The restaurant was great, excellent service staff, everyone we met was great, professional, friendly and some we got to know a bit and they gave us advice for our travels we really appreciated.

The location is very quiet, in the middle of a beautiful landscape. Great for a nice morning walk. Still, within a short drive you can find restaurants, distilleries etc.
Thomas is a very friendly and welcoming host.
Rooms are great, spacious, newly renovated.
Breakfast ist awesome! Try the scrambled eggs any version.
Very nice garden to sit with a beer or for kids to play.
Will come again any time we’ll have the chance.
My whole family was very happy here.

The Islay Hotel is a great location for shops, eating out, distilleries and beaches. We found the staff to be very helpful and friendly. Our room was spotlessly clean and well organized. The breakfast was a very good start to our day. In addition to the hotel, we recommend the café at Ardbeg distillery for lunches and teas. On the road to Bowmore (on the right-hand side) is the Balaclava Byre Farm Shop and Restaurant, which also provides delicious food, using local produce from Islay.

The Bridgend is well located on the island. The restaurant is good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was disappointing but the bed was comfortable and the shower hot. 3 days on Islay was a good time but could easily stay longer.

Bridgend expertly handles what must regularly be a full house for lodging, dinner, breakfast, and more. Its central location to the sites and destinations across Islay make it a great launching point from which to explore, but it was also nice to return at the end of the day to relax and recover.

The setting, the Staff and the room were very good.
The ambience lacked any atmosphere and was not inviting to us.
Something is needing done to attract local patronage.
This would be helpful in establishing rapport between locals and visitors and demonstrate how friendly Islay people are.

Bridgend is a small village with a big heart.
Bridgend is a small village with a big heart. It benefits from a small convenience store and a two pump petrol/diesel station, as well as a putting and bowling green. Walks can be taken through the nearby woods and guests at Bridgend Hotel can benefit from a day fishing license. The restaurant at Bridgend Hotel is excellent, with a range of dishes made from many locally sourced ingredients. Both the breakfast and dinner are recommended. It's possible to walk towards the sea, though we could not find a way across to the beach - which is probably just as well as it protects the wildlife and potentially nesting birds. The local police officer stopped to say hello and offered us a lift back to the hotel - which was charming. Bridgend is well placed for further exploration of Islay, and would recommend traveling with an OS map to take full advantage of the tracks and pathways (if hiking).

Impulse 2 day visit to Islay to see family.
Impulse 2 day visit to Islay to see family. Bridgend is just one of many lovely little communities on the island. We were looking for peace and quiet, easy nature walks, birdlife etc. We did have lovely weather which helps, spring flowers all over the place, so many birds, even saw hares. The RSPB walking trails are well worth a visit. Food on the island was for the most part local and beautifully cooked, Loch Fyne Oysters are amazing and worth seeking out. Live music at Port Charlotte Hotel Wednesdays and Sunday evenings a total highlight but get there early, t'is standing room only but well well worth it. We had a car which made travelling around easy, and in spring there were not very many tourists or cars compared to other islands we have visited. All in all, if you are after a quiet, relaxed, peaceful and beautiful holiday and are ok with 'Variable' Scottish Weather, this is a bit of a gem.
Breakfast was a good range of food in a very nice dining room. Parking was sufficient and safe while the staff was top notch, from checking in to checking out. The room was a bit outdated but otherwise adequate for a nice stay on Islay. The hotel has a bar as well as a restaurant. It's centrally located so everything is within 20-30 minutes on the island, which is a huge plus for travelers with limited time (like ourselves).
This was our first Scottish Breakfast on our trip! It was Beautiful...just not a fan of the Haggis and Black Pudding! Loved everything else and our server was delightful. There were plenty of other options so I had plenty to eat. The dining room is beautiful, very period and inviting. The bar at the hotel was wonderful and we enjoyed our drinks upon arrival. Thank you for our great "First Night" in Scotland!
To start the location is off the beaten track which makes it exceptionally quiet, The host Thomas was first class absolutely nothing was to much trouble, I suppose the stay is not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I think if you stay once you will want to go back. the Breakfast is as good if not better than a five star hotel, wonderful.
It was a very comfortable stay, all the staff were so friendly and the food delicious - we didn’t have a car so restaurant options were limited (as the bus service runs every 2 hours!), but it was easy for us to eat in-house and the food was great! The bus stop is directly outside the hotel which was very convenient.
We stayed here when completing some construction works at Port Ellen, the hotel was perfect and couldn't recommend highly enough. We had an early start on the Saturday and would have missed breakfast, we were treated to a pack up to take with us so we didn't miss out, a very thoughtful touch indeed.
The Bridgend Hotel is an ideal cozy getaway destination on Islay. All the creature comforts of home, including a terrific breakfast, but also plenty of local charm. The staff, in particular, made us feel welcome and were very helpful. In particular, Ken deserves a shout-out!
Excellent central location on Islay. Really easy to find. The staff is very helpful and on premise they have everything you need. Also useful there's a bus stop just in front of the hotel.
Breakfast is Scottish style, thiugh there's also cold plates to accommodate.
Bridgend has earned a reputation for quality among visitors to Islay. The dining room was superb, serving dinner and breakfast rivaling high-end restaurants in the big cities on the mainland. The staff's hospitality and professionalism was much appreciated.
Lovely room, bed was extremely comfortable. This place felt like an upscale hotel. Breakfast was delicious. The hosts were extremely gracious, friendly and made us feel at home. If we come back to Islay we will definitely be staying here again.
Property was immaculate and like a boutique hotel. Absolutely perfect. Fabulous room. The host was friendly knowledgeable and couldn’t do enough for you. Breakfast was amazing. I would stay again and highly recommend to anyone.
Nice hotel with good food. The staff were excellent special mention to Mirka and Eithne! Great breakfast. Our room was very small with a very small bathroom but had a lovely view of the gorgeous gsrden. Good central location
The food at the Bridgend was magnificent especially the dinners. The staff was wonderful especially Meghan, Lauren, and Kenny in that they were most accommodating and helpful. I didn’t want for anything!
The hotel was beautiful, comfy room, excellent food and the staff were so helpful and friendly. The manager Ian was exceptional and couldn't do enough to make our stay a brilliant one.
The staff were amazing. Robert and Jenny couldn’t have done anymore for us. Felt very welcome from when we stepped through the door. Hotel was so quaint with amazing furnishings.
It’s a beautiful property and hotel. The rooms are spacious and clean. Dinner was excellent although it’s a set menu. the bar is intimate and well stocked.
