A fantastic view from our window over the harbour. Our room was on the top floor in the attic so it was quite small with a sloping ceiling on one side, not ideal for my husband who is quite tall. However, although quite basic it was clean and comfortable, serviced each day if required and perfectly located for Portree. Ideal for a couple of days.
Tips:Lots of restaurants and bars a few minutes walk away but very busy so booking is advised if you are particular about where you eat. If not, places get full quickly and you may have to wait.

We stayed 2 nights firstly room 7 then 2. Both rooms were clean and comfortable.

Lovely place to stay very clean and welcoming. Not a big room but it was perfect for us as we were only there for 2 nights. The room was very well dressed and I especially loved the heated towel rail in the bathroom, it was a nice touch it kept the bathroom at a nice temperature so you weren’t coming out the shower to a cold bathroom. The towels were lovely and thick and the had wash and body wash were lovely too. The tea and coffee facilities were nice with tasty biscuits on the side.

Terrific location, lots of storage and very helpful and friendly staff. Needed a couple of glasses and a shelf in the bathroom.
Tips:Seabreezes/ Cuchullin the best mid-price restaurants. Reservations are necessary for most restaurants in Portree. The Seaflower boat trip with seafood lunch is always a highlight when we come to Skye.

Enjoyable stay; wonderful view. Things to consider for improvements: left window will not stay open - perhaps provide a long prop or have window adjusted. Instant coffee is below the standards for a place this nice. Perhaps purchase a Keurig coffee maker with k-cups. Breakfast locations in Portree opened after tour bus groups departed leaving guests scrambling for items at Co-Op. Perhaps include a few pieces of fruit (apples, bananas) and some light breads (scones or croissants).

4th May 2025:
Well situated, a short walk to city center; LOVED the room, perfect for me, a single traveler (relying on public transport); jaw dropping view from the room over the harbor; clear communication regarding arrival and entry procedures, easy (keys in a labeled envelope awaiting my arrival); clean and tidy; would definately recommend to fellow travelers, and would lodge there again without hesitation.
Tips:I'm a first-time int'l visitor to Skye. I recommend the exclusive, all-day, 'round the island tour, for a general context. I highly connect with Mark @ Skye Geography Tours (https://skyegeographytours.co.uk) for a personalized, in-depth tour with a cordial and knowledgeable local secondary geography teacher.

Very comfortable and clean property, lovely views from the sea view windows. Thanks for the tea and coffee in the room. They offer easy self-check in. We didn't meet a staff - so I wish there was a n/a box. But that's why it's a "4" We only wish we had stayed longer!
Tips:Book your dinner in advance to get a spot. We booked at the Portree Hotel restaurant and there were people waiting for dinner.

I had a lovely room with a view over the quaint harbour and colourful buildings. The room and bathroom were beautifully warm, with lovely big bath towels. As it's a self check in property,I didn't meet any staff but communication and entry was very easy. Parking was so convenient, with a spot available just opposite. The only thing missing, that I would have appreciated, was a drinking glass for water instead of tea/coffee mugs.
Tips:As it's winter, many restaurants are closed but I found The Isle Inn. It's charming, has a lovely open fire and the dinner I had was excellent.

Check in and out were as simple as could be , free parking space in Skye is a bonus, the room although compact has everything you need plus must be one of the best views in Skye,I think my room number 9 must have been recently upgraded as the shower room looks brand new and to a very good standard, I would have to say as it’s 3 flights up might not suit everyone but I found it perfect.
Tips:The sea eagle boat trip is fantastic and I have some amazing pictures of the eagles and seals, minky whale , and porpoise, the skipper knew his stuff and made it a great trip , I went out at 10am .

You have to wait in the establishment. There is a grocery store, so that is an option. We bought food at the grocery when the restaurants were not available.

I was in a small single room at the top of the guest house. The view is outstanding, as is the location. The double bed is very comfortable, and although I had all I needed for two nights, there is no space for a table and chair, and the shower room is tiny. There are some parking spaces, but getting one can be tricky. I found the hosts lovely, and communication was excellent.

Staff were very kind and helpful! The bed was incredibly comfortable and the bathrooms were clean and big! The one little point I have is that the bathroom door didn't close right. It wasn't an issue for me but something to be mindful of :)
Tips:Book restaurants in advance...I didn't and had to get take out most nights. The Isle of Skye candle co. had some last minute spots available on my last night on Skye and had incredibly tasty pizza's! And if you want to really experience the highlands instead of just seeing them, I'd recommend renting a bike/ebike from bikes on the brae.

Loved our stay at the Coolin View. Awesome staff that gave us great tips on what to see and what to skip. Quiet, clean, beautifully curated space centrally located in Portree. Parking was always available directly across the street. Couldn’t ask for more!
Tips:Hike Man of Storr in the late afternoon/evening when the crowds have dwindled and the light is best. Drive to Neist Point Lighthouse for the ultra scenic sea views. Hike the Quiraing for other-worldly landscapes. The MOST important thing I learned from Portree is to make food reservations before you come. The food is great, but FULLY BOOKED during summer months. MacKenzie’s Bakery, Dulse and Brose, Birch coffee were all great.

