What qualities the Caladh lacks in its interior (dated and a bit musty) is more than compensated for by the delightful staff and the excellent food. In fact, we were very impressed by the restaurant. The breakfast buffet offers a 'full Scottish' or continental-style light breakfast while the lunch a dinner menus were quite varied, offering an Indian wrap, a Portuguese chicken sandwich (Nandos!) or local fish. So well done to the head chef and his team!

Staff very pleasant and helpful. Room clean and acceptable, however, disappointed with outlook from the only window, outlook directly on to another room window, no general view whatsoever.

When I say I love this Inn, this is my second year visiting. The hot breakfast is great, customer service warm and friendly without being over done. I just love how they have created such a warm feeling environment to stay in. Its in easy walking distance to all shopping, site seeing, and ferry pick up. Yeah, this is my spot and i'm a budget travel gurl. Oh, oh there is a large grocery store next door that I discovered on this second trip.

This hotel is a huge disappointment. The bathroom was updated and that’s the nicest thing I can think of to say. The rooms were dingy, and well-worn. There was no thermostat in the room and no we have control with the heat/air conditioner. No mini fridge. No ice available. There was only one outlet and USB ports at all. It was extremely difficult for two people to charge, iPads, phones, etc. Additionally, it was noisy. There was ample parking I would never go back to this hotel
