We LOVED this property and would definitely stay again if we were in the area. The room was very clean, spacious and nicely decorated. It was a great location to walk to restaurants, bars, coffee shops and even the water. We had no issues parking and the staff were very friendly as well. It was a quiet place and we really enjoyed our stay. Definitely recommend!

The rooms itself were great with spacious bathrooms. The staff was uber friendly and knew us / which room we were staying throughout the hotel. The restaurant there is fabulous, we ate both dinner and breakfast and immensely enjoyed both. Would NOT hesitate to stay here again! Such a pleasure in Portree!

Our stay was ok but no better than that. Hotel is grossly overpriced for the facilities it has. Staff were nice and location is good. Restaurant menu is quite limited. Room was okay but you expect better at this price

This property is grossly overpriced. It is no more than an motel but we pay 7 star hotel prices.
Not worth the costs and poor value

The customer service was great. Easy check-in and easy check-out. Very communicative. They made sure that we had reservations for breakfast and if we needed, they can pack us a breakfast to-go, amazing. There are no other amenities, and no elevator, but it is only two floors. The rooms are modern and very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone that is staying in Portree. Apparently, it has a reputation for being one of the best in town. It is also only an easy 6 min walk from the town center.

Overall, very good, but...
Overall very good but... The breakfast was amazingly good but we ate elsewhere in the evening because the evening menu was very poor for vegetarians. Also, the window in our room did not shut fully which made it a bit noisy as we were above the kitchen extractors. The staff were attentive so have probably fixed it now.

Room was okay, clean, and with all comfort ( nespresso machine!).
Breakfast was very well presented and varied.
Nice drink list.
Unfortunately, we couldn't have dinner for two consecutive days because the hotel doesn't reserve tables for its guests.
No one helped us with our luggage: two floors of stairs!
The check-in was chaotic and poorly managed: despite having paid everything in advance, without any preliminary check, the clerk handed us the card reader to pay again!
Even just asking or verifying first would have been a courteous gesture.

We were so excited to stay at The Marmalade Hotel. However, this hotel misses the mark in a few categories:
We were left to carry our luggage up the stairs (no elevator).
The staff sort of half-heartedly answers questions about area restaurants/sights.
Our room's thermostat was not working properly and we roasted on the first night. We tried getting help, but the night shift woman didn't know how the control worked. The next day we found out that the receptionist needed to turn our HVAC system on with a switch behind the front desk! There was not an apology for our hot, sleepless night. An apology would've gone a long way.

This property did not allow us to be seated with our friends for breakfast saying we didn't reserve a time. When we said we had to leave because we were not feeling great, because we booked on Expedia (will never do that again) we were going to be charged the second night anyway. Then they proceeded to kick our 83 year old friend out of her room at 11 when she was waiting for us to return. We were going to be charged anyway so the room was technically ours...how incredibly cruel and senseless. She had to wait elsewhere, not feeling well. It may be a pretty location, but the staff and policies make it a 2 star hotel.

Nice hotel with easy access to the town centre. Friendly staff. Pull out sofa wasn't terribly high quality and expected a better mattress for the money spent. Nice appointments throughout and breakfast was good.