Coolin View provided us with quaint and clean guest rooms which met all our needs. The location was perfect! Restaurants and shops were all within walking distance. If needed, there are six car spaces conveniently located across the street. The staff always greeted us with a smile and friendly hello when we saw them. The check-in and check-out process was super easy!
Tips:Given the high number of visitors to Portree, be sure to book dinner reservations at the local restaurants. Our favorite cafes for breakfast and lunch were Relish and Birch. Most of the businesses are locally owned so use cash instead of a credit card. it will be greatly appreciated!

I am so extremely happy with my adorable room in Coolin View! It was very clean, and had everything that I needed! The bed, pillows, and blankets were so comfy and cozy! Thank you for a wonderful stay in one of the cutest towns that I’ve ever stayed in!
Tips:I enjoyed coffee and the best doughnuts ever at MacKenzie’s bakery, and recommend it to anyone that stays here! The pastrami panini at Relic’s was great! Antler’s bar and grill had fantastic fish and chips! And my favorite meal of my whole trip to Scotland was the lobster linguini at Dulse and Brose! Their white chocolate blonde brownie with chocolate ice cream and fresh berries was also so wonderful!

Room number 9, although small- was lovely and had a stunning view of the harbour. The tv, tea and coffee facilities and bed were all spot on. The bathroom was immaculate and the heated towel rail and LED mirror were excellent. We really enjoyed our 2 night stay here and if we are visiting Portree again we would definitely stay at Coolin View again.
Tips:Portree has a lovely vibe and the square has a few pubs and restaurants to choose from. The menus in most places are limited and it is difficult to get a table so it is advisable to phone and book before you go. The Antlers was lovely, but really expensive. Revive is a new place and the food was lovely. We found it difficult to eat anywhere on our last morning for breakfast so bought a roll from the bakery to have in the car. Lots of lovely shops for gifts. All the people we met were lovely and very helpful. The drive to attractions- eg fairy pools and Dunvegan are singletrack in places but well worth the effort as the scenery is stunning. I would recommend the boat trip at Dunvegan to see the seals and visiting Neist point lighthouse- the walk is steep but worth it- even visiting the car park is a must- no toilets oot food/drink here. There are toilets at the Fairy pool car park though!! You can see Old man of Storr on your way to Kilt rock and Mealt falls and then carry on to the Quiraing so I would recommend doing them all in 1 visit.

great location for a short stop while travelling to and from the hebrides. very clean and cosy, with shops, bars and restuarants nearby. only slight issue was when the front door is being opened by other guests it does cause all the room doors to move/rattle (if its windy outside). we ended up wedging ours to stop it moving. might be an idea to have a newer, better sealed inner door to help prevent this. this said, its still an excellent place to stay.

They didn't mind: they found us a small corner in the house to store our suitcases. They also gave me an extra key to enter the building and collect our suitcases after check-out. Thank you for your trust! Well-located building with a beautiful view. It's a shame there's no breakfast (but we knew that beforehand).

We booked the smallest room (Single) knowing full well it would be tight. It was roomier than we expected! We were able to have all our bags in the room with us (4) and there was still room to move around. We left the windows cracked to keep the room cool. They made the bed and took the trash while we were out, which we didn't expect only being there 2 nights, but were grateful. It was very enjoyable. We were lucky enough to land parking spots the entire time we were there. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS as a place to stay when in Portree. It was central to many of the most popular hikes in the area. The town is very quaint and adorable and the people are splendid.
Tips:Many of the shops an restaurants have "short" hours. Be sure to research their times before you arrive. We had so many hikes planned we missed some shopping and dining. There are MANY fantastic hiking trails very close to Portree. To name a few: Quiraing, Old Man Stoor and The Fairy Pools. We were only in the area for three days, but one could EASILY spend a week or more on the Isle of Skye. Make sure you spend plenty of time planning to get the most out of your time! Side note: make sure to buy Midge spray for the summer. The little buggars are a menace!

Tips:Beautiful Island to drive and hike. Need two nights so you have a full day. Portree is very pretty and very crowded. We were lucky to get a spot at the last restaurant we tried the first night at 8, and had to eat at 530 to get a spot the second night. A few high end places take reservations, but do that days in advance. Try the Cullen Skink - smoked haddock chowder!

Great view and location, cozy structure and clean rooms. We stayed at coolin view on a particularly hot day and our room, being on the top floor, sadly, remained hot and humid throughout our stay. I understand that there's normally no need for cooling systems in Skye, but it should be noted nonetheless.

The room is nice, great view and good location. But, when we arrived there was no place to stop - and this was the decision point for us to choose this hotel, as we were in a road trip. Also, the room is small, but for 1 night, as we stayed, was enough. Another thing is that there is no lift, so plan your luggage accordingly.

This was a very unique place. I would like to suggest replacing the old dirty carpet with some type of hard flooring. It could be easily cleaned and help with the musty smell. It was very quiet. Would also like to suggest that the parking be for Coolin View guest only and not people sitting in their van eating Chinese food and talking on their cell phones.

