We both very much enjoyed ourselves and have been spreading the gospel back home on the merits of their hospitality. The staff were an absolute credit to the owners and a special mention for Kathleen who looked after us so well. We had a superb Hogmanay bash and look forward to staying there again. more

We found this hotel by scouring the internet, we then contacted the hotel direct to ask if there was any deals on offer, as the web-site encourages this, to our delight we were given 3 nights for the price of 2. We found the Balmacara to be a good value hotel near Skye, we stayed for a weekend and had... more

Just back from a stay at the Balmacara Hotel. Extremely disappointed as not as made out to be on website. Is situated on main road and not all rooms face the Loch. Ours was at the back which had no view whatsover, looked on to the back of the new part, but was quiet. Breakfast was a joke - not... more

Stayed just one night at the end of April 2006. Room was in the new part, very clean and comfortable, nice modern bathroom. Dinner was very nice with attentive service. Just one downpoint, the salmon was very overcooked, but otherwise the meal was lovely. We had an early start to catch the ferry from Skye to North Uist, so the... more

The Balmacara Hotel looked great on its website, which promised rooms with views and friendly staff. So I booked single occupancy for one night. On arrival at 5pm-ish I found the front door locked with a notice on window telling guests to go to the public bar (along front of hotel and around corner). The bar was quiet, only one... more

Room was very cold upon arrival. There were problems with Sky TV which left only a shopping channel and sports channel available. The room telephone wasn't working. As I was cold, tired and staying on my own at the hotel I asked if I could check out without being charged, as all I wanted to do was watch TV and... more

My fiance and I went to the Balmacara Hotel in April 2005 as we were touring a number of hotels in the area to see where to hold our wedding reception in 2006. The hotel has undergone an extensive refurbishment since its new owners took over and the lounge area and dining room with its picture windows give a great... more

we stayed at the Balmacara on ther 3rd of July 2005. The manager could not have been any nicer. Our room was very clean and so was the bathroom. We only had a bit of trouble with regulating the hot and cold for the shower. Beautiful view from our room. We had dinner at the hotel and it was simply... more
