We stayed at the hotel for three nights and enjoyed every moment of our stay. Our Delux room was spacious and clean, but the view of the sea was the biggest highlight! The breakfast was delicious and fresh, we enjoyed playing board games and darts in the leisure rooms of the hotel. The only thing I would like to note is that the hotel is situated in the hill so takes fair amount of strength to get there.

We ate at this restaurant but were not staying at the hotel. Location is very good. Menu broad. Starter which was a selection of various type of local fish was very good. For main I had burger which was a bit disappointing. My partner really liked her chicken and lentils. Atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit dead, it missed something, maybe light music I rated a 4, but on the lower end

Comfortable, friendly hotel with superb views from water facing rooms and the terrace . Had a lovely fishy lunch and drinks on the terrace and a good evening meal of mainly seafood in the bright dining/bar area..excellent views from this dining area at breakfast. Especially when the weather is good there is nowhere better.

Sunday lunch - roast beef was gristly and disappointing, fish and chips better. Service a bit abrupt. Best thing was the view over the harbour. There’s plenty of choice in Tobermory and I can see why this place isn’t very busy. Wouldn’t bother going back.

We had a great dinner here and the booking process online was really simple and fast. Views from the window seat we had were great overlooking the harbour from the top of the town! Food was excellent and the service was brilliant - our bubbly and informative kiwi waitress was a joy! There was a great wine list and an even better whisky selection. The only down side was that they didn’t seem to have a bar space to go and sit in after dinner. There was a lounge but you had to buy drinks at the end of dinner to take with you into there. I would just mention that the restaurant is dog friendly - which we loved, but may not be to everyone’s liking.

The reception was very warm and kind. Kirsty welcomed us giving all the necessary instructions. She made sure we have everything we need for a smooth nice stay. The room was prepared by the time we arrived. We needed an iron and a table for some shirts to be ironed, which Kirsty immediately delivered to our room. Since l am a wisky fan, l enquired about the local distilery. Well, l did not know that Kirsty used to worked there, so she flooded me with very interesting informations about it. The next day we went and purchased 2 bottles of their finest local Ledaig. The hotel room was very spacious, with a fantastic view to the harbour. I will rry to attach some pictures here if possible. The bed was supper! I slept in the same position for 10 hours, which usually does not happen. The hotel was quiet and clean. The breakfast with a view just came to add an extra star to the 5 l would give this hotel.... Very friendly staff, especially Maria who helped us with the breakfast related things. Overall, a 6 star hotel! We will defo come back one day...

The hotel website says “Our Conservatory Restaurant and Bar is open to Residents and Non Residents all week…With stunning views of Tobermory bay and the sound of Mull, what better place to watch the world go by?” Well I could think of quite a lot of places. I popped in just after 6pm for a pint but as I headed from the bar across the near deserted room to a table by the window with my bottle of ale (£7.50) I was gruffly told by an incredibly condescending waitress that I couldn’t sit there but had to sit on the other side of the room, away from the window and behind a pillar. Presumably in case a coach load of diners suddenly turned up because nearly all the tables were empty. I said I’d sit on the terrace outside but she wouldn’t tell me how to get there. When I put my beer down and said I’d go elsewhere then, she laughed in my face. I don’t know if this waitress was an anomaly but the impression left on me is that you’d get a better welcome at Fawlty Towers than the Western Isles hotel.

I’m almost sorry to have to give only 3 stars, all was going so well with pre dinner cocktails and the fantastic view, right up until the main was served when the waiter queried “did you only order one main course?” Apparently the venison I had ordered was not available and nobody had thought to tell me! I then ordered a substitute main and sat watching my partner eat, she had to do the same while I ate my main! Not the romantic meal I had hoped for. We did get apologies and my main was left off the bill so some effort was made to rectify the mistake but sadly our evening was spoiled.

We were both delighted with our choices, I went for a Viogner and my partner went for the Montepulciano d’Abruzzo, both amazing recommendations! We absolutely loved soaking up the views from the restaurant with an amazing glass of wine and brilliant service from all of the wonderful staff.

Then we sat in the comfortable sitting room with great books and an amazing view. Then onto dinner, generous portions, friendly staff, more amazing views, and grooves music.

Steer clear of this establishment; not only is the service nonexistent, but you're also greeted with the waiter's bad breath. The seafood platter we ordered was disappointing, with low-quality salmon cuts, poorly cleaned mussels, subpar hummus, and just four crackers. We were served water glasses that appeared unwashed, adding to the overall disgust with this establishment.

