Holiday stay
Nicely done rooms in the distillery. Room was comfortable and had amazing view. Price was a bit high for the level offered and it was disappointing that the restaurant is closed mid week as the dining experience next door is not to be recommended.

Phenomenal place to stay. Isle of Raasay Distillery is a really neat community project and it has community themes included in all the designs of the building, bottles, etc. Everyone is very friendly, the food is amazing, and the rooms are comfortable. This place is still young so I'm excited to see how it's doing in the next 5-10 years!

Luxury stay on a paradise island
The views from the distillery over to Skye are incredible. The bedroom was spacious, comfortable, clean and luxurious. Breakfasts were delicious, and the option of a packed lunch and a private chef on Sundays when everything else on the island is closed, is a masterstroke, and amazing value. We loved this place, and our nights on Raasay were a wonderful change of pace from how busy Skye was - we would recommend the distillery to anyone looking for a luxury break on a beautiful island, and we will endeavour to come bacm at some stage.

Unusual accommofstion and a memorable stay
This is a really amazing place to stay . We had an accessible room on the ground floor . The distillery /hotel is an old building which has been completely refurbished using attractive light wood . The view of the sea and Skye from the Gathering Room is amazing . It's well worth doing a distillery tour during your stay too . Very good buffet breakfast . Highly recommended .

The original room we were given was very hot. Luckily there was a no show and the staff gave us their room. The staff was excellent, helping with our luggage. It seems that when we book via Expedia, we are given the least desirable room. Also when rooms say they have A/C, they often do not. My wife has MS and it is medically necessary for her to have A/C. It puts her at risk when we book a room that does not have an accurate description.

Beautiful view. Would be helpful if the hotel emailed ahead saying if you want to eat on the Isle of Raasay, then you must make reservations at the Raasay House for dinner at least one day in advance. We ended up eating at a bar before boarding ferry because there was no space at the restaurant.

It would have been nice to have had a tour around the distillery included for guests rather than having to pay extra to go around, but apart from that this hotel is fabulous! Amazing scenery from the public areas. Staff all very nice and helpful. Would definitely visit again
