The hotel had a delightful charm with lovely decor that felt inviting, a perfect complement to its historical roots. The cozy lounge area made it easy for us to relax and share stories over a cup of tea.

Better bathroom facilities would enhance the experience.

Had a fantastic time with friends! We explored the local beaches and enjoyed some history at the nearby museum. The staff were super friendly and eager to help. The food in the evenings was top-notch, and the service was spot on!

We had trouble with the room not being cleaned during our stay, which was frustrating since we had to ask for fresh towels.

lack of child-friendly activities

We had a fun two-night stay, enjoying the excellent hot breakfast and quick service. The kids loved the view of Lewis Castle from our room. Plus, it was super convenient being close to the harbor for our family outings.

My kids wished there was a more child-friendly area with activities or games to keep them entertained.

harbor view

local seafood

dated decor

This property offers a stunning harbor view from the room, an ideal spot for anyone wanting to soak in the scenery. The dining experience is also commendable, featuring fresh local seafood that truly stands out.

The room decor definitely feels tired, stuck in a time warp from decades ago. The bathroom setup in some units, particularly Room 31, is less than ideal. navigating can be a challenge due to cramped conditions. the lack of an elevator means dragging bags up a flight of stairs, which can get old quickly. It's also worth noting that the breakfast selection can be greasier than expected, which may not suit everyone's tastes.

The view of the castle from our room was amazing, and the secure tandem storage at their sister hotel was a huge relief. We also loved the swift service in the restaurant and the fantastic langoustines served during dinner.
