We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay at this wonderful hotel. The clean, modern rooms and friendly, helpful staff made our visit stress-free and comfortable. We will definitely stay again!
The room was wonderfully comfortable and the staff were so friendly and helpful. The shuttle service was prompt and we were relieved to have something taken off our plates in terms of planning on how to get to the airport. We had a great and restful stay!
Free Airport shuttle and breakfast are definitely making this my favorite place for connecting my next morning flight to Stornoway. Testco within walking distance and restaurants too!!
