Caladh Inn ★★★

"Good!"

Sandwick Bay Guest House
6.9 (24 reviews)

Sandwick Bay Guest House ★★

📍 30 Millar Rd, Stornoway

"Shocked that this type of place not only still exists but also can charge these exorbitantly high prices. Our room was the only one with en suite (room 9). The establishment smelled of maybe animals (2 cats, 2 dogs) or cigarettes or any other unpleasant odours you can think of.....breakfast had to be chosen the night before, along with time, we were there on time and was immediately served on a cold plate, a luke warm selection. Property very tired but our room was clean enough. Would not recommend but as we found out, you are not spoiled for choice in Stornoway but we will not be back! "

Hebridean Guest House
9.0 (47 reviews)

Hebridean Guest House ★★★★

📍 61 Bayhead Street, Stornoway

"Friendly welcome, impeccably clean good sized room at front of house. Previous reviewer has suggested avoiding a front room… yes, a bit of traffic noise at times but we’re not taking trying to sleep beside a motorway. Things quieten down as the evening progresses and then, in the morning, the passing cars help with waking up. Or, maybe, I just had more relaxing whisky than the other guest 😀 Joking apart… a welcoming host, a very comfortable room and bed, substantial breakfast all at a reasonable price within in an easy level 10 - 15 minute walk of the vibrating centre od pf Stornoway. Works for me…"

County Hotel ★★★

📍 12-14 Francis St, Stornoway

"Nice staff on the desk . Lovely comfy beds But really disappointed in the penthouse room .for the price we paid . Looked rather neglected to me especially the sitting room . Stained dirty carpets hadn’t even been vacuumed there was pink confetti all over the floor under the sofa and under neath sofa Cushions. ( must have been a hen party leftovers ) this was mentioned to staff I was told my comments would be passed on hopefully I will hear back about this as not acceptable when you pat 212 for I night . Coffee table greasy stains but cleaned Either . One if the bedroom sash at top broken and wouldn’t open . Sadly we won’t be back to this hotel"

Sandwick Bay Guest House ★★
"Not an enjoyable visit. Only stayed 45 minutes before deciding to leave. Room was very dated. Needs a complete makeover from the wooden floor to the ceiling. Bathroom (shared) dated back to the 70's. No pre warning of the "big£ dogs the owner delighted in telling us about, in a menacing way. All in all, would not go back and would never recommend to anyone else. I value my friends too much!"

Royal Hotel ★★★
"The room was small but well-equipped, and it was about a 10-15 minute walk from the cruise ship pier. The castle and museum were just across the river; after crossing the bridge and climbing up the slope, you could reach them. The restaurant downstairs was highly recommended."

Cabarfeidh Hotel ★★★★
"Great location, lovely hotel. Room was absolutely perfect. It was really clean, quiet and cosy. Customer Service was really good when I checked in and checked out. The only thing I would say negatively is its quiet expensive for a Room Only basis. If they offered Corporate Rates I would come here every time I am working Stornoway."

Hebridean Guest House ★★★★
"Second time here this year and this was just as good as the first, good location with a short walk into the centre of town. Felt very welcome both times here, the rooms are spotless and comfy. The breakfast is one of the best I’ve had, fresh and cooked to perfection! Next to lews castle grounds if you like a walk. I’ve stayed other places in Stornoway and this is easily the best!"
