Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Fabulous! We had a wonderful warm welcome and were shown to our table .The restaurant is lovely with a great atmosphere. The waiting staff were super attentive and kept our drinks topped up .My husband had the salmon platter to start and I had the vegetable soup. Beautifully presented salmon and soup was divine. Hubby had steak and said it was beautifully cooked and my Fish and chips was so fresh . We ordered a dessert but shouldn’t have as the meal was great portions and very fillingToilets were spotless . A real gem in the highlands and we will definitely be back . Well done to the waiting staff who were amazing x

We booked out the hotel for a few nights for guests for our wedding and we had a great time. Mags was really helpful in the lead up and they had a great variety of rooms with additional space etc to cover everyone’s needs. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the views were gorgeous. All the staff were lovely and friendly. The outside decking area is the perfect place to have a drink and is probably one of my favourite places in the world. Our guests were blown away. Would definitely recommnd!

They do well with what’s available in terms of hotel accommodation etc Room was clean. Bathroom clean however dated and bathroom had a slight musty smell
Staff on arrival were extremely busy so had to wait to check in.
Bar and food staff very good. Food nice. Would go there for food again. Breakfast very tasty.
£4 per portion for chips at the bar/pub tables was expensive though. Not even salted and no sauces provided.
Location stunning.
I left my jacket behind in the room and the staff have posted it to me free of charge. Super helpful.
A good stay overall.

We stayed at the beginning of November, it was quiet because of the restrictions on the first day but we were allowed to take drinks to our room. We hadn't realised but were pleasantly surprised to learn that the hotel were including dinner included in the price for a limited time. We had dinner each night in the cosy bar area, served by the friendly staff, the food was really lovely and good quality. Breakfast was excellent too. Our room looked directly to the loch, we slept with the window open as it was very mild for November. We will be back and we can recommend this hotel for exploring, we caught a ferry from skye to Rassay and finally got to travel on the famous Callums Road which took him 10 years to complete with hand tools. Its been resurfaced a few times, it was still nice to see. The Rassay Distillery was half open and we had a good chinwag with Callum who runs it. He is extremely passionate about it and I reckon it will be really popular and be a huge success. Was hoping to go on another Callum boat trip but it wasn't running this year. We were lucky enough to do a trip a few years ago where the band the ale is dear playing, a bar, whilst being followed by a couple of dolphins.

We had booked to stay here for 2 nights and ended up staying 3. From the moment we stepped in the door we were warmly greeted by Mags who made us feel at home straight away. She took us up to our room, the Carron, and I felt blown away by the gorgeous view over the harbour, the room itself was perfect with a huge comfy bed and lovely ensuite. The food here is amazing too and they had no problem offering vegan options. Breakfast in the mornings was seriously the best I've ever had and kept us going all day! We had kayaks with us and it was fantastic to be able to just cross the street and set off. Plockton itself is such a gorgeous place, and very handy for visiting the Isle of Skye. Honestly our stay here was perfect, would love to return some time

My friend and I stayed in the self catering cottage annexe of the hotel and it was excellent. We ate in the hotel restaurant several times and found it to be great value for amazing food all served up by friendly and efficient staff. They did have some challenging moments when it was at its busiest but took care to ensure all customers were being looked after and apologised for any delays. I have been holidaying in the Plockton Hotel for many years and always found everyone friendly and helpful.

Ultimately our experience at The Plockton was a good one but there are things one should know, not deal breakers, as this is a small town with a stunning harbor and the hotel is a reflection of this. The hotel has a bar and resturant that has excellent food (we ate in every night we were there and everything we had was delicious) . Also, a lovely breakfast is included with the room price. There is Wifi but it is not available in the rooms. It is in the lobby and bar area. There maybe Wifi in harbor view rooms but not throughout the hotel. We had a room in the back of the hotel. It looked nothing like the gallery pictures on the Website It was very clean with the exception of the carpets which need updating. When we arrived, we were a bit disappointed because advertising was inconsistent with what was here. But by the end of our stay, we were glad to be in this lovely quiet Scottish town with a beautiful harbor and a warm atmosphere.

This was the first stop on our UK-based honeymoon and the hotel staff were brilliant. They made sure we had the loch and harbour view room I'd requested at booking, and they even managed to arrange a bottle of prosecco in the room which was a lovely surprise! The beer garden's amazing right across the road from the front door of the hotel and has amazing views across Plockton Harbour. Parking is either right outside the door (if you can get a space), or a very short walk to the free car park at the harbour. The breakfast the next morning was also fantastic, I opted for the kipper and eggs which was a nice change and a good way to start the day.
The only negative I would say is some of the plugs in the room were covered and so we had to struggle to find one just to be able to charge our phones.
This was only a 1 night stay but we'll definitely be coming back next time we visit Plockton!

Went in around 5pm to book a dinner table for later, as we knew they'd be busy. We got one for 8:30 but returned there at 7 to drink in their outside area. When we crossed the road at 8:25 to take our dinner table, we were treated to appalling service. Ignored for half an hour. We finally got a drink and I ordered a rump steak at £18. After 10(!) minutes, I was informed that there was no rump steak, but I could have the ribeye (£25). I expected to be only charged the £18 but no, I was brazenly charged the full £25 without apology. This was after a further 10min gap after ordering dessert, to be told that the specific dessert my partner ordered wasn't available. Oh and the 'rib eye' was more like a minute steak, and the chips looked like leftovers from the chippy across the road, which had just closed.
We were treated like lower class citizens throughout. There were other guests who were served quicker and spoken to more politely. One middle aged waitress took a drinks order from us after having to practically rugby tackle her for attention, then crumpled up the paper menu in her hand as she left the table. We took this as a sign we'd done something wrong. Very rude behavoiur. Never again. The Plockton Inn 200yds along the road is much better.

Tried this place twice for a quiet drink in October. It's certainloy got a great spot on the waterfront but both times we were there the service was abysml. The staff clearly couldn't be bothered, I appreciate these are trying times for the hospitality industry but i've been in plenty restaraunts and hotels and had even better service than usual. This was unaccptable.
15 minutes we had been there and the staff hadn't come near us. We had to ask someone to come over. I enquired as to whether they had an IPA on draught. They did. I asked what it was, 'I dunno' was the answer. No further information was forthcoming, nor an offer to go find out. The lady was surly frankly.
We gave it another go with a view to booking a table for a meal the next day. The service was even worse, a young man, this time. Offered us no assistance at all in moving a table out of the rain so we could sit down, i was wiping the seat dry with one tissue which was clearly not enough, just watched, no offer to get a towel and when he took our order he couldn't have been more curt. After that we decided to eat at the Plockton Inn, which incidentally was great food and great service.
I get the impression the Hotel was trading on it's location but to me that's not enough.