The food and drinks were nice. Service was prompt. One issue: The chairs have square pads on a round seat. The pad is too wide so it kept sliding sideways.

Amazing hotel, fantastic staff, wonderful food!! Hotel is at the top of the hill overlooking Tobermory bay. We dodged all the bad weather happening on the mainland and arrived in glorious sunshine and had 3 days of perfect weather. When checking in the lady at reception gave us the Macallan room on the third floor. No lift available so lots is stairs to get there, but what a view!! The room itself was huge and the shower room was a decent size with great shower. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The TV is small and because of the size of the room it was hard to watch so we didn’t bother with it, the view of the bay was more than enough to compensate. Every member of staff was helpful and smiling and honestly couldn’t do enough for us. We had dinner on the first night and I had the Isle of Mull scallops with black pudding crumb, apple purée and lemon dill for starter and had the chicken burger with smoked bacon, melted Brie and cranberry relish for mains. My partner had the Island crab linguine with roasted garlic, rocket & fresh mint (starter size) and also Pumpkin and sage tortellini (also starter size). For dessert she had the sticky toffee pudding with puff candy, toffee sauce and vanilla ice cream which she said was the best she had ever had. The food was just spectacular. Overall we had a great time here and would definitely be back. 100% recommend.

We were lucky enough to book in for dinner one night on our trip to Tobermory. Our own hotel restaurant left a lot to be desired. Immediately as you enter the hotel it feels light and welcoming. We were greeted by a waiter who was lovely (would have been better if he’d not be chewing gum) and seated at our table. We were immediately brought bread and provided with the menus. The view was fantastic of the harbour. The restaurant has so many windows so you really do get a good view. My mum and I both ordered the same main and were happy with what we received. The only issue was that the fish portion was really quite small. Overall a lovely evening. If we were to return to Tobermory we would definitely try to stay at this hotel.

This was a return visit for us after a nearly thirty year hiatus. The hotel was for many years allied with Best Western, but is now totally independent. Our room was spacious and had a great view of the Tobermory harbor and the approaches from the sea. Our food was very good, especially the scallops, which were sourced locally and were perhaps the best I have ever eaten. The only potential drawback was the lack of an elevator, which seemed to unsettle elderly guests attempting to lug heavy suitcases. We knew this in advance and opted to only bring in small bags with essentials.

I took my partner here for a special treat. We got a fabulous table by the window and were very impressed by the view. Our starters were fine, if on the pricey side but that was OK, we knew it was an upmarket joint. However the mains were hugely disappointing. The chef's take on aubergine parmigiana - usually a succulent, cheesy dish - was a tiny, dry vegetable kebab with a couple of slices of aubergine interspersed with some other vegetable and one thin slice of mozzarella, sitting in a pool of tomato sauce. There may have been a couple of eerie wisps of salad on the plate too. Costing £18, I ate it in under two minutes. I could forgive a deconstructed take on a classic Italian dish were it creative and tasty but this was one of the most disappointing eating experiences of my life and I actually felt trolled by the chef given the ingredients cannot have cost more than a couple of pounds and the execution was so dire.My partner's hake - monkish was off - wasn't a whole fish, but a small portion of a fillet with a disc of potato and root vegetables and samphire. It may have served as a starter but as a main for £22 it was neither substantial nor impressive.Like fools, we didn't complain but equally nobody asked us how our meal was during or afterwards hence this review.With drinks our bill was over £100 and I have to say I felt like a mark paying it. The owners and chefs cannot believe these mains are acceptable - it feels like they are seeing how much they can cut costs and get away with it. We were not expecting a pub lunch but one does expect to feel slightly satiated after two courses.We went down to the harbour afterwards for some fish and chips as we were so hungry and vowed to leave a warning for others. Proceed with caution!

Eat here...2 draught beers not available. Starter was good but very expensive.Main course arrived plates were warm food was cold...returned food. Food arrived again...hot plates only warm food. Potato was cold...by this time had been there for 90 mins so just eat what seemed like frozen lamb roll and very overcooked broccoli. Husband had very bland monkfish...no real sparkle or presentation.Restaurant was tired, table was rickety...chairs uncomfortable. Although the view was great.My recommendation don't go...at least they were sensible enough not to charge us!

