We slept two nights in the Bosville hotel during our three day tour of the Island. The positive things to say about the place are its location, the wonderfull staff and the fact it has a pub and a restaurant with very good food in its premises. The negative: the room we got (#35) was small, very noisy and the... More

We stayed for 2 nights in the family room. The room was very spacious with 2 sofa beds for the kids with a good size adjoining room with a double bed for the adults, only downside is window is over the back of the hotel. The breakfast was delicious and staff very friendly and helpful. The bar staff were particularly... More

Our room overlooked the harbor and it was a postcard quality view, indeed. The staff was very accommodating and we enjoyed our two night stay. We hired a private tour service on the island, as we were traveling the mainland of Scotland by rail for the most part, so the parking situation did not effect us.

Stayed at this location for two nights recently. Rooms are clean and modern and comfortable. Breakfast was top notch (amazing to be honest). Can't beat the close location to downtown Portree, restaurants and shops all close by. The one issue for us was the lack of parking near the hotel. They have about 6 spaces in front of the hotel...

Hello! I was delighted to read that you enjoyed your stay with us at the Bosville - we do have an excellent location, but pay for that with the lack of space for parking. When the island is full, our spaces can get used up pretty quickly, however there are other parking areas nearby. I do hope you will return... More

Booked online....The location is perfect, friendly staff, common areas interior design nothing fancy. The dining room decors and furnishings needs to be updated.....by a 4 star hotel it is expected some more attention to details. The room was booked as suite but we end up in a cottage apartment....separate from the main hotel facility (just across the road)...the cottage was... More

The Bosville was the second stop on our road trip to the Isle of Skye. We arrived about 6pm after a 200 mile run through Glencoe, Fort William etc and over the Bridge to Skye, followed by a full circuit of the Island.

Skye has many small B& Bs, but if you want the facilities of a full service hotel there are not many and most of those are priced at the top end. The Bosville, while not perfect, goes a long way towards filling the gap. First the good: Good location, Portree is the ideal spot to base oneself for exploring the... More
