The Airds is one of the loveliest small luxury hotels in Scotland. Located on the west coast right in the Scottish Highlands. This romantic boutique hotel, a converted ferry inn, is set in one of the most stunning locations in the UK and is one of the AA's Red Star award winning luxury romantic hotels in Scotland. It is where personal service, luxury and a gourmet dining experience in the 3 Rosette restaurant (Michelin recommended) are the very essence of all that is great about a visit to this exclusive retreat.

We were sadly disappointed in this hotel. Firstly, although on their advice I had changed our room to a superior in order to have a walk in shower we were still given a room with a bath and shower over. Attitude of management - nothing we can do. (My husband and I are in our eighties with limited mobility ) Then they offered us a room with a shower after two nights which we took. The shower was very very small and with lots of black mould. The hotel wasn’t just tired- it was exhausted and the food??? It was truly awful. We spoke to five other sets of guests who all said the same. Scotland was beautiful. If only the hotel lived up to it!

Very tired hotel! General feeling of age and staleness. Some windows, doors and lights in the bedroom didn’t work. Seen better days sometime ago-would not recommend it!

The room was very nice, the rest horrible. Nothing left of the luxury hotel we have known and loved, food and service hideous. The dining room - once cosy and fine , has recently gotten new tables and chairs - ghastly ! All in one a terrible disappointment !

Just back from a two night stay at Airds Hotel for a family wedding at nearby Glencoe Lochan. Check in was fast and staff very welcoming. Rooms were spacious and spotless. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice. Staff set up the dining room beautifully for wedding meal and management provided very good service throughout our stay.Nothing was a bother to them. We enjoyed family evenings in the cosy lounges. Port Appin is a lovely spot and Airds Hotel is definitely well worth a visit.

Lovely boutique hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was great - they were very accommodating about our dietary requirements. Comfortable, well appointed rooms. Great place for day trips to beautiful Lismore.
