Raasay House is a hidden gem. It reflects the beautiful nature of Scotland.
Set in a converted cluster of fisherman’s houses along Portree Harbor the hotel offers plenty of character and quirks. There are 17 bedrooms with attached bathroom with all expected facilities.

The check-in process was fast and the staff were helpful.

The location was ideal. The breakfasts were quite adequate. The dinner we ate in the restaurant was quite good as well.

Great host and our room had a beautiful view of the harbour. Breakfast was huge and delicious, you might not need to eat until dinner!

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.
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.
Location is perfect, the room was comfortable and the views were amazing… we particularly liked the honesty bar and the residents lounge, again this was comfortable and the views were to die for. The distillery tour was informative and fun, Steve was the best tour guide. We would highly recommend the Isle of Raasay Distillery to everyone.
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!
The location of the hotel is simply amazing. Straight off the ferry from Sconser and a 2 minute drive. The views from the hotel are breathtaking. Hotel itself looks great. Evening meal staff were really friendly and efficient. Evening dinner was superb.
Isle of Raasay Distillery is situated conveniently close to the Ferry Terminal and within walking distance to the Raasay Hotel for dinner. Decor was Scandi/Scot trendy with fabulous attention to detail. Exceptional views across the water to Skye.
A small little place on this planet which was overwhelming and outstanding! What a magnificent hotel and distillery to stay in. Very welcoming staff and the whiskey tasting very enjoyable and relaxing. Breakfast was 5 star!!!
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.
Loved the location, the room and the friendly greeting we recieved upon arrival. Very happy that the hotel was dog friendly. Excellent tour around the distillery included.
A picturesque hostel with large rooms.
Very clean and staff excellent.
Great food and amazing location.
Swimming in the sea a must!!
