Very friendly service, very clean, neat, small rooms with a lot of character. One of our party has limited mobility and unfortunately we were on the top floor, but we were able to manage with a little bit of planning. Food at the restaurant was excellent. This quaint Town may be one of the most beautiful places we've ever been anywhere in the world, and between my wife and I, we have been many places...

Beautiful town to stop and relax. The Inn has charm. The restaurant had good food, a bit overpriced. We stayed there and didn’t have reservations so we didn’t get a seat in the main bar area. If you are staying there and you want to eat in the bar make reservations. The breakfast was served in the inn next door - the haven inn and was ok. Rooms were clean. Bed was comfortable. Our room was #1 and at 9 pm we could hear the loud kitchen and restaurant in our room. That part was not our favorite. If you like quiet maybe ask for a room away from the restaurant/bar.

I had the pleasure of staying here on a pit stop for a solo road trip. The staff was friendly and helpful, even when I had the weird request of needing an eraser. The room was comfortable and clean. The photo does not give the view from the room justice. The drive to Plockton was beautiful. I hope that next time I visit I am able to experience more of the town. I was only there for a short, overnight visit.

A lovely hotel in a gorgeous location. I wish we had been able to stay longer. The breakfast was fantastic and dinner was great. All the staff were helpful and friendly.

This charming little inn takes up 3 separate small buildings in the beautiful village of Plockton 5 miles from the bridge to the Isle of Skye. The staff is warm and welcoming and the rooms are well appointed and equipped, and rather chic in their own original way. Dinner was terrific with local music in their bar last night. Breakfast buffet was perfect. Be sure to try the vegetarian haggis, it is quite good too!

We stayed at the Plockton Inn for a one night stop over. All of the staff were extremely gracious and kind and they were the joy of our stay. The restaurant was worth booking if you stay. We had a minor problem with the quality of our room due to it being unfortunately one of the rooms that still is awaiting renovation and customers potentially booking this property should ensure to book the newly renovated rooms and avoid any of “The Haven” options. How an establishments handles challenges is such a telling component of hospitality and when our concerns were addressed with Paul, the general manager, he was so proactive and sought us out the next morning. He was receptive and promptly addressed the minor concerns with the room that were raised. The establishment obviously is concerned and dedicated to their guest experience and that makes all the difference. I would book again. Thank you for the stay!

Had a beautiful family dinner here - the kids menu was all nice fresh cooked food as well. We had crab salad, mussels and croquettas - all delicious. I went in the next night for a few pints at the bar and it was as friendly as my own local as well. Thank you
