My husband was born and grew up in Rothesay but, having left the island over 30 years ago, this was a trip down memory lane for him. We received a warm welcome from Irene and our spacious room, with comfortable 4-poster bed, had a stunning view of Rothesay Bay. The full cooked Scottish breakfast was delicious. My hubby's father used... More

We visited Bute to meet friends and enjoy what the island had to offer. The Bayview was recommended by our friend who holidays regularly in Rothesay and what the accommodation offered matched her recommendation. A beautiful location on Rothesay Bay and for us, Room 12 was a gem. As well as an uninterrupted view of the river in all its... More

Warmly welcomed by Irene who changed our room from a garden view to a sea view. We were not disappointed with this. What an amazing view of Rothesay Bay. The sun sets were awesome to watch. Very comfortable room. Bed felt new and very comfortable with what seemed like new cotton bed linen. Room and en suite facilities were spotless.... More

Recently we had a 2 night stay in The Bayview as my husband had work to do in Rothesay. Our room was wonderful, with a 'view to live for'; the welcome and breakfasts were great; and Bute has amazing scenery, walks and treasures to visit.

A very clean and comfortable room with a gorgeous view. The house is lovely with a comfortable lounge to sit in. The breakfast was very nice and plentiful. The owners were very helpful and pleasant. It was the perfect base for our 4 night break on a beautiful island.

We stayed in the Bayview Hotel for 2 nights with our daughter and husband. We were greeted on arrival by Irene ,who together with her husband own the hotel. Our room was on the top floor which was really not suitable for anyone with a mobility problem as there is no lift. We had a garden view room which was... More

A really excellent hotel a short walk away from the Ferry Terminal in Rothesay. It was perfect for getting into Rothesay and accessing the rest of Bute. The room was perfect - very well appointed, clean and welcoming (as was the Hotel itself). The view across the Bay was perfect and the breakfast was excellent. Unfortunately, no evening meals were...

My welcome was lovely. My room was an original Victorian size including it's plaster work on the ceiling. It was furnished to a high standard. On cooler days cosy warm with the central heating on.The walls were thick so I was undisturbed apart from the view. The view did disturb me!!! As a keen photographer I couldn't keep my eyes... More

I have stayed at the Bayview Hotel with Andrew and Irene for three successive years and their advert of "Come as a stranger, leave as a friend" has truly come to pass. My room has always been clean amd comfortable - redecorated this year plus new beds.Last year, I broke my arm badly and had to stay an extra week.... More
