Very unpleasant experience : we didn't stay there but went for coffee at 11am on a Sunday morning : after going into the main part of the hotel we were directed to the bar and told it was open for coffee, by someone who appeared to be the manager. We were told to go around (outside) and the bar did... more

A beautiful place to arrive on a sunny day and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. Gorgeous room and enormous bathroom. Bliss. Not a Scottish accent to be heard anywhere though - guests or staff - which seemed a shame. The menu was very meaty and so not good value for a veggie. Instead we had dinner in... more

Having stayed (and eaten!) at the Summer Isles Hotel many times in the past, it was with some trepidation that we went back in the new era, since the departure of Mark and Gerry, and Bob and Mary. However, Duncan and Aurelie are a charming couple, the style and excellent hospitality are pretty much unchanged and, crucially, Chris is still... more

After 15 years, we returned to the Summer Isles Hotel for 3-nights. We booked the boat house suite, which is probably the largest and best situated accommodation available with a direct view of the bay and Summer Isles. This is a very large unit with a loft bedroom- accessed by a spiral staircase which could be an issue for some... more

We stayed just one night at the Summer Isles to celebrate our 10th anniversary. The food was tremendous: top drawer ingredients well prepared by a chef who really knows his stuff. This was a truly memorable meal, with friendly service that was both professional and added to the overall experience. Whilst our bedroom could be described as simply furnished, we... more

Having read the previous review I find it hard to believe that I visited the same place. Its worth noting that the previous review is only for the main public bar and not the rest of the hotel, including its michelin starred restaurant. However, I also visited the bar, where I was greeted with a warm welcome, served promptly and... more

The service in this place is a complete disgrace. Smacks of an owner who is content to pay minimum wage to backpacker drifters with no experience who are only looking for some work for a couple of months before moving on. My wife and I arrived to eat at lunch time to be treated to some Faulty Towers style hospitality.... more

I absolutely loved this hotel! The hotel has the most wonderful location, stunning views, and the drive to the hotel is just beautiful. We arrived at lunchtime and decided to head to the bar, where we managed to spend a couple of hours sampling lunch and drink! (well it was an awful day outside!). We checked in and was shown... more

Summer Isles is in a lovely remote location (15 miles along a winding single track road with passing places) and has an excellent restaurant. We weren't keen on the single dining time of 20:00 when there was a mass exodus from the lounge and the bar to the dining room. There was also a set menu with no choice. We... more

What a find!

Spent two wonderful nights at this hotel. We were given one of the cottages with a sea view and what a view.Luckily for us the sun shone for the two days we were there. The room was spotless and just perfect. The meals were served in the main hotel. All the diners met in the comfortable lounge before the meal... more
