The location and view were wonderful. The room was clean. We had a top floor room so both sides of the room slopped and we kept hitting our heads until we got used to it.

As a former inn keeper I know that sometimes things are not what one might expect, but how you deal with this is a true reflection of how client focused an establishment might be.
I had booked two rooms and my room was exactly as expected, bright cheery and had a great view over the harbour. The bed mattress was a little too soft for my liking and I think might slowly sinking towards the end of its life. That said I did sleep well. The bathroom sink had a loose hot tap as the plastic washer had snapped underneath it. I imagine that trying to get a simple thing like that fixed on Islay is an issue and it caused no problem as the tap worked fine but I would worry how long it might be before a leak happens. The crew who serviced the rooms did a fantastic job and cleanliness was top notch.
Breakfast was simple but tasty and there was a good selection of choices. All the staff I engaged with were delightful but a special mention must be given to the ever smiling Kim on reception.
Despite facing the main road in Port Ellen the hotel was quiet. Th weather was unseasonably warm and dry and the sun shone long and hard; thus the view from the front of the hotel was fantastic.
My friend was disappointed in his room choice. Nothing wrong with the room but simply too small for him and he had selected the wrong room. As the hotel was full he was unable to move room for two nights thus he decided to check out and move to the Islay hotel. No 1 Charlotte Street had no obligation to offer him a refund as it was his choice. However they choose to refund the two nights he had not stayed which is simply 'above and beyond'.
If you want a reasonably priced in Port Ellen I would heartily recommend this place and do say hello to Kim from me.....she is a commensurate hospitality professional with many years experience and is also extremely charming.

Everything! The house was stunning, you couldn’t ask for more. It is close to the port and distilleries. I liked everything! The host Margaret was a great lady. We were so welcomed on arrival, and through our stay! Our ferry were cancelled and we need to leave our car at the port to secure a spot.
She came pick us up and dropped us off on the next day. Prepared not just breakfast but a food hamper to get us through the day at the port Askaig. ATM, we are waiting at the port for our chance to get on the ferry. We are so grateful that we have met Margaret.

Great base to explore the Island of islay.
Great base to explore the Island of islay. Wonderful bird life. Peace and tranquility, meeting interesting people, visiting bird sanctuaries and just being in a beautiful setting of Islay. Flora my host was a kind and helpful and the cottage well appointed. The distillery's had excellent facilities with cafe's, restaurant's and whisky tasting. Will visit Islay again for the beauty and birdlife and friendliness of the local people.

The views out of the front of the house were stunning.
The views out of the front of the house were stunning. The area is ok but apart from the distilleries it has little. The local hotel is lovely and the host a very welcoming fellow.
Overall for the price I paid I could have stayed at one of the lovely hotels on the island, but, my wife and I prefer to be a bit more independent so booked this bi "apartment" suitable for six people. I think if I had taken friends they would have gone upstairs and threatened the people living there....
