Highly Recommend

Looking out towards Holy Isle, this small hotel is a lovely place to stay when visiting Arran. Staff were friendly and very helpful, food was excellent. The garden was perfect to relax in after a hilly round of golf! Highly recommended

Nice room, mostly nice people

Room was lovely, great view from hotel, a little unfortunate that room was above smoking area so room smelt a little bit in the evening. Staff were kind apart from one who we unfortunately had to deal with at dinner and at check out.

The glenisle was a great stay , The room was very spacious with a modern/updated feel to it , everything was clean , view out of window was great ( the beach and holy isle ) especially at sunrise Breakfast was great with plenty to choose from , Beach was right across the road , supermarket 2 min walk and ferry 10 min drive Joy was very accommodating with nothing too much bother as was the owner whom we also met on our 2nd night This property also serves afternoon and evening meals at really great prices and tastes great , Having stayed in many hotels/b&b in arran , this is one of the best we’ve visited and we’ll definitely be back

From the moment we stepped inside Glenisle, the ambiance of the place and the management and staff were second to none and we'll definitely be revisiting that's for certain. 😊😊

Adjacent building rooms sadly mediocre

We booked a "Double Room", and on our arrival were taken to the adjacent building (this was not specified in our booking). The room looked like someone's badly maintained and not very clean spare room. Lack of gas supply meant there was no hot water from the tap (so washing our hands in February was painful), the radiators didn't work (instead there were two noisy portable heaters which made sleeping very difficult). There were spiderwebs everywhere, the bed was very uncomfortable. Since this clearly didnt match what we booked, we asked reception for a resolution but they didn't have any free equivalent rooms and didn't want to upgrade us to something better. Overall a real disappointment - the only saving point was the view which was very pretty. I don't doubt the proper "double rooms" in the main building are gorgeous, but we weren't given those. To think that the price is the same between the two is unacceptable. A real shame as this was our first holiday in ages.

The Glenisle Hotel is located in Lamlash with a stunning view across to the Holy Isle- from the top room. Central, and convenient for other eateries and bars, with a Co-op Market a short walk. Hotel was spotless and comfortable, with staff friendly and welcoming. Carpark was small, but enough space at front to park on road. A nice seat across from Hotel front entrance to take in the view 🤗
