Delicious Breakfast!

The breakfast selection was fantastic, with a great variety of hot and cold options. I loved the freshly cooked full Scottish breakfast, which came piping hot and perfectly cooked to order. It set a terrific tone for my day of exploring the distilleries.

The hotel is situated at the edge of town, making it a perfect base to explore the distilleries on the south of the island. It's also close to Laphroaig, Lagavulin, and Ardbeg distilleries.

The hotel offers freshly decorated rooms with lovely colors and a beautiful view across from the ocean. The king bed was very comfy, providing a relaxing stay. The service was exceptional, with staff being super-friendly and always going the extra mile to assist. The location is fantastic for exploring the distilleries on the south of the island and enjoying the beachfront setting. While the dining experience was good overall, it lacked variety in the daily offerings.