On the basis of good reviews we booked dinner in the spectacular conservatory restaurant. Alas that was all we got.My wife chose scallops which she had to send back as they were cold. I chose haggis and black pudding bonbons which were as exciting as the tastless whisky cream sauce. We both chose the lamb one medium and one well done. Both plates were identical with tough slices of lamb in a glutinous 'red wine jus' served with lukewarm unminted mash and limp broccoli. Both were returned to the kitchen and nobody other than the poor waitress appearing to apologise. We left shortly afterwards having drunk our glasses of wine from miniature bottles never shown to us. To cap it all and make us really feel welcome the staff were resetting the empty tables ready for breakfast at 8pm!Surely anybody can do better than this.

We had an evening meal here whilst stopping in Tobermory. The food was excellent and the views from the restaurant across the bay were amazing. Service was, perhaps, a little on the slow side but I expect Covid was having an impact and actually the views were so good that no one was in a rush!

Had dinner at the hotel this evening and whilst all precautions for covid have been followed there were 3 couples with four dogs in the restaurant. Is this necessary and hygienic. The staff had to step over dogs when walking past and the temptation is for them to pet the dogs then serve food. Do people really need to take the dogs with them, can they not leave them in a car or in their room.The smell of wet dogs does not enhance the flavour of the food

Food was very well presented and tasted amazing. Barman Owen made the visit perfect with his excellent Cosmopolitan cocktail and great choice of local whisky for the end of the meal. Thoroughly recommended.

A very pleasant experience, beautiful views from the restaurant and the food was excellent. Credit to the staff who were very friendly and pleasant, conducted themselves admirably when confronted with some incredibly rude and difficult customers. Chloe’s drinks were excellent!

Four of us booked a table near the end of a week's sailing. The welcome was warm and the Covid precautions were efficient. The service was very smooth and friendly. The dining room is in a spacious conservatory and the view out over the harbour - it was a lovely sunny evening - was magical. The menu is reasonably mainstream but we thought the cooking was excellent. Our group all started with the spectacular smoked seafood platter, had lamb, fish and vegetarian for the mains and most finished with the pistachio and orange tart. Everything was delicious and nicely presented. The wine list was well varied and both the white and the red we chose were good. Altogether we were very impressed.

Spectacular view, nice atmosphere - sadly that’s the best of it! Our waitress was very rude. Half the wines were missing from the menu, langoustines also missing - then when we ordered olives, she simply said “No.” So they were out of those too, it seems? No large bottles of sparkling water either. We also asked for a tad more time to decide on our order and she came back literally 30 seconds later and asked if we were done yet, very strange; we were clearly still deciding.Could have been saved by some decent food, but the gnocchi was utterly tasteless, sweet potato fries were soggy and wildly undercooked, and fish and chips frankly average. Didn’t stay for dessert. Cocktails looked good so would recommend you go for a drink and enjoy the view!Much better food elsewhere in Mull.

Food was lovely and well priced. 2 courses for the price of 1. I got soup to start which tasted homemade, a hot roll and butter which was lovely. My main was tempore haddock and chips with peas and tartare sauce which was absolutely gorgeous tbh. Well impressed. My husband had chicken strips in spicy sauce to start and a burger with skinny fries and coleslaw which he really enjoyed. My son had chicken strips and fries for his main, his dessert was brownie and ice cream - from the kids menu as he is 9. My son's dessert was forgotten about for over half an hour but he got it eventually when I reminded the server; they were busy so I can't feel too annoyed. Lovely restaurant. Would eat there again.

Lovely warm welcome followed by excellent service. I had the beef burger for dinner and can honestly say that it was the best burger I have ever eaten and I have had burgers all over the world. The beer’s were great and finished off the night with a few whiskeys from their very comprehensive list. Brilliant place. I will be back.

I am giving you an excellent review based on previous visits but arrived Thursday 14th November at 11:15 and it was closed. Website says open at 10:00 and opening time on door says 10:30. Several people left disappointed during my 20min seat on bench. Off to Port Bannatyne for my brunch. Can you update your opening hours on door and social media platforms.

Met up with a friend for lunch today. ALWAYS reliably happy with our meals at The Esplanade over the many years.... But today's young chef was very astute with his skills. We had *Cullen skink, the baguette was fresh and warmed....so often it is not; (it's the little things like this that make you come back,), *fish n chips, and *incredibly chunky steak pie, with a lid rising up to the ceiling I'm my opinion all 3 meals really were the best examples on the island. Well done to: *The Esplanade for keeping up the standards of quality which bring people back * The Chef * The always friendly and helpful waitress 😁 (Love the new curtains and furnishings 😁)