Aardige host met fijne tips voor het eten. En hij wees ons op de mogelijkheid van drukte die dag omdat er een cruiseschip in de haven zou aankomen. Konden we op anticiperen. Zicht op de haven en super dichtbij het dorp/supermarkt/postkantoor etc. Kamers op de bovenste verdieping waren wel klein, maar zicht op de haven maakte het verblijf goed. De bedden lagen heerlijk. We hadden gehoopt op een gezamenlijke ruimte voor spelletje o.i.d. om met ons gezelschap van 4 personen nog even te kunnen chillen. Alles was keurig schoon. Ik zou het aanbevelen. En isle of sky is echt fantastisch!

Perfect location for our 4 nights on Skye. Lack of facilities didn't matter as shops and restaurants were so close by. It was great to be advised to book restaurants ahead as there seems to be such a widespread staffing issue. Helpful friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

A wonderful facility! The location, accommodations, view, and checkin were amazing. The staff was instantly responsive with any questions. So kind and so considerate.
Tips:Skye Bus Tours was great. Mackenzie’s Bakery is one of the best to be enjoyed. Staffing is a struggle in meeting supply and demand, so reservations are used. You can make reservations for the next night by stopping into a restaurant. A few restaurants don’t take reservations and you just wait a bit at the door or in the bar to be called. There is also a Co-op grocery store for quick and grab food, as well. The people are so kind. With staffing shortages and unpredictable weather, it’s best to be prepared to be flexible and roll with the situation.

The hotel owners are truly generous and altruistic. They facilitated and took a good care of every guests with their sincerity and love. Their hospitality went far beyond my expectations. I was so impressed with all services provided. I could not recommend their services highly enough. They were truly brilliant. They aimed to ensure that every guests had the most perfect and memorable days in Portree. This experience will be lasted forever in my memory. The room is really lovely, cozy, homey and clean. I could see a stunning view from the window. I truly enjoyed my stay at Coolin view and I would definitely visit Coolin View in the near future.

Coolin View is in a great location and ideal if all you need is somewhere to sleep. It was more expensive than other places we stayed in Skye with better facilities and breakfast included but this is probably because it’s in Portree and our stay coincided with the annual Portree music festival.
Tips:As the accommodation does not include breakfast, we’d recommend the Granary on Portree Square. Lovely atmosphere and good food.

We stayed three nights in room 7 and can definitely recommend it. The room was on the smaller side but had a decent closet with hangers and shelves, plus a luggage rack. Plenty of room under the beds to store our bags. View was amazing! We do recommend that two keys be provided to allow for independent excursions.
Tips:We enjoyed hiking the old man of storr but it was crowded. The fairy pools trail was super crowded with people swimming in the pools which made photography difficult. I would recommend trying less popular hikes. The coastal path that begins near the hotel surprisingly had no one else on it in the evening and had super views.

El hostal está en Portree, un precioso y pequeño pueblo pesquero para visitar. Coolin View nos puso una habitación con vistas impresionantes al mar y a la zona más fotografiada del lugar, la habitación estaba equipada de todo, incluida calefacción la cual te hacía la estancia más acogedora y calentita. Te dejan una pequeña bandeja con un detalle de té, café y galletas que es de agradecer. Todo estaba muy limpio y el personal súper amable y simpático.
Tips:Cerca de Coolin View hay un supermercado, por si necesitáis comprar cualquier cosa, eso si, el hotel no tiene frigorífico, así que no sea nada que necesite frío. También hay varios restaurantes en el canal del puerto para comer o cenar.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Coolin View with our two kids, ages 6 and 8. They loved their cosy bunk bed. The room had enough space for all 4 of us and the tea kettle and coffee and tea were a lovely bonus. The guest house was easy to find and the check in process was easy and well explained, before arrival. We arrived more than an hour early and our room key was already waiting for us! Parking was always available and location for sight-seeing on Isle of Skye was perfect. We will stay again and we highly recommend Coolin View.
Tips:We recommend the Antlers Restaurant as they had a great kids menu. The Cafe Arriba has a great breakfast selection, including items for kids and a warm, friendly service. The Granary is lovely for a coffee break. Our must see—hike to old man of store, leath falls, Staffin beach, Quiraing, Fairy glen and fairy pools. Dunvegan castle is also just 30 mins drive away.

