Skeabost is a hidden gem on Skye. I typically stay in Portree, but chose this hotel for a change of pace. I was glad I did! The setting on the bay was stunning and the grounds of the hotel were perfect for an afternoon walk. The hotel restaurant was fantastic- exceeded expectations. Well appointed luxury room and bathroom. Convenient location so long as you have a car. Will be back!

I was disappointed in my stay since it was very pricy and the hotel was not what I expected for what I paid. The property itself has charm, is near a pretty river and the lounge room was nice. I also enjoyed the breakfast and Sue was a lovely waitress. However, a lot of the hotel seemed old and outdated. There was a strong musty odor in our room and opening the windows invited bugs so it was a challenge dealing with that. I hoped to fish on the river but the advertised fishing was unguided and overpriced. It did not feel like a four star hotel and I would recommend it only if the price was adjusted for what is actually offered.

For the amount we paid for this room, it should have been larger and more accommodating. The room and the bathroom were very very small and for the amount we paid for it, not worth it. I have to say the sheets on the bed were the best ! Really nice! The staff were very pleasant and more than met our needs. This was our 50th wedding anniversary and they kindly brought us a glass of Prosecco.
