hill above Kyle of Lochalsh. The the home is fully equipped and the garden is absolutely lovely. Craig cottage is a great launching point for endless hikes on the Isle of Skye, a viisit to Eilean Donan Castle, or any other Highland adventure.
Our hosts were exceptionally gracious and helpful in every way. Highly recommend.
The location was excellent. Right beside the main road to Skye and very close to Skye bridge. Good Co Op within walking distance and places to eat nearby.
Beds in the house were very comfortable, a really good sized kitchen.
Lots of accessories like toiletries, tea, coffee etc. And good utensils, equipment in the kitchen.
TV channels were decent too.
House was also clean.
The location of the hotel - a traditional Highland building - was great, we had an astonishing view over Loch Duich with unforgettable sunsets. We stayed there two nights and it was a good location for visiting Isle of Skye. We had a cosy room with a great view of the lake. Food was good as well. The place was very quiet and relaxing, I hope we will go back again!
The hosts were very friendly and supplied lots of information about the area and the apartment before we checked in. The accommodation was well appointed, clean and comfortable. There was everything you would need for a stay. Loved the coffee machine, pantry and TV streaming options. Kyle of Lochalsh is a great base for getting around and the views are beautiful.
Fantastic flat in a lovely setting. Easy to get over to skye and the surrounding villages. Spotlessly clean with comfy beds and modern decor. Equipped with everything you could need for a self catering break. The host Gillian was really friendly and welcoming and I wish we could have stayed longer.
Lovely location, in a tiny seaside hamlet, yet fairly close to the big city (Kyle of Lochalsh). Comfortable room. Remarkable shower, I've never needed an operation manual for a shower before. Wonderful breakfast. Excellent Wifi. Pub down the road did good, if expensive, meals too.
Excellently appointed room, better than a good hotel. Very good breakfast. Because of the bridge the Kyle of Lochalsh is effectively part of Skye so the location is very good for visiting the island. Shelagh knows the area very well and gave us lots of useful information.
Staff, room, facilities and breakfast were good but over-priced for what was provided. It was the most expensive and possibly smallest room in our travels from Shap, Arrochar, Kyle of Lochalsh, Nairn, Elgin and Cumberland.
Breakfast was excellent. Staff were very friendly and helpful at all times. There is a nice bar in the hotel. I didn't have an en suite bathroom but the shared one was nearby and spotless. The bed was very comfortable.
Very handy as a mid point from Glasgow to Skye. Nice location right on Harbour. Very old hotel - wish they had the funds to restore the hotel as due to location it could be an outstanding place. Staff nice and clean .
Great location just along the loch from Eilean Donan castle and handy for Skye. A delightful old hotel with quirky staircases and corridors. Modern breakfast room and comfortable lounges.
Great space
Quality bedding/towels
Helpful hosts

Great location and jumping off point (near the Skye bridge) for Isle of Skye
