Isle of Eriska Hotel Spa & Island

Fabulous location, room was beautiful. Staff were amazing and very attentive. We had our two year old with us and they were all very accommodating and kind with her. I'd highly recommend the hot stone massage, Nicola was fabulous. Best massage I've ever experienced. We were lucky enough to see the otter, wild deer and a sea eagle!

Last time we were here it was a birthday celebration just the 2 of us. This time we return with our 2 children in tow and we are so happy we did. The owners have certainly invested since we were last here in 2019 and it shows. We stayed in a 2 bedroom cottage with hot tub this time and it was just as wonderful and private as the Hilltop we had last time. We spent a days exploring the island, animals and swimming in the pool. Mum even managed to have a facial by the lovely Nic. We ate in The Deck, serving small plates. My children can vouch for the mini burgers. Thank you to all the helpful and patient staff, they really went out their way with the kids!

Had the most fantastic stay, would highly recommend the Hilltops to anyone looking for a break away as a couple or friends. My friend and I often enjoy a couple of days away to enjoy some peace and ideally a massage or two. The views from the Hilltops are stunning and we literally only left the hot tub for a treatment in the spa, a wee wander to visit the animals and a snack. Staff were delightful, and friendly and just what we needed.

First of all, I have stayed in some fabulous 5* hotels, home and abroad such as Chewton Glen, which are truly the finest standard you can imagine. I expected the same from the Isle of Eriska after having paid similar money of £650 per night. Sadly, this wasn't the case. CHECK IN - Very quick and efficient. I had originally booked lunch 2.45 to allow my wife to have her spa treatment at 3.30, but had phoned to change lunch to 2.15 and spa to 3.15. The lunch booking was messed up, and we were served lunch at 2.50 and had to rush this as the spa at 3.15 was fully booked with no movement - not ideal. AFTERNOON TEA - was very nice, but I cannot say it was worth the money. 8 finger sandwiches, 4 scones and 4 bite-sized cakes for £80? Not worth it by a long way. ROOM - not the Spa suite as advertised on the website, the room was nice, but nothing like the advertised room. I found it very disjointed, like there were many bits of other rooms put in this room, and nothing matched. Plastic chairs at the glass table and desk? 5* nope! It was nice enough, but if I had seen this before I booked, I wouldn't have booked it for this type of money. We're talking £650 per night - I think it certainly wasn't worth this, perhaps £400 at a push, taking into account the hot tub. Too many small things overlooked - lots of chipped paintwork, cracks in the ceiling, really shabby wallpaper repairs, a control missing for the media wall fire, dressing table seen better years under the glass cover - a little bit of paint repair? Bedside cabinet, the same - a little bit of TLC. True 5* hotels don't miss these small things. When you pay top dollar, you expect the best. Eriska disappointed. Management needs to be hauled over the coals, big time. BATHROOM - Quite excellent, beautiful. Great shower and rolltop bath. HOT TUB - Private hot tub was fully prepared and ready to go, very clean, excellent. BAR - Very well run by Jordan, I believe. Wonderful staff member, great way of working with the clients and working the room. Top class. RESTAURANT - Kiaran, the restaurant manager, is the star of the show, an absolute credit to the hotel. Superb personality, charisma and way of interacting with guests is second to none. An absolute cut above any other staff member I've encountered elsewhere. He made us feel very comfortable and, more importantly, feel special without being OTT. The real lasting impression I leave Eriska with is his chat and character. A superstar. SPA - I never had treatments, but my wife did; she said it was right up there with the best she's had. Faultless. FOOD - Main house 1* Michelin menu - It was utterly superb, presentation was sublime, food delicious, service top notch. You cannot fault it. 10/10. Waiting staff superb. GROUNDS - very pretty place, great venue. Maps were provided, etc. What must change, though, is the signposting around the map points - it was very poor. Signposts on the route need to be more frequent and better signpo

Super comfortable bed, lovely Manor House sat on a private island “Isle of Eriska”. This place is beautiful. It’s so quiet and relaxing. My wife and I went because she loves to relax and loves a spa experience. I love to walk around and explore surroundings, this place had both. If you love the seclusion of nature in an old manor estate with amazing service, then please go and try this place. The team were amazing, they couldn’t do enough to make sure we had a great experience. We will be back to visit again and would recommend it to anyone asking. Thank you to the team at Eriska!