I received a very warm welcome from Sergi and Tati who are great hosts. They accommodated my early check-in and even gave me an upgraded room upon arrival, as well as cool tips on the area. The room had a new bathroom, a very comfy bed and a nice view on the harbour.
Tips:Because of being there during the “off-peak” season, most restaurants were closed but I did try the Portree Hotel which was more than fine (good beers too) and the Chippy fish ‘n chips (very good fish). I recommend going to the Old Man of Storr and do the local circular walk (Scorrybreac) in Portree👌

We have to say that the other residents were not very concerned about letting go of doors allowing them to bang constantly. Being on the Ground Floor we did expect a bit of noise (road traffic). Having a family room and a 6 year old, we are in earlier than others and our bedtime isn't everyone's. Thank fully our Son slept pretty well. It didn't help that a resident parked their car on the guest house side of the road over night, so locals passing before a very tight and blind bend were sounding their horns on passing the guest house. Ignorance on the part of the resident, no fault of the guest house. The room was fine, warm, clean and pretty spacious. we were room 1 on ground floor. If you are coming with a family, I'd suggest asking for the upper floor rooms, might help with the noise issue. It is perfectly located for wandering to the main streets. We were ok parking, but we were out of season, I'd hate to think what Portree would be like in the height of season for parking. There is no breakfast, and no contact with staff. The room is very much a bed for the night. The supermarket is 5 minutes walk away, so you can grab what you need if you need a snack in the room. We went to Jans/Red brick cafe for breakfast as a friend recommended it. We would too. It is a wee drive away, but the food is good, and the supply shop there has everything you need, or might have forgotten so worth a rummage. We had planned on breakfast in the village, but the cafe timings were 9am in most instances, so Jans/Red brick was 0830 so perfect for a ravenous 6 year old with parents needing caffeine.
Tips:Seek out the Jans/Red brick cafe for breakfast before your travels around the island, you won't be disappointed. We had pizza in the caberfeidh which was fabulous. Remember your smart phone, as they prefer you order on an app (current restrictions). We ventured North, stopped at the kilt rock, an corran dinosaur beach (found a footprint - make sure you go for low tide) and then onto the fairy glen for a walk. We were in low season, and the weather was crisp and dry (we were fortunate). So just a few hardy tourists on the go. If you have children, be sure to visit the Aros centre for the play area. Great on a rubbish day for burning off child energy. Cafe there, cinema and an incredibly well appointed grocery section. Under current restrictions you need to book sessions at the Aros for the play, just phone up in advance.

Very convenient location . I have given a 4 for facilities because there seemed to be a fault with the bedside lamp in our room (6). Other than that it was clean and tidy. Staff were very helpful on changing our booking at short notice. I was disappointed that only after we had booked was I informed that there would.be no breakfast service (due to Covid).
Tips:We stayed at the Coolin View in early January and found that a number of hotels/cafés had closed for the winter period. Some only reopening at Easter. Others were operating to reduced hours. Just something to be aware of but can be planned around

Great location. Just few minutes walk to town centre. The place was clean and comfortable. The only thing bad/ unsatisfactory about our stay was the macerator in our toilet, which caused lots of noise. It was weird.

Absolutely great location. We had a room with a view right over the harbour which was stunning, spoiled only by the fact that the seal on our double glazing on our window was broken and the glass was all steamed up on the inside. The room was very small but very well equipped. And it was a bit too hot also. Check in was easy and breakfast item were replenished as needed. Would definitely recommend.
Tips:Local Portree Hotel has greenhouse pods outside which have Bluetooth speakers, a fan and heaters. Absolutely brilliant idea but recommend booking. We were lucky to get one for an hour one night in between bookings. Will definitely go back when we visit again. Great fish and chip shop at the harbour (you’ll see the queue). Otherwise the scenery is all stunning so just walk and do the usual tourist trips. You won’t be disappointed. We went for 3 nights but it wasn’t long enough. I think we’ll book at least a week next time.

There is a small supermarket and coffee places for breakfast very close by. Also lots of places to eat recommend the new Am Talla 1820

Tips:It is a lovely peaceful guest house, well Located just a few minutes walk from the centre of Portree. Best advice is to book ahead for dinner out as everywhere is very busy.

The beds were comfy (would of been nice to of had two pillows) We didn’t see any staff while staying due to the Covid regulations, but they were only a text or phone call away and were always polite and helpful when we did phone.

Excellent location close to shops and restaurants. Very clean and well organised. Easy check in and check out. If you needed any more clean towels, tea, coffee, fruit, breakfast cereal bars etc., just needed to tick a form leave at reception, and it was delivered to outside your room next morning. Stayed in one of the top floor rooms. Great views of the harbour. The only thing that spoiled the view was that the bottom pane of the window was misted up so had to stand to see the view. Please can you sort this out.
Tips:Good central location. Lots of restaurants and cafes to choose from. Portree Square is only a few minutes walk, where all the buses, coaches, and minibuses arrive and depart, great for getting to and from the island, and for day trips. Visit the tourist information centre in Portree. They were very friendly and helpful, advising on lovely walks in the area, sightseeing, and bus timetable information. Some shops and restaurants either only accept cash or card payments, so take a mixture of both.

A lovely little room - spotlessly clean - with everything you could possibly need. Really perfect.
Tips:With a lot of pubs and restaurants closed due to Covid - recommend booking a 'greenhouse' at the Portree hotel - or take away fish and chips from the harbour fish and chip shop - also a take away from The Rosedale was delicious.

We enjoyed our last minute stay here, I was a bit apprehensive when we booked but was pleasantly surprised. Our room was very clean and had everything we needed really.

