Top Scottish Islands Hotel Reviews

The Isle of Mull Hotel and Spa

The Isle of Mull Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"The stay at the hotel was very nice, in quiet rooms, decorated in a style out of the 80โ€™s, complete with a rotary dialed phone! The property has views onto the bay directly in front of you, which were lovely, and seating for outside viewing as well. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms were small but adequate. We enjoyed eating breakfast in the restaurant as well. Dinners were also eaten in the restaurant, and the staff members were super sweet, with the exception of the head hostess/waiter who was pretty rude. Whether she didnโ€™t know etiquette or merely had no idea of proper behavior, we were very displeased with her service. And it appeared as if the waiters and waitresses were afraid of her as well. She was very harsh. The food was lovely though and we sloughed off the distraction by her, but it was not appreciated!"
