Beautiful location, close to ferry! Nice shower and bath. Large towels. Breakfast was decent but they forgot to put the sausage on the plate and when asked, said they would bring it but had already finished eating before it arrived.

Everything about this place was great. From the welcome we got at the beginning to the cozy cabin and the proximity to the ferry station. Great value for money in the usually expensive Isle of Skye.
Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links !
Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links ! Ferries and Trains ! The train journey is spectacular and worth every Penny and minute of the 5 hours from Glasgow or 2 hours plus from Fort William … I’m not a train spotter by any means or a Harry Potter fan but this journey as always been on my travel bucket list and did not disappoint!
Good bar / restaurant … great value great food at the top of the hill and friendly locals !! Be aware as you’d expect not a lot open in the depths of winter!! But enough and how I personally like it !!

The scenery was breathtaking, locals so friendly and helpful. Only downside several places were closed due to staff shortages.

Mallaig is at its heart an old fishing town which has seen that part of its self-image eroded by the economics of fisheries across the land. Meanwhile it has become popular because of the steam railway and Harry Potter. Though this has improved the economy it feels like the place begrudges this new found dimension and would prefer to revert to its quieter fish-focussed past. Some of the restaurants feel like they are profiteering - £11 for 4 tiny pieces of salt and pepper squid slapped on the table is indicative. Overpriced dishes and underwhelming service. Is it me or do the staff in the hostelries and shops project an air that says they've had enough and want to scuttle off for their own vacation? They need to decide to up their game or move over for someone with more stamina, energy and understanding of customer service. Not somewhere for which I will hold fond memories. The exception to all this is the host of the pod who was bright and cheerful and could not be more helpful.

Plenty of places to eat.
Plenty of places to eat. Mallaig gets busy when the steam train(think Harry Potter) from Fort William arrives.
Surprisingly, many shops were closed on Saturday morning.
Great smoked fish and shellfish from Andy Race fish merchant, but shop not open on Saturday.

It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port.
It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port. It has a huge number of cafes, restaurants and tourist facilities. Great rail and road communications. Lovely circular walk above the town - great views.
The Marina is adorable boutique hotel right next to the train station. My room was a small clean white sunny room overlooking the train depot and the sea. Note that my beautiful room was in the top floor, so I needed help getting my larger suitcase up the narrow stairs. The couple running the hotel are sweet, accommodating and hardworking. They’re still working to provide more features to the hotel (like a bar) and it’ll be spectacular when finished.
The location of The Steam Inn is great, right in the heart of Mallaig and only 100m from the very picturesque harbour. The staff are warm and friendly and work hard to please their guests. The seafood on the menu is FANTASTIC. Staying for 6 nights we did not make it fully through the menu. Every dish was prepared and presented to our delight. We cannot complement The Steam Inn enough. We will certainly be back.
The hotel was a 2 minute walk from the station. The staff were lovely and welcoming giving us recommendations of where to go to eat out. Our room had a great view of the town and surrounding islands. The lounge area is beautifully decorated with plenty of comfortable sofas where you can have a drink Infront of a cosy log fire. My only regret is not booking for a longer stay. We will definitely return.
Probably the biggest hotel in Mallaig. It sits atop a wee hill with a large outdoor terrace and sun room overlooking the coast. The Isles of Eigg , Rum and Skye clearly in sight both from the front of the hotel and our room. Breakfast room was large and spacious with sea views and the grub was braw with tasty black and haggis puddings and all the usual stuff youd expect.
Donald was very welcoming on arrival .As we got there very late for check in time and
understanding. He also gave us a room upgrade which was lovely of him. As he didn't know this but,
we were on are honeymoon and on are last stay in Scotland which made it special thank you.
Seaview is a lovely place to stay and 10/10 for our room. Thank you.
The Marine is clean, comfortable and very well located, with fantastic views of the coast and the historical railway. Breakfast was great and very Covid safe. We had a couple of problems completely unrelated to the hotel during our stay in Mallaig, but each time the staff went out of their way to help. Would definitely return here.
The location is great, a very short stroll to the small centre of Mallaig. There's parking for everyone right by your pod. The pod was very clean and comfortable, with everything like new. Small but well laid-out so nothing felt cramped. Lovely view of the coast sat on the front porch, even a view of the steam train going by!
Great location in Mallaig. Rooms were clean and attractively presented with en suite shower and toilet. It was an old hotel so had no lift, but the stairs were manageable. Dinner in the bar was very pleasant and the staff went out of their way to provide a hot breakfast at 8 am so that we could catch the ferry to Skye.
everything was perfect. Good location, friendly hostess, hostess very helpful and answered all questions. I walked from Mallaig to Glenfinnan Viaduct and the Isle of Skye, so perfect base. I was even allowed to leave my things there after checking in, which was very nice for me. Pure recommendation!
Nice warm and friendly welcome. Clean room, and in a great location. Was passing through Mallaig enroute to Outer Hebrides so only stayed the one night. I didn't use the kitchen facilities but looked substantial for those wishing to use it, and there was a nice big washroom facility.
Perfect size and location, had everything we needed. They even provided oat milk for tea when I messaged to say we were vegan! We only stayed a few nights but feel like we got a lot out of Mallaig - and would definitely come back 😊
Locaed in the centre of Mallaig, close to shops, pubs and restaurants, also train station and ferry terminal.
Room was basic, with clean bedding and heating that works very well.
Would stay again!
Quaint stay in Mallaig since we wanted to catch the early morning ferry. The rooms are small but clean, with all necessities available! Pub food was decent, with really good desserts :)
The proximity of the lovely, quiet, beaches was wonderful. Fantastic for a beach based holiday and very close to Mallaig, which has a good few things to offer for a peaceful holiday.
