The staff was friendly, which is really an exception in Scotland :) and we felt like home here.
Set in a converted cluster of fisherman’s houses along Portree Harbour the hotel offers plenty of character and quirks. There are 17 en-suite bedrooms with all expected facilities.
In 15 acres of private grounds, this hotel boasts spectacular views over Portree Bay to the Cuillin Mountain range. It has an award-winning restaurant and a range of whiskies on offer.

The Distillery is a great option to stay while visiting the Highlands and going up north. It's a top choice to feel and breathe the nature while enjoying a very comfortable evening. It is a good idea to bring the car into the island if you can spare the time to tour around - just beware that you have to fit your schedule to the ferry timetables and it can be tricky on Sundays. Regarding meal options, also note that there could be no other options apart from the hotel ( we were here mid-May).

The location, walking, scenery is fantastic, distillery tour is interesting and whisky tasting is informative. Staff are friendly and informative.
The downstairs room (6) requires work, has no openable windows, no AC and has forced air ventilation which is noisy and can’t be switched off. Basin is set far too low for use and there is no hot water in the basin. No place to unpack clothes so if staying longer than one night, have to live out of your suitcase

Fab location, accommodation.
Fab location, accommodation. You need to make sure to plan your trip around the ferry times or you will not make it to the island. Great for all sorts of activities on the water and on the land. We biked it and although it was taxing (ver hilly) the views and wildlife spotting make it so worthwhile. We saw two golden eagles for example. 👍

We only stayed 1 night. We have arrived with the last ferry. After checking in, we had a drive on the island end-to-end. Spectacular and very beautiful (wild).
We didn't had dinner or breakfast (we left with the first ferry), so I can't speak for the food.

Raasay is like a rougher round the edges version of Skye.
Raasay is like a rougher round the edges version of Skye. Definitely more to explore than just the distillery. Some beautiful, but pretty hard going, walks / hikes with amazing views and hidden gems...like the tiny cave on the walk to Fladday. Get a good map and strong boots and enjoy.

Intended as a stop over before our ferry from Uig to Lochmaddy the following day, our short visit to Raasay House got our holiday off to a great start.
The friendly staff were very accommodating of a family travelling with a large dog! Everything about Raasay House had us wishing we had booked to stay for longer.
The 20 minute ferry crossing from Skye is well worth the spectacular views of the Cuillins of Skye from the lawn in front of the hotel and from the bar where we ate in the evening and the brasserie where we were served a delicious breakfast.
We LOVED it here! Such a gem! Fantastic facilities and rooms with great amenities. It’s a super special hotel as you’re not only staying at the distillery but there are only six rooms (currently). So it’s a wonderfully quiet/restful stay on a peaceful island…with whiskey! Also, pretty sure the chef is secretly Master Michelin chef. As most people leave the island on the last ferry, there was only us, the locals, and the Raasay crew at the bar-and talking to the people who stayed was a special memory for us. We’ll be back.
A last minute decision when accommodations on Skye were unavailable. Great decision! The stay included a free tour of the distillery. We also booked dinner on site and it was delicious. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. Lovely pastoral setting and water views. Our room looked newly decorated, clean and fresh, very comfortable. Breakfast was also quite tasty — cooked to order. Not suitable for guests with mobility issues.
We loved everything about Raasay House Hotel, the location is ridiculously beautiful, the bedroom was very comfortable, the staff were very friendly, the food tasty, the bar well stocked. The location is phenomenal, glorious views, great walks & rib trips to give you a different perspective of the island. Thank you to David & Freya & their team fit making it such a perfect wee break.
Amazing place! The location/setting is exceptional. Beautiful view from the restaurant overlooking the Isle of Skye. Staff is wonderful and breakfast had a great selection. The library is a hidden gem. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the fresh air. Make sure that you check out the gardens behind the building and the church ruins.
I wish we had more time to explore the area.
Gorgeous hotel and lush location. Spacious, comfortable bedroom with shared lounge and balcony. Very clean. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Friendly staff. Phenomenal views of pasture, harbor, and Skye. Lovely paths and gardens to explore. Plenty of activities for families. Simply the best!
For sure one of the best in the area. Quiet area, very nice rooms and the view over Isle of Skye is stunning. The area around the hotel is just amazingly clean and very well maintaining. Personnel very friendly, food just amazing. I could not ask for more! All was above my expectations.
Amazing stay in Raasay, very welcoming and comfortable. Lovely room, Incredible view from the dining room, delicious breakfast. The tour of the distillery is also a must. Everything is lovely and the staff is attentive and caring.
They hotel was absolutely beautiful
The staff were beyond helpful and nothing was too much trouble…
The “little extras” given were well appreciated and unexpected. Well worth a visit!
Plus the whisky is absolutely stunning!
Best staff ever! Made us feel warm and welcome. Small island with lots of character. Only 30 minute ferry ride away and plenty to see on Raasay. Recommend eating every meal here. Worth the price and all local.
Everything is perfect! Enjoy the Balcony Suits! They even has the board game available in the lounge! All the staffs are very kind. Anyway, Raasay House Hotel is the choice u won't regret.
A picturesque hostel with large rooms.
Very clean and staff excellent.
Great food and amazing location.
Swimming in the sea a must!!
