The Royal Hotel Stornoway is just a few steps from the town centre, directly opposite the yacht marina. It’s within a minute or two’s drive of (and reasonable walking distance from) the Western Isles Hospital, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar and many other businesses. The three-star Royal Hotel is equally enjoyable for holiday visitors to the Outer Hebrides, many of whom delight in the views over the marina to the castle and its surrounding parkland.
The hotel has 24 renovated bedrooms, all with bath and/or shower, free wi-fi and room service during lunch and dinner periods. Dining is a special pleasure in the traditional and informal Boatshed restaurant. Here our head chef is well known (and much appreciated) for his artistic creation of contemporary dishes that make the most of local Scottish produce. For more casual dining, a coffee, a drink or just a quick snack, our HS-1 Cafe Bar is a favourite with local residents as well as many of our hotel guests.
Our standard overnight accommodation tariffs include bed and breakfast which is a full Scottish, continental or your choice of one of our breakfast specialities.
Outside you’re only a short stroll away from a footpath leading into paths and cycle tracks among the several square miles of wooded parklands and golf course that surround Lews Castle. On the doorstep of the hotel, Stornoway has a wide range of facilities, including an interesting range of independent shops, harbours and the contemporary arts centre, An Lanntair.
At the Royal Hotel Stornoway, you’ll enjoy the best of hospitality for which the Outer Hebrides is so well known. Relaxed, yet attentive to your every need.
