Ok for the night!

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.

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.

Good views but shabby.

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.
HG Mould remover would fix this easily

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!
