Castlebay Hotel

Stayed the one night as I arrived on the flight from Glasgow that lands on the beach and returned the next day. You can also arrive by ferry which docks 5 minutes from the hotel. It is a passenger and car ferry from Oban.Nice room with a view out over the harbour and bay. Food and atmosphere good. The bar next door is where the locals meet and it also has live music on certain days.

This is one of the best hotel ever lodge, from the environment down to the building, it services, automated doors, friendly and professional staff, the neatness of the room, let talk about the delicacy , honestly you wouldn't want to miss it for anything, Good management and support staff.

The bed is so soft and big so comfortable and homely I will like to go there again any time I visit that state again.They are very caring and neat there ,so comfortable and beautiful in short it is very accommodating and nice I think that's where I will be lodging now

A very good hotel near the port. A very warm welcome on arrival. The room was large with a comfortable double bed and a single if needed. There was plenty of storage. The room had tv , wifi and tea and coffee making facilities. It had a large bathroom, modern and clean, with a bath and shower. My one negative comment would be that the bath was very deep and had no hand rail therefore making it a little difficult to use ,if you have any mobility problems. We ate in the restaurant which was a very pleasant. The food was home cooked and excellent. We were served by two young, friendly and attentive young people. They were a credit to the hotel.

We went to the Castlebay Hotel for lunch. We had cream of mushroom soup and carrot and coriander soup. We had cheese and ham toasties with chips. The bread was absolutely amazing. We had the most sumptuous of desserts the Hebridean Toffee Sundae. OMG it was amazing. We had a spectacular view of Castlebay and Vatersay. Allison looked after us superbly. Many thanks for an unbelievable treat at lunch time.

Lovely hotel. Great views. Comfortable beds which is extremely important. Cosy lounge and sun room. The staff were very helpful. Loved that the local teenagers were working and doing a superb job. Very comfortable beds and great food. The only hotel in Barra doing lunch. So healthy and great to have that option as I could only find cakes to eat everywhere else. The young proprietor is highly talented. Your food will be served on pottery she has made herself. Her art adorns the walls as does her sisters. Now if you are just wanting a Guiness and pie go no further than next door and enjoy these looking out on the bay. Talking about food the dinner menu offers wonderful seafood that is cooked to perfection. Try the langoustine ravioli. You won't be disappointed. Thoroughly recommend this tasteful hotel and it's lovely staff
