Hotel Dunollie (Broadford, United Kingdom)

Experiencing all that the Isle of Skye has to offer is so much better when the Dunollie hotel is a base. The sea air and coastal ambiance plays off of the bed and breakfast from the outside as well as the inside, and you feel like you've been transported

Adding to the lovely ambiance is a menu that nicely reflects the coastal region. The ingredients are fresh, and much is locally produced and seasonal. Add the beautiful sky views at sunrise and sunset, and the meals are even lovelier.

The staff is always on hand to help with luggage and shopping, assist with touring plans, and lend an ear for making your stay superb. They're a great bunch of people to have available during your vacation.

If you have issues with mobility or don't want to have to always rely on staff assistance, you may want to request a ground floor room. Getting to and from the upper rooms can be tiring.

The rooms sadly appear outdated, worn, and in string need of renovation. The bathrooms too also look past their prime, with fixtures that should be replaced. Both the sleeping room and the loo have layouts that are a bit cramped or awkward.

The smoke detectors are extremely sensitive, and occasionally prone to going off without valid concern. While it's certainly good that there's no danger, it nevertheless does interrupt sleep and quiet.
