The hotel has a beautiful location right by the water. The room was well equipped and the shower was great. The breakfast selection was nice, although a bit limited at later hours. Overall, a pleasant stay!

Average

The hotel is a bit tired. No smiles on reception and the breakfast start times are far too late for anyone that wants to have an early start. Food quality average, restaurant service was good.

Hotel with a GREAT View Could Use Some TLC

The hotel has a great view of the harbor which is so lovely! The hotel could be so much more charming just by simplifying the hodge-podge and sprucing it up a bit, it does have character. The rooms had some issues like very old carpet, mildew in the bathroom, the bathroom fan sounded like a 747, and the beds were not very comfortable. The manager so kindly accommodated the booking error with twin beds instead of a double bed.
Tressa, 2-night trip

Lesley, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

We booked this hotel because unfortunately all of the hotels in Portree were sold out or $800+ per night (don’t make the same mistake - book well in advance if you’re going during peak season)! The reviews definitely scared me, it wasn’t that bad but it was also extremely overpriced for what you got. Very very outdated hotel, breakfast is terrible, rooms are not soundproof and they smell like mold. Would not stay here again. Otherwise the staff were nice and the dog was friendly (not sure why they have bad reviews for the dog lol).

Loved the area and they allow dogs to stay!
Rachael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall, this property was what we needed for the night we got onto Skye. We found the staff to be helpful and the bathroom was updated. While the room itself seemed older and was small, the furnishings were new enough and it was clean. We thought this was a good value hotel for the money especially considering the breakfast that was included which provided many options. The location was convenient as well.
Brodie, 1-night trip

Lovely quiet location Friendly helpful staff
Margaret, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our first stop on Skye before travelling up to Staffin. Very comfortable, the room comfortable, if not very large. Nice staff, we were served by a young girl called Lily in the restaurant - what a lovely, smiling face! Thank you!
Bernadette, 1-night trip

Good hotel and good restaurant.
Sidnei, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The breakfast was good but could have been hotter. The plates could have warmee. The staff was excellent and very happy to assist.
Janice, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was nice enough - nothing fancy, but the beds were comfortable enough and the window opened very large (great during the heat wave). Shower was not the best - the hose is not really movable, and the temperature seemed to vary easily. Breakfast buffet, including hot food, was included, which was great to have, though it was not amazing food. Parking can be limited, but reception was able to provide alternatives if the lot and street parking were full - overall, no issue with parking. There is an attached bar that was enjoyable.
Keith, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Kings Arms Hotel is located in a small village called Kyleakin just over the bridge when you arrive to the Isle of Skye. We stayed here because it was significantly cheaper than staying in Portree. Travelling by car, we spent a few days hiking around the island and actually enjoyed staying a bit more remotely. It made commuting to our hikes more timely, but we felt like we got to experience more of the island this way. The town is cozy with a few pubs to eat - basic food but fun, rural vibes. The hotel itself did just the trick. Nothing fancy but the room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was good and the staff were generally friendly and easy-going. Would stay here again.
Ryan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The female receptionist was not friendly or welcoming. Also decor was quite tatty and dated. We did sleep well on a positive note. Lovely location
