The hotel offers stunning views of Tarbert harbor and the rooms are cozy with a great view of the harbor. The service needs improvement as we found a staff member asleep on the second night. The location is perfect, right on the harbor front, though we faced issues with a canceled ferry. The dining experience includes hot dishes cooked to order, featuring Angus beef. The facilities are adequate for a comfortable stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The barge rooms right on the water were a unique experience, with the window open to enjoy the fresh sea breeze and lovely touches that made it an unforgettable stay overlooking the Harbour. However, I did encounter some challenges with a member of the staff who needed improvement in their customer service, and it was quite surprising to find them asleep when I went downstairs on the second night. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience was delightful.