Lovely place to stay. Room really nice and super shower/toilet room. Breakfast provided to room good with plenty tea/coffee etc. Great size flat screen tv with good channel choice. Good WiFi. Beds comfy. Very close to centre and all amenities in Portree. What more could you want. Parking first come first served but not a problem, just need to be careful of the pavement kirb when parking as not good for low cars. Additional parking close by.

The place was very lovely & welcoming, nice & clean with everything we needed for our stay. Nice breakfast selection to start our exploring/walking day ahead. Service for any replacement was quick & efficient. A few minor points: Parking Double beds are very squeaky,everytime the person on top moved on it, was a little odf putting. Washing machine noise could heard n felt which was slightly off putting. Condensation on the window (spoilt the views) a little. Family had the most amazing 1st visit to Isle of Skye, certainly be back. Thank you for you kind hospitality.
Tips:Amazing location with breathtaking views to wake up to every morning. ❤ Restaurant & takeaway within walking distance. Very little gluten free option- even for places that advertise, they couldn't cater. (Restricted menus) go prepared as very little in shops too.

We had a great stay, right in the centre of Portree over looking the harbour. The guest house was really well set up for COVID-19, contactless booking-in, plenty of hand-sanitiser. Very clean, everything looked as new. Although there's no breakfast Eddie and Elaine there is complimentry, teas, coffees, porridge and biscuits of all kinds.
Tips:There's lots of restaurants only five minutes walk away along with grocery stores, cafes and craft shops. We didn't venture up the Cuillin Hills but we could see them from our room. We also tried a few of their craft beers from the Isle of Skye Distillers... fabulous!
Would Recommend: Yes

10th September 2020:
Due to the current circumstances breakfast could not be provided, however the owners did as much as they could by placing fruit, porridge tubs and cereal bars in the room. The key was exactly where they said it would be, and everything was spotless. My only issue - which wasn't there fault - was the parking of fellow guests, who took up too much space! Might be an idea to place a couple of signs asking drivers to park conscientiously, and closer together. Otherwise excellent stay. Thank you
Tips:Currently I would say it is extremely advisable to book an evening meal in advance. Alot of people are visiting, and due to restrictions the pubs and restaurants they can only operate at half capacity, so getting in anywhere is a struggle. Beautiful place to visit though.

Easy to book and rooms are in a great location. I would use again. Rooms are nice too. For me it was perfect as it had all i needed.

Tips:If you run out of ideas where to go there's a nice hiking you can do even on the windiest days. It's called Scorrybreac Trail and lets you see Portree from a distance. It's a peaceful area and you can relax on the seashore in several spots.

Lovely accomodation. The private parking was especially useful. Comfy bed, great location, good pricing, nothing to complain about! The only, very minor, nitpicky thing is that the warm water in the shower took a while to get going. If that's the only slight negative of a place, then you know it's a great place. Would definitely book again if I'm back in Portree!
Tips:I had dinner at the 'Lower Deck' restaurant, it was delicious fresh seafood. The Quiraing was breathtaking, just stunning views. I also really enjoyed the Coral beach!
Would Recommend: Yes

20th August 2020:
Great location with parking although it can be a bit hairy due to the close proximity of a blind corner. Covid restrictions meant contactless check in was in operation so did't meet any staff. Telephone booking was handled very well especially seeing as I booked on the arrival day due to some booking error elsewhere. Covid breakfast in a box did the job but no substitute for a full Scottish. Overall a pleasant stay. Thanks
Tips:Me and my friends ate at the Antlers Grill and the food was very good, much better than the surroundings would have suggested. Due to COVID booking is essential. Being in Portree there are lots of choices for eating and drinking and you are not too far away from the Old Man of Stor and the Quiraing.

Myself and my partner stayed here for 3 nights whilst on the Isle of Skye. We are still raving about the island itself, but we are also still talking about how much we loved our wee room and where we were staying whilst on the island. The staff that we met were lovely, and we understand that things might not be ideal for everyone right now given the Covid-19 situation, but our stay was absolutely wonderful because the staff done everything that they could to make the stay as peaceful and comfortable as it could be. We will definitely be back to Skye and back to the Coolin View. All the best, Matt
Tips:Thoroughly recommend making the trip to the Old Man of Storr, but be prepared for a tough walk. The fairy pools are stunning, a must see. The restaurant at the Portree Hotel was wonderful. Staff there were great and the food and cocktails were tremendous. The ‘Taste of India’ restaurant is also worth a visit if you like Indian food. Great hospitality and the food was outstanding.

We travelled to Skye at the easing of lockdown and I was lucky enough to book Coolin View. The location overlooking the harbour is fabulous, amazing views and so central for all our needs. I booked a "compact double" and it was compact, but it was such a lovely room and ensuite shower room, all suited our needs perfectly. The cleanliness and comfort was spot on. The additional efforts of the Coolin View put in place for Covid were all excellent. If I return to Skye, I would definitely return to Coolin View.
Tips:Dulce and Brose, 2 doors away from Coolin View was a great place for dinner. We also ate at A Taste of India, just around the corner. For breakfasts, lunch etc, Cafe Arriba round the corner was fabulous as well. I all venues, staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly, and all were very conscientious regarding Covid regulations. Had a lovely walk Scorrybreac Circuit, def need walking boots though! And don't leave Portree without closely reading the town map in the central car park, hilarious!!!

