Anchor Hotel

We had an early ferry to Islay the next morning, and the staff were so thoughtful to prepare our breakfast ahead of time and leave it at the front desk. Great service and nice, comfortable room. The hotel is also very close to the ferry terminal — only about a 10-minute drive, which was very convenient.

Overnight stay whilst using ferry from Kennacraig, check in was smooth, room was small but on the whole very clean. Bathroom towel rail in real need of replacement. Food and service very good and would recommend the restaurant. Would happily stay again.

Breakfast was fab and parking a breeze. Tarbert is a quiet gem.

Lovely stay in this charming town. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was delicious.

Free on street parking just opposite. Hotel just needs some work - large stains on our bedroom carpet, ceiling tiles missing/damp stains in hallway. Breakfast was nice.

Great hotel. Super location, right overlooking the harbour. Lovely clean room. Helpful staff. Fabulous breakfast

Nothing relavant

Too small. Since it was for one night, it was okay. The Harbour was beautiful. Town very small and we were unable to find anyone that could accommodate us for dinner.

Very tired, needs a full refit.

Situated right in the middle of Tarbert so easy access to the town except it’s not a big town.

Due to an unseasonable storm we were stuck in an adjacent island and unable to reach the hotel as there were no ferries off the island. In spite of that they were unwilling to apply some common sense and cancel the booking.

The hotel is a bit tired and needing a refurb, but the staff are lovely, and the breakfast was great

Great views of the harbour from room 1. The room was small but adequate. The whole hotel is tired. Black mould around the shower base and tiles. Appeared to offer a good selection of gluten free for my wife, but after I ordered the scallops my wife's linguine pasta came with gluten, staff realised before she ate it. So they offered to go to the Co-op and get some, meanwhile my scallops were dry and they should have taken both dishes away and remade them. She opted for scallops with no black pudding. So did manage to eat at the same time. They did not charge for her scallops, disappointing nonetheless.

Well worth a visit. Staff very friendly and helpful. Food was very good and reasonable prices Would recommend.

Great location Friendly staff Great meal

I mistakenly booked this hotel instead of Tarbert on Harris. I called to inform the hotel on the arrival date, and they refused to refund either of the two nighrs I'd paid for.

Room was ok. Could do with a bit of a touch up. But the view was really good and the bed extremely comfortable. Shower good, cubicle on the smaller size. Food was excellent. Free parking outside and just across from the hotel.

Tarbert is such a sweet little town. The castle ruins were magical. The hotel itself - very convenient, easy parking, incredibly nice and very hardworking staff. The meals were SUPERB! The room was in good condition. The bed was a bit on the soft and saggy side. Great view though over the water. Hallways are clearly under ongoing repairs. The dinner dining area is quite nice. Breakfast area could use a refresh (especially that first booth seat). Overall, the Anchor Hotel was a great 2 night stop off for us. Thus has been a magical trip overall and the Anchor Hotel was a delightful find along the way!

Pleasant three star hotel in the middle of the village and with good views over the harbour.

Lack of lift was the main issue for me especially when I was in almost the further most room away with 4 flight of stairs. Afew things didnt function properly like sink stopper trickle of tap water and veey long reach for bedside lamp switch. The was on thich the TV is hung needs repainting . The food was very good.
