Gorgeous location. Cabins were cosy and comfy.

5.0 / 10.0

Great location and Pods were very good, only issue was the staff member that was on when we checked in did not know how the EV chargers worked and could not find the fob. This meant we were unable to charge our vehicle overnight. More training need for the team.

Friendly staff, excellent service. Food was delicious. Robust breakfast menu and exactly what was need before a morning hike. Very close to all main points of interest on Skyr. Hope to be back some day.

3.0 / 10.0

The breakfast was great and the rooms besides small they were good but overall it was WAAAAY TOO EXPENSIVE for what is offered. Our little room was facing a construction side which totally broke the whole “exclusive and relaxing vibe”. It was actually very disappointing. Just because for almost $1000 for two nights i was expecting way more. Maybe I should have done more research about it.

We were so very happy with our stay… from the cozy comfortable and roomy pods to the restaurant, bar, friendly staff, simply everything was just fantastic. We would definitely come back again and recommend to friends and family!!

4.0 / 10.0

The Bracken Hide hotel is one of the most unique hotels we have stayed at. The location was walking distance to Portree. The restaurant and bar had great views and staff very friendly and helpful. An area to improve is communication from the pods to the reception. After cleaning our room they did not leave us towels. We tried to contact the front desk by calling with iur cell phone around 9:00pm and no one answered. We had ti use the bath robe in our room to dry off after showering. The best part of the hotel is the privacy, but if it is raining it can be very challenging getting to and from the lobby and restaurant. The morning of check-out was a little challenging for us with rain. But we knew that going in.

2.0 / 10.0

although the view from the hotel was amazing, I found the staff to be gruff and generally unhelpful which is the reason for my poor review. The staff appeared significantly more concerned with their own schedules and comfort versus assisting the guests.

4.0 / 10.0

Nice place to stay, but far too expensive!!! Breakfast (included) was good, but very limited choices.

5.0 / 10.0

Cute little cottage overlooking the town of Portree. Breakfast was amazing!! Definitely ask for assistance getting luggage to your cottage, they have golf carts to transport luggage, as the cottages are spread out over the hillside. We would definitely stay again!

5.0 / 10.0

This was a wonderful home base to explore the Isle of Skye. Food was delicious, and the cocktail bar was a nice place to end at night. Our bartender gave the best recommendations for sights to see. She was amazing!

5.0 / 10.0

A Unique and Fun Experience! This was such a fun adventure! The pods are super cute, cozy, and comfortable. We also tried the sauna and cold plunge — such a great experience. The staff were absolutely incredible, especially Zara, who went above and beyond to make our stay special.

3.0 / 10.0

Beautiful resort and room with great service however we had a very long walk (1/4 mile) to our hide up the hill and long walk back to our car every time we wanted to come and go. We are fit people who came to see Skye and hike. We weren’t thrilled to hike to our room after a long day of hiking. There was a golf cart that the staff would take you up if needed but we couldn’t and didn’t want to ask for every trip. The bed was extremely lumpy with springs poking us in the back- so much we actually rotated the mattress to try to make it better. There were no washcloths and the bed side lights would not turn off all the way. We couldn’t turn off the heater in the bathroom so had to turn on the ac to com at the heat. We had no internet in our room so could not work when we needed to. The Bracken itself was beautiful and the restaurant was very good and the service fantastic. We expected more from a 4 star hotel and would have liked to have known that we would be no where near our vehicle and that we were expected to trek up the hill to our room- the trade off I guess is that we had a pretty good view. Mixed review from us for sure! We loved parts and hated parts. Would we stay again? Not sure

5.0 / 10.0

Staying here was a wonderful experience, from the service to the ambiance. It's close to town but peacefully removed from it as well. We loved staying in the cabins and wish we could have stayed longer. The breakfast was also delicious!

6.0 / 10.0

The little cabins were cute, but incredibly stuffy and with lots of midges flying around (so we were unable to use the patio or open a door. It would’ve been great to have a small window to get air moving. Also, the large window/door looked out onto the main path, so we had very little privacy. The sauna/pool and restaurant were also closed so

8.0 / 10.0

We stayed in one of the pods high up on the hill at Bracken Hide Hotel. The view out over Portree and the harbour was fantastic. We were glad that the pod was air conditioned as the weather was quite hot. The pods are very new and modern. The walk up to the pod on a gravel path was fairly strenuous but you can get a ride in a golf buggy which is essential with luggage. But be warned the buggy doesn’t seem to be available all the time. Also it would great if the dining room where we had our breakfast was air conditioned as it was very hot in the mornings. We really enjoyed our stay and had a great time.

A very special and unique place! Staff were incredibly helpful and attentive. Lots of fun riding up to the cabin on a golf cart. Very nice restaurant for breakfast and we had a wonderful dinner there the first night. Cabins are very thoughtfully designed and beautiful. Excellent shower and comfortable bed. Easy to walk into town (although we had trouble finding a place to have dinner without reservations!) Nice bookstore in town also. Would love to stay again, highly recommended!

The staff were so friendly and helpful!! Other reviews have complained about the walk to the rooms, but rides are available via golf cart. Zara made the best drinks in the bar!

Room was not clean. Room was not made up after first night. Shower drain was clogged and it was not repaired even after reporting it after the first night.

4.0 / 10.0

They are very quaint and rustic pods. I knew they were small but would have liked somewhere to put toiletries in the bathroom. Oddly, there wasn’t any facial tissues. But, beautiful, relaxing view of the bay. Great food and service at the restaurant. I would recommend this hotel.

We loved the Isle of Skye and the Bracken Hide was wonderful. We were greeted by staff that brought our bags to our pod. The pod was so cute and cozy and very clean. We enjoyed spending some time in the lounge and the breakfast was delicious!

I wasn't sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. The little units were well equipped with a bed and bathroom, air conditioning, TV etc. The units are small but it was such an interesting experience so would highly recommend. The restaurant was excellent. Breakfast was well done and dinners were top notch. My only complaint was the main hall was warm but other than that it was well done.

This was one of the most beautiful hotels and the staff were amazing. Highly recommend doing the breakfast as it was fantastic and perfect before we set off to explore Isle of Skye for the day. I cannot recommend this place enough. Every staff member was amazing and so friendly!

Staff and service were great. Bungalow was perfect. Would be a little out of the way if you’re walking but not undo able.

The cosy cabin was clean and quiet located on hill. The main lodge was modern and comfortable. It was about a mile from the small town of Portree. While I did enjoy my stay, I felt it was very overpriced.

8.0 / 10.0

Clean, quiet, great breakfast. Our pod was very distant from main building. Walking in the rain back and forth was a little inconvenient. Overall, great stay.

8.0 / 10.0

Overall the cabin is very nice with great views. The food is amazing. There are a few little things that were missed, that would've made the place exquisite. After check-in, we found an empty bottle of body wash and almost empty shampoo bottle. We got a half-empty bottle from the front desk that was never replaced during the 3 nights stay. The walk to the top cabin was long and steep. There are not enough instructions in the room or available at the desk for opertaing the heat/AC and the in-room safe.

2.0 / 10.0

Our room, cabin, was all the way on top of hill and we had to walk up a gravel road to get there. We were not aware of that, I had knee problem and could not walk up. They gave us instead the smallest cabin with no space to move or store anything and the install shower would not drain.