The only downside is they don't do breakfast but there are plenty of places nearby that do. Good value for money if you are just looking for a room for a good nights sleep.
Tips:Try the Red Brick Cafe for breakfast, a short drive but worth it. The Dulce & Brose or Merchants Bar are both good for an evening meal.

Walking distance to grocery and town shopping. Tons of restaurant options at your fingertips and within 5 min walk. Takes credit card which was nice. Lots of things in Skye are cash only.

Room very small but clean and adequate. Bed v comfy. Tea/coffee was minimal.
Tips:Had fantastic tapas at Rosedale hotel. Another fantastic meal and drinks in dulce and brose. Mediocre food in seafood restaurant at pier (the 1 you can’t book) and Mediocre lunch in cafe arriba. However we had such a fantastic time in Skye, scenery was mins blowing. Can’t wait to move there

Good Scottish breakfast with service. Nice room with sea view. But do not expect too much space in a family or 4 person room. But for a family or 4 friends it is ok. Bathroom with toilet in the room. We arrived after the “normal” check in time and informed the staff by phone in advance. The key was stored in the Guest house. Nice service. Price performance: fair

We loved our stay at Coolin Guest House. We were met and greeted with friendly service when we checked in to our comfortable and sparkling clean room. The staff went out of their way to find us a room at a neighboring guesthouse for an extra night when we decided to stay longer and they were fully booked. Great location on the harbour in Portree.
Tips:Portree is very busy - make accommodation and dinner reservations well in advance! Skye is gorgeous, we loved our hikes to the Fairy Pools and the Old Man of Storr. A highlight of our trip to Scotland.

Lovely location with great view of the harbour from the room. Plenty tea and coffee available in room. Breakfast was excellent. Despite being on a busy road we had no difficulty in sleeping. Parking a bit of a lottery as I don't think there are enough spaces for every room.
Tips:Portree is a good location for exploring the island. Town was fairly busy in May and I expect it would get much busier come July/August. Its an expensive place to eat and check restaurant reviews carefully.

We had to check in late as our tour was behind schedule getting into Portree, however a single phone call was all that was needed and we were set up to get our room when we arrived with no fuss. We had a great view from our room and the amenities were great. The location is still close to everything with a Co-op, restaurants, and shops just around the corner.
Tips:Portree is very walkable, and would recommend taking a little wander. Pop into the shops for some souvenirs, take a peek at the menus of the available restaurants, and get a feel for this cute capital of Skye.

Perfect Family Room for a short stay. Location was excellent and great views! Very clean, and although small it had everything we needed. My kids liked the bunk beds. Baby cot smelled a bit like mildew, probably from little use, but it also had some black stains on the mesh (?). Breakfast is in the next door restaurant so it was fine except ONLY from 8-9am. When I requested 7:30 I was told it would be okay but restaurant hadn't opened yet. They were kind enough to let us in and have continental but out of pure luck they happened to arrive early. I'd still go back and book same place though, I was very happy! Checking in and out was the most easiest EVER. :)
Tips:Make dinner reservations if you plan to dine in Portree. Unexpectedly we were turned away from several places that were fully booked around 7pm. The places we ate at were fantastic though. Location very close to Old Man of Storr. If you plan to do any shopping this time of year, go early because all gift shops closed by 5:30pm which was disappointing since that's when we usually returned from sight seeing. Grocery store was very close by and open 7am-11pm which was great for grabbing food for our roadtrips early in the morning.

Possibly the best views over the harbour, comfy rooms warm and clean. Staff especially helpful and wonderful bistro attached. I would certainly recommend it as it was a fabulous location and provided for an enjoyable stay and experience of Portree. Im a porridge eater and would say - give customers a choice of milk or water. It doesn't suit everyone when made the traditional way. Honey/cinnamon can also make it a much more enjoyable breakfast- but the cooked breakfast was spot on and not so large to leave you stuffed. Overall a great stay thank you and very friendly.

Beautiful location, especially the views from the room. We came during quite a heat wave, so the room was extremely warm, making sleep difficult. We were hoping there would have been a fan or something provided, but I assume many places in Skye don't even keep fans in storage due to mild and cool weather year round. Breakfast was ok--very small portions. There were four of us in the family room and we found the room much too small to fit four people, especially considering the price.

Location was fantastic & parking was easy and free. We arrived on a late ferry so checked in with the restaurant next door, I cannot recommend then highly enough they were outstanding the service was fantastic and the food was great! Its easy to understand why table reservations are necessary at peak times! Our room was on the top floor, my first impressions were that it was very warm and cramped. However it was a hot day, the room was clean and the toiletries etc were great. The bed was comfortable and the shower was powerful. For one night it was perfect but for a longer stay a bigger room would be better.
Tips:The restaurant at number 1 was fantastic the service was great and the food was delicious! Don't leave without checking out a shop called OR (on the main street) for quirky keepsakes and quality gifts. Go EARLY to the fairy pools by 10:30AM it was resembling Blackpool! Enjoy Skye and if you can visit Harris!

