Islay House

"We had to book a last minute room here due to work getting done at home. The price wasn’t too bad for the room considering, it was warm and comfortable enough. Housekeeping severely lacking as it was coated with dust and the window sill was especially filthy. Nonetheless the room did the job, bath was nice with plenty of hot water. the bar was pleasant and reasonably priced. Of course the place needs a serious upgrade and a proper team of staff for such a historic building. (Staff on were fine but barely spoke English) It has so much potential and I feel it could be on par with the likes of Prestonfield. Instead of being run like a budget chain hotel."

Another Place - the Machrie

"We enjoyed the privacy as it was at least a km away from the main road. A very nice hideaway if you want to get away from the bustling town. One thing though, please ensure you have your own car/transport covered as public transportation on Islay is not as convenient versus a normal city. Overall, a great place to stay! We’ll be back!"

Port Charlotte Youth Hostel

"What a fantastic hostel. In a former distillery, beautifully located right on a sandy bay with views across the loch. Clean throughout, comfortable beds, well equipped and an extremely helpful and kind warden. Very pleasant lounge with lots of reading matter. One of the very best hostels I've stayed in."

Port Charlotte Hotel

"This smallish hotel has a super location right on the coast with great views across the water. We had a good room with a comfy king size bed and a lovely modern bathroom. It was clean, characterful and well presented with everything you need including free wifi. We arrived at a very busy time (island distilleries open days festival week) but the staff remained helpful, welcoming and friendly throughout our stay. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant which was enjoyable but rather pricy and the seafood was largely overcooked (scallops, halibut). However it was exceptionally hectic so we made exceptions. The excellent skin-on chips with the battered haddock were a joy! Breakfast was also served in the restaurant offering plenty of choice and inviting hot options. Enjoyed our comfortable stay."

Glenegedale House

"Two couples do it. Both are good people. Husband is serious and sincere, wife is kind and kind. It's a short walk from the airport and the bus stop is right in front of you, so the convenience is good and the scenery is perfect."
