Jura Hotel

We visited with friends after visiting Islay. The hotel is beautifully situated and the views from the hotel are lovely.|Jura is a beautiful island. Walking is good, and can accomodatecthosexwantibg flat walks and those needing more difficult trails.|There is wildlife and whisky.|The Lussa gin is excellent too.|The staff at the hotel were very good, the managing couple who run the hotel and the kitchen are very friendly and personable.|The food was excellent, and prepared with local produce wherever possible.|We really enjoyed our stay. I have no hesitation recommending the hotel and Jura for a holiday

This a hotel with a difference. It is also a campsite, and possibly the only one on Jura. Cycle and tent friendly and very welcoming. Pitches were on a large field in front of the hotel and next to the beach. The toilets,though unisex, were perfect, clean and modern. They were separate from the hotel as such and were accessed by a key fob which was provided by reception for a returnable deposit. Though we cooked for ourselves, meals are available at the hotel. There is also a small shop nearby which which will cater for most people's needs. Perfect.

Actually staying in a cottage in the village but visited the pub for a drink. Good selection of draught lager and beer but an even better selection of local spirits. Food is delicious and fresh, and quickly cooked and delivered to the table. Reasonably priced food and the local lager is a reasonable £5.50 a pint. Views from the bar windows are unbeatable, and no doubt that applies to the restaurant too. Hotel is just in front of the Jura Distillery, an also must visit when you're on the island.

Beautiful location. Great food and atmosphere. I wasn't happy with the cashless service they're boasting about. It's really a ploy to sneak a 10% service charge onto every bill without you noticing. I don't like being pressured into leaving a tip.

Arriving in Jura, a couple of hours before our check in we stopped in Craighouse for a drink at the Jura Hotel. The bar was really nicely fitted out with great views of the harbour, and most importantly was dog friendly. Service was great, and when chatting to the barmen, they tried to sell us the new scallops special on the menu.. despite us having a full Scottish breakfast three hours before, we went for it.. and wow!! |It was so good we revisited the following day, and had the scallops again, this time followed by fantastic main courses. Totally recommend!!

this hotel was so disappointing. breakfast was a disaster zone with one stressed out person serving and the same for dinner. I did not feel welcome or taken care of. it was stressful to get served at every meal and having to wait a long time for food and drinks. the french toast at breakfast was disgusting but the dinners were good: once i actually got served. On arrival i was coldly handed my key with no welcome! This place could be lovely as the location is amazing but the horrible service really took away from|it. the bed and bedlinen in the room was nice and while there was a good selection of coffees and teas in the room, but for my 3 day stay they never added milk! the window and the bathroom light were broken . there were lots of men in the restaurant in work boiler suits so not a holiday feel really and I assume they were a priority to the hotel

This welcoming hotel on a tiny island is the epitome of great Scottish hospitality and could hold its own in any setting. However it not only occupies an idyllic situation (small friendly village, beside the sea with outstanding views to outlying isles and the mountains of the mainland beyond) but also the most spectacular set of loveliest staff we have come across in a long time. We were treated throughout with kindness and consideration. They always made time to chat no matter how busy and to make you feel special and valued. On top of that, the place is being refurbished to high standards, the food offer is excellent and varied (featuring local produce) and as it is right next to the iconic distillery the bar naturally features the whisky, rum and gin produced on the island. Our room was outstanding with an incredibly glamorous bathroom featuring stand alone tub, walk in shower and underfloor heating. Looking out across the bay was wonderful in all weathers and we will never forget the sight of two majestic stags strolling along the road under our window early one morning. Would recommend and return!

We had an amazing two night stay at Jura Hotel. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, they really made us feel at home. We had evening meals and breakfast and the food was outstanding. The room was beautiful, clean and with incredible views across Small Isles Bay. We would recommend Jura Hotel very highly. We will definitely be returning. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