My ONLY complaint is that, for some reason, we weren't provided full-sized towels. Drying off with hand towels was a bit precarious. HOWEVER, it did not diminish the quality of our stay. It's an adorable, quaint place with a STUNNING view of the harbor. The staff is incredibly helpful--they helped us find a room at another property when we had to stay in Portree an extra night due to weather, and one of the employees even gave us a ride to and from the square so we'd be on time for our tour bus! They're absolutely amazing and I hope to stay there again when we make our way back to Skye. :)

Tips:Talisker distillery is a short bus journey away from Portree to Carbost, where you can also visit the Oyster Shed which is a 10 min walk from the distillery and has an excellent selection of seafood - unfortunately it was closed at the time of our visit so make sure you check their Facebook for when they are open!

The beautiful images of the town from sunrise to sunset are a lovely bonus if you step across the road for great photos. The location is walking distance (all hills, so bring walking shoes) from shops and restaurants and it’s easy to feel like a local from the moment you step away from your bus or car. We loved our stay, hope to someday visit again, and highly recommend the Coolin Inn!
Tips:Most shops, as in other Highlands towns, close up by five, but restaurants and pubs were open later for the many tour buses and cars that seemed to arrive with great frequency. While obviously a true tourist town, there is a lovely sense of history and charm that breaks through in the friendly area.

The room was really large and had more amenities than most other B & B's of it's size. John was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the continental breakfast. It had many options and quality items available such as the fresh fruit salad.
Tips:Enjoyed the walk to the fish ladder. There is a nice visitor center there with free toilets. Also we did another trail walk from the center of Pitlochry (Eradour Path). We either got off the path or the path was not marked correctly, but enjoyed it anyways. Hattie's had good pastries, but the sandwiches were nothing special. Cafe Biba had a nice atmosphere and good food. Quaint town and beautiful fall colors. Would have liked more time there.

Great location and the room was fine, but this place is not quiet. Maybe it was just where we stayed (first floor, window on main street), but we could hear everything that happened in the lobby, upstairs, and on the street like it was in our own room. Otherwise, we had a great stay.

An awesome place to stay. The wife and I loved it. We could see the bay through our window. We stayed in the upstairs (compact) one bedroom.

The host was so nice and made us feel right at home. Our room was up 4 flights and my husband has a heart condition so it was wonderful that our host carried our bags. The room was small but had a wonderful view and was spotlessly clean. We loved having breakfast in the next door restaurant. It was delicious and well serviced. We also ate dinner in the same restaurant and it was by far the best meal of our trip so far.
Tips:We had a nice meal at the Portree Hotel. We enjoyed our tour of Skye by Skye Scenix tours. The hostel laundromat was a lifesaver.

The location is perfect, with beautiful views over rhe harbour. The only downside is that there is no sitting room. Howver all other things compensate including a very competetive price compared to other accommodation in Portree,

I really appreciated the warm welcome from Eddie. The road to Skye was closed for the afternoon into evening so I arrived rather late. Eddie didn't miss a beat. Very happy start to my visit. Fabulous staff.
Tips:I book singles, so can only speak for one. My room was just big enough for my needs and the tea set up on an extra wide window sill. I spent many hours there with tea, writing and watching the storms come through over the harbor and the mountains beyond. Wonderful. The bathroom was very nicely modeled. The staff were so friendly and the breakfast next door a great start to the day. I peeked into a double room as it was cleaned and it seemed quite spacious.

This guest house is in a perfection location and front rooms have a spectacular view over the bay and it is very near village centre. Parking is at a premium but the owner was really helpful about moving his car so we could get a slot near the guest house. Only downside about this guest house is the breakfast which is limited. Croissants, oatcakes or rolls would have helped.

Straight from the off, Eddie who checked me in was so welcoming and friendly and even gave me a map and recommended places to visit. The single room was lovely and clean and a good shower. Such a quiet place to stay too which I think is perfect . Only drawback is a separate loo but that's me being picky. Even wifi is possible here so I was happy. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay here if on a tighter budget and to speak to Eddie who is very helpful for your stay
Tips:I'd recommend using the local coop just 2 min walk from coolin view and the chippy just near the harbour . The restaurants are quite pricy and the portions are quite à la carte

Excellent owners! Malcolm being my favourite! I noticed that they were very friendly and helpful with all the guests in recommending great days out, travel estimation times to their chosen day trips and local food recommendations. Very knowledgeable about the island. The hotel is based in the centre of Portree, just a few minutes from the local shops and cafes but situated in a quiet location overlooking the harbour. Breakfast and wifi both provided. Would stay again and will definitely recommend for my friends.

