Port Charlotte Youth Hostel, hotel in Port Charlotte

Featuring free WiFi, Port Charlotte Youth Hostel offers accommodation in Port Charlotte. Free private parking is available on site. Each room has a shared bathroom.

1. Staff - Karl & Lorna are such excellent & helpful individual. We connected extremely well as Karl & I shared our appreciation of the great director Satyajit Ray and he has also been to my city. So we shared & exchanged a lot of views. Additionally, when my ferry got cancelled due to bad weather, Karl helped me change my reservation from Oban Youth Hostel to Port Charlotte Youth Hostel. In addition, he also helped me secure a bed at the Oban Youth Hostel next day through their own system whereas there was no availability for Oban Youth Hostel on booking.com. Lorna helped me secure reservation at the fantastic sea food kitchen restaurant next door. They are so helpful. Thank you so much!!! 2. Location - Simply excellent. Walking distance to Bruichladdich distillery, bus stop (just 5 min walk), eateries and convenience store. 3. Facilities - Huge Kitchen and Lounge area with super comfy furnitures & fixtures. Open a dram in their lounge on a stormy evening and enjoy a book. You will be lost in your own world. 4. Rooms - Super clean and super comfy with lockers underneath your bed. The bed has reading light, USB charging point, UK type electric plug points and a wash basin with mirror, a table and hooks for hanging your coats & clothes. Super arrangement. 5. Toilets & Bathrooms - Super clean and well fitted.

No. 1 Charlotte Street, hotel in Port Charlotte

Located in Port Ellen, No. 1 Charlotte Street has a garden, shared lounge, bar, and free WiFi. The rooms in the hotel are fitted with a coffee machine.

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.

    The staff were outstanding, so friendly and nothing seemed to be an issue for them. Rarely have I ever stayed somewhere that compares with the genuine warmth and kindness. My bedroom was a little disappointing as it was very small and would have been near impossible if I was sharing. It needs an upgrade, as does the bathroom which was a bit below standard. The food and bar were excellent and can't really be faulted. If the bedrooms do get an upgrade, then this will be difficult to beat.

    Beautiful well preserved Island village with peaceful shoreline and harbour in a good location for exploring nature preserves, clifftop vilages and unspoilt Atlantic beaches. Excellent community run campsite with excellent restaurant as long as you book for the evening. There is a popular sea food restaurant and hotel in addition to the one we stayed in. Suggest you plan your eating in advance as they tend to be fully booked at peak times. Visit the local distillery at Bruichladdie or the atlantic coast villages of port na haven or port wemyss.

    Several eateries, you mostly need to book in advance. All within walking distance of each other. Distillery close by driveable or you can walk /cycle , there is a made path along the coast . There is a little museum/info/visitor centre. There is a post office, shop and petrol station. Attractive little village, residents very friendly , small beach and walk at the front . Light house close by.

    A small quiet friendly village on the Island with a good restaurant plus a local hotel with bar also serving meals. A local spar shop catering for small items with the town of Bowmore a few miles away catering for larger needs. A very enjoyable place to spend some chill time with many interesting places to visit on the island not least the abundance of whisky distilleries.

    Comfortable beds.Lovely well equipped Kitchen.Loads of books about local knowledge and a comfy chair to sit in to look! Good situation for touring the island, I had a car which I think would be essential, but I was only there for 3 days , not long enough! so maybe with a bit more time you could manage with public transport and walking.BUT you wouldnt get to the more isolated spots. I loved Portnahaven but the Island is full of gems and very unspoilt. Excellent birding at Loch Gruinart, from the hides.Museum in Port Charlotte well worth a visit just across the road from the hostel. Port Charlotte village has a couple of hostelries, they both do food and there was music one night.Also it is right beside Loch Indaal so lovely views across to Bowmore.
