Views from the bedroom lovely with the sun setting over the Isles made for a memorable experience. Also great to enjoy a drink out in the sunshine with the views across the ocean to the Isles.

Central location, flexibility of owner. On flexibility, I need to explain the 11/5 review about spare keys. I was returning to stay a few nights after an initial stay, late at night off the ferry, and thought the owner said I should just keep hold of the key so as not to disturb anyone. My misunderstanding and that's why she was short of a key - sorry!
Situated in Ardvasar, 36 km from Kyle of Lochalsh, The Inn @ Aird a' Bhasair features accommodation with a restaurant, free private parking and a bar.

The view from the restaurant and front of the house. The staff. They let us get the room a bit earlier, and for that, we were very grateful.
The breakfast was lovely.
Spacy rooms.
Established in 1902 The Morar Hotel is a family run hotel in the highlands in North West Scotland, 3 miles from Mallaig, the Southern gateway to the Isle of Skye.
In a picturesque bay in the south of Skye, this hotel has beautiful views over the Sound of Sleat and the distant hills of Knoydart.

The staff were very pleasant.The dear lady who checked us in(unfortunately forgot her name) was so pleasant.The place had no mobile network and that feeling of being cut off was great especially coming from a busy and bustling city like London.
Everyone at the hotel were informal and the people around seemed warm and felt like a big family.
I highly recommend to stay here for a day or two when on a trip to the Isle of Skye.
Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links !
Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links ! Ferries and Trains ! The train journey is spectacular and worth every Penny and minute of the 5 hours from Glasgow or 2 hours plus from Fort William … I’m not a train spotter by any means or a Harry Potter fan but this journey as always been on my travel bucket list and did not disappoint!
Good bar / restaurant … great value great food at the top of the hill and friendly locals !! Be aware as you’d expect not a lot open in the depths of winter!! But enough and how I personally like it !!

Mallaig is at its heart an old fishing town which has seen that part of its self-image eroded by the economics of fisheries across the land. Meanwhile it has become popular because of the steam railway and Harry Potter. Though this has improved the economy it feels like the place begrudges this new found dimension and would prefer to revert to its quieter fish-focussed past. Some of the restaurants feel like they are profiteering - £11 for 4 tiny pieces of salt and pepper squid slapped on the table is indicative. Overpriced dishes and underwhelming service. Is it me or do the staff in the hostelries and shops project an air that says they've had enough and want to scuttle off for their own vacation? They need to decide to up their game or move over for someone with more stamina, energy and understanding of customer service. Not somewhere for which I will hold fond memories. The exception to all this is the host of the pod who was bright and cheerful and could not be more helpful.

Plenty of places to eat.
Plenty of places to eat. Mallaig gets busy when the steam train(think Harry Potter) from Fort William arrives.
Surprisingly, many shops were closed on Saturday morning.
Great smoked fish and shellfish from Andy Race fish merchant, but shop not open on Saturday.
Ferry trips to Eigg, Rum, Skye and Knoydart(loch Nevis)

It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port.
It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port. It has a huge number of cafes, restaurants and tourist facilities. Great rail and road communications. Lovely circular walk above the town - great views.
The location of The Steam Inn is great, right in the heart of Mallaig and only 100m from the very picturesque harbour. The staff are warm and friendly and work hard to please their guests. The seafood on the menu is FANTASTIC. Staying for 6 nights we did not make it fully through the menu. Every dish was prepared and presented to our delight. We cannot complement The Steam Inn enough. We will certainly be back.
Sharon was a pleasure, a great host that couldn't do enough for us. If you're sailing to or from Mallaig you couldn't be any closer to the ferry. Lovely ice cream in the shop below the accommodation and a lovely bakery over the road. The accommodation even has a little kitchen with a cooker and fridge etc that you are welcome to use should you wish to.
Great location in Mallaig. Rooms were clean and attractively presented with en suite shower and toilet. It was an old hotel so had no lift, but the stairs were manageable. Dinner in the bar was very pleasant and the staff went out of their way to provide a hot breakfast at 8 am so that we could catch the ferry to Skye.
We loved how comfortable and cosy the glamping pod was - we came to Mallaig for hiking and running, etc., so it was great to come back to a quiet, beautiful and warm pod (with a stunning view!) in the evenings, to rest up for the rest of the trip.
The hotel has a lot of character and is quite large in size. It is located in a convenient location - close to stores, restaurants, the ferry and the train. The staff at the check-in desk were very nice. Parking facilities were great!
Cheap and cheerful and comfortable, good facilities and a warm welcome, I didn't have any problems with noise when I stayed but it must depend who else is staying at the time, would stay again next time I'm in Mallaig
The location in "downtown" Mallaig was perfect. Everything was very walkable. The pod itself was super cosy and very clean. Small bathroom, obviously, but hot water and well appointed. I loved the heated floors.
Locaed in the centre of Mallaig, close to shops, pubs and restaurants, also train station and ferry terminal.
Room was basic, with clean bedding and heating that works very well.
Would stay again!
This hotel is superb. We had a lovely, comfortable room with a sea view. The breakfast was great with a variety of options. This was the perfect base for exploring Mallaig and the surrounding area.
Quaint stay in Mallaig since we wanted to catch the early morning ferry. The rooms are small but clean, with all necessities available! Pub food was decent, with really good desserts :)
The proximity of the lovely, quiet, beaches was wonderful. Fantastic for a beach based holiday and very close to Mallaig, which has a good few things to offer for a peaceful holiday.
Staff went above and beyond. Hotel was clean, comfortable, and the location was phenomenal. They even offered ear plugs for when the seagulls got too loud.
