Lovely stay and the most welcoming and helpful staff - thank you!

The hotel is well situated and near everything. The HS cafe was available even on Sunday. People were kind and the room was clean and quiet.

Quality of food

A great location in central Stornoway right opposite the Harbour with lovely views of the castle. The downstairs area is bright and modern with a lovely atmosphere but unfortunately this isnt the case in the bedrooms which are dated, small and tired. The bed was very comfy though. We had a few issues with dining in that the first day I waited 90mins for my food order, only to be told the kitchen had closed. The next day, very little was available on the menu so we left to eat elsewhere. Breakfast was fine and fresh. Wouldn't stay here again.

Hotel was cute and in a great location. Our only negative was that although our bed was large it was uncomfortable and could use an updating. Staff were very friendly!

Clean, comfortable room with ample hanging and shelf space. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Ate in the restaurant where the food, service, and atmosphere were excellent. I'll definitely aim to stay here again.

our hotel room was in need of care taking - wallpaper peeling at its corners, paint scuffed off on a radiator, windows weather-worn and discolored.

Fair price for accommodation but menu was pricey and could do with a coup of traditional meals apart from that really enjoyed my time in Stornaway

good location

The Royal is a very nice hotel. The only negative it is located on a busy highway. The road noise can be a problem to light sleepers. Great location for ferry users.

The best accommodation in Stornoway.

Stayed in a beautiful harbour view room , comfortable bed with lovely extra touches , such as tea treats and biscuits , staff are the most friendly and always on hand if needed highly recommend this hotel

I loved the Royal Hotel. Everyone that works there was friendly and helpful. The room was very cozy and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner was delicious. I enjoyed the location. It was easy to set off on day trips to see the sights on the island and come back for a great night’s sleep. My favorite thing were the stone circles, which were not far from Stornoway. It was perfect for me.

Lovely property, conveniently located at the lovely harbour. Gorgeous views and wonderful staff. Many dining options around, but the restaurant in the hotel is fantastic! They even had vegan sticky toffee pudding for my travel partner!

Clean, comfortable and conveniently located for early morning ferry. Enjoyed a wonderful dinner at the Boatshed restaurant, which is connected to the hotel.

The staff was great, and location in central Stornoway. Beds comfortable, not the hard mattresses so common. Two improvements: more plugs for recharging (including USB) and better water pressure for the shower.

Very comfortable hotel with lovely location and good food and service

Food was delicious, the staff were very friendly. The decor was nice, great location would recommend this to all. Would come back.

Great location with a good view of the castle. Top notch restaurant meal with helpful staff.
