The Hotel was very easy to reach from the ferry port at Brodick. On arrival, I was checked in by a friendly member of their team and shown up to my room - a single room on this occasion. The room was very clean and warm (it was November!). It had a TV, phone, hairdryer, tea and coffee making facilities and a bathroom provided with towels and toiletries. Everything worked. The view from the window was out towards Lamlash Church and the bay. I'd booked a meal for the evening - the food was really good, both in the evening and for breakfast (I had the Full Scottish). There was also a bar with a small choice of beers on draught. Once again, the staff in the restaurant were very friendly and the food arrived quickly. I was also pleasantly surprised that on the Saturday night that there was also some live music (a guitarist). The view at the front of the hotel was stunning and directly overlooks Holy Island. The only minor issue I had was that the EV charge-point at the rear of the hotel refused to work for me, although that was probably an issue for Chargeplace Scotland rather than the Hotel - there were other charge-points very close by, all reasonably priced. A good stay and a hotel I would gladly return to.

Fantastic hotel to be recommended
It was our first trip ever with a newborn baby and everything at Glenisle Hotel was fantastic. The staff was just amazing, super helpful and accommodating for our baby needs. The room was impeccably clean and the restaurant so good that we decided to eat there not only for breakfasts but dinners as well.

It said it was refurbished but a lot of chipped paintwork in our bedroom and the bathroom tap made a terrible noise when we turned it on. We had paid £200 per night for this room. The seating in the restaurant was stained also We arrived back at 1040pm on our first night and the bar was closed although the barmaid was sitting there she refused to serve us. The girl who served at breakfast was really helpful. Very disappointed as we had stayed there a few years ago and had a lovely time The photographs on the website showed a comfortable library with an open fire which did not exist

Absolutely stunning view from our room. Bed super comfortable. No wifi in the room only in public areas (did say this on booking when I checked but just in case you don’t check) We were in room 8. Big room but no decor whatsoever. Curtain for a toilet door. Toilet seat not secure. Dangerous shower going scalding hot then freezing cold every few seconds. Did tell the reception staff. I couldn’t have a body shower due to this. Had to keep dipping my head in and out the shower every few seconds to get the soap off. My husband is a plumber and became aware of what was happening quickly whereas there could be someone in the shower who would get badly burnt unexpectedly. Staff did say they would get this rectified. Staff friendly. Breakfast average.
