St Columba Hotel has a restaurant, bar, a shared lounge and garden in Iona. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The accommodation offers a concierge service and free WiFi throughout the property.

The Hotel is owned and run by people from the Island Community. That's a wonderful thing because it means that the hotel is connected to the place in which it is situated and Iona is a very special place. The Staff are sound, the food was great and the location is wonderful. The three of us travelled by bicycle from Oban. We will be back for sure. Go raibh maith agaibh go léir.

    We enjoyed our amazing time in this lovely and beautiful Iona Pod. Such a wonderful experience with the sea view. We found it very comfortable and everything was set up perfectly and put in the right place. Very cleaned. The location is also great. Not far from the Abbey (10min walk) and the ferry terminal (15-20min walk). We found that the area of these Pods is a very powerful energy spot as it is at the foot of Dun I, Iona’s highest point (333ft). Lovely and friendly staff. We highly recommend Iona Pods.

    It's like glamping, in a really solid tent, but with a bathroom (we were in the ensuite version - highly recommended). Spotlessly clean and with more kit than we imagined. Great if you need a bolt hole in the evenings if you're out walking all day. And the view!! Awesome

    The Pods are a 20 minute walk from the port through the lovely street, past Iona Abbey and in a beautiful location.We were met by Dot who is extremely friendly and helpful. The Pods are great, clean, spacious and fully equipped. The shower and toilet block are superb, spacious and very very clean with separate toilets and showers for men and women. This glamping site is very well thought out and we think glamping is the way forward for travellers - cheaper and much more comfortable than traditional hotel and/or B&B accommodations.