What a find! Excellent location and our room had a view to die for, looking over Portree bay and the Cuillin hills. Clean bright room, comfy bed with flat screen television and ensuite. Breakfast is optional, allowing guests to decide the night before if breakfast is required. Full breakfast and friendly staff kicks off the day nicely. The owners, brothers Jim and Eddie, are Glasgow guys and the banter flows nicely! Parking facilities a couple of metres from the front door with a small picnic bench area overlooking the bay. Wifi is free. Would definitely be my first choice next visit to Skye.
Tips:Portree is busy. Recommend booking a restaurant as the more popular ones down in the harbour and a couple of recently opened ones are in great demand. Jim and Eddie will keep you right. Although we had fancied a fish restaurant, we hadn't booked so we ended up eating in the Royal Hotel which was excellent. The Isles Bar is a riot with live music and friendly locals. If you have a car, recommend the drive down to Elgol where you have the option of a small cruise boat or 12 man rib to take you round the Cuillins and seal spotting. We did the rib. Great fun! Can't wait to go back.

The location is ideal if you wish to eat out at night and not drive. The view is stunning and being able to park outside guest house is a huge advantage. The rooms are clean,the white linen bedding and bath towels are of superb quality. There is plenty of tea and coffee for the room. The staff are helpful,friendly and guided us towards a fab itinerary for our stay. The breakfast is generously delivered with locally sourced produce. Plenty freshly brewed coffee,as much as you wish.
Tips:We loved the Cafe in Portree round the corner from co-op. Food was excellent 5's all round. When going to Neist point(well worth visit although not for young kids) a visit to red roof cafe in Glendale is a must. This delight would compete with the best contemporary cafe/restaurants in the uk. The quality of their baking and locally sourced savory platters blew me away. A complete joy. The oyster shed behind the talisker distillery was amazing! Skye weavers well worth the visit . When visiting skye skins go back the way you come ad the other takes you in a loop. Lovely scenery but makes for a longer drive. Bring a flask to make your own tea and coffee as there are lots of places to stop and take in scenery with a cuppa!!!!

Great location,very handy for pubs restaurants always busy! room great view over harbour. Only negative point were poor soundproofing from bathrooms adjacent,towel rail and mirror light not working. Bathroom floor on slope and tile grouting put in with a shovel.sorry my construction eyes. Great base for exploring island stunning views and walks
Tips:Book your meals as walking around in rain looking for table is not fun as most were full by 6: 30. Be prepared for all seasons weather in every hour !
Would Recommend: Yes
Owner Response:Thank you for taking time to write your review. Apologies regarding the light not working. If you had brought it to our attention during your stay we would have changed the bulb. With regards to the towel rail the switch is on the outside of the bathroom. I apologise if this was not brought to your attention when you were shown your room at first. Hopefully we will see you again at some point in the future.

Great rooms with wonderful sea view and very hospitable hosts! The breakfast was great as well and offered both basics and special/custom made dishes. A perfect spot if you want to stay in Portree which is close to perfect if you want to discover the whole island. It's just in the middle of everything.
Tips:The Chandlery and the restaurant at The Marmalade Hotel are great places to eat. Make sure to visit Skye Baking Company in Portree and The Sheiling/Ellas Café in Uig when you're there! Great food and very friendly and hospitable staff. Both places do also offer quite a surprise in the "non food section" - don't expect just to eat there. And don't expect your wallet to be full when leaving... :-)

I liked everything. As a joke, I requested - via the booking site's special requests box - a picture of a Greyhound to be placed somewhere in the room. We were traveling around Scotland and booked at 5 different locations, each time requesting a picture of some sort of dog to be displayed in the room. Coolin View was the ONLY one to oblige. Eddie (the owner I presume) was awesome, as was the breakfast staff. The view was spectacular over Portree's harbor and there is an absolutely spectacular walk, The Scorrybreac Circuit, literally around the corner. Brilliant place to stay.

Tips:Definitely do a morning sightseeing trip on the local bus service and then again in the afternoon if you have a full day there. We didn't experience any lunch or dinner meals that were better than just ok. which was a great disappointment. Fabulous array of souvenirs (on the "expensive but worth it" scale) which we didn't see elsewhere in Scotland.

Good cooked breakfast included in the room price. Kettle and coffe+tea in the room. Everything was very clean, new modern bathroom... Staff was friendly, but could have been a little bit more open like we've seen it in other places we've stayed during this trip. Of course, the boss himself was very nice to us.... I can only reccommend staying here!

Warm welcome, spotlessly clean room although small it was ideal for my 2 night stay. Very good quality breakfast. Overall I really enjoyed my short break a big part of this was due to the level of service experienced.
Tips:Bosville great for food, went to the Aros on Saturday evening great concert featuring 3 brilliant Celtic/Folk musicians,great walks fresh air and peace and quiet.

Mila and Claire were awesome. The morning breakfast was delicious and cooked to order. The shower had fantastic pressure and the room was comfortable.
Tips:We were there during the "off" season, so very little was open. We did enjoy two restaurants, The Dining Room at the Caledonian was very good and the restaurant at the Bosville Hotel was excellent. Both had very friendly staff and servers. There were a few shops open offering some unusual bits and pieces.
