The Western Isles Hotel is a 28 bedroom Victorian Hotel, built 1883. It stands majestically against the skyline overlooking beautiful Tohennory Bay. With panoramic views over the Sound of Mull and Tobermory's brightly coloured houses. The Hotel has arguably one of the best views in the Hebridean islands and is a haven of comfort with its warming whiskies and log fires.
There are many places to visit on Mull - lona and Ulva are easily accessible - and winter months are ideal for seeing wildlife - deer, seals, otters, Golden and Sea Eagles and other bird species are abundant. 'Romantic' and 'Activity breaks' are available.
When you enter the reception area of the hotel you immediately step into the elegance of a previous generation, with the high standard of facilities demanded by the modern traveller.

The Isle of Mull is the second largest of the Hebrides, lying just off the west coast of Scotland more or less half-way up. It is an island of peninsulas which give it a long and varied coastline offering the visitor endless days of exploration and discovery. The economy is a healthy mix of farming, fishing, and tourism giving the visitor with a view of genuine island life while providing lots of interesting recreations. The mountains which stretch across the middle of the island rise to over 900m and are well-loved by hill walkers such is the variety of routes and views to be enjoyed.
Tobermory was built as a fishing port in the late 18th century and is now the main village on Mull. It is a picture-postcard of a place with the brightly painted buildings along the pier and the high wooded hills surrounding the bay. The village has a good variety of shops, hotels, and other accommodation as well as being the administrative centre for the island. The harbour is always busy with fishing boats, yachts and the ferry to and from Kilchoan on mainland Scotland during the summer months.
