Summary: The Murray Arms is an excellent place to stay ,two minutes from the Pentland Ferry terminal. It is spotlessly clean with a nice bar and restaurant. The staff couldn't be more friendly and welcoming. The breakfast and evening meals are excellent, would definitely return.

Summary: So pleased to find Murray Arms. It was 5 minutes from our arriving ferry. Upon checkin by Suzanne, we were assigned private off-road parking. Our room for 3 nights was comfortable. The staff was exceptionally warm and welcoming for all - babies, dogs, and patrons. The meals in their restaurant were first class. They have dive boats for scallop harvesting. Our scallop dinner was the best EVER!

Summary: Pros: The Murray Arms is ideally placed for the ferry terminal. Very convenient and easy to find. Rooms were clean. Restaurant was good for dinner. Cons: the walls are very thin and can hear neighbours easily.

Summary: We stayed with them overnight and the accommodation was great, as was the breakfast. We also had dinner here as it had great reviews for seafood. Sadly we were left quite disappointed as none of the food impressed and the sea bass was particularly bad. Our waitress was great, but there was some commotion behind the bar with the younger staff and you could tell that there was some conflict, just enough to make everyone uncomfortable without anything actually happening. I'm all for the younger generation to get work experience, but they still need to be professional. We also had drinks in their pub and although everything was fine, it somehow had the feeling of walking into a local old man's pub where everyone knows eachother and looks at you suspiciously. Nothing happened but again, there was just something off about the atmosphere. Overall I'd definitely recommend staying here, but not too sure about eating / drinking here.

Summary: Verry good restaurant. Room and bath are clean. Good, comfortable bed. Suppose, I've got a single room as the bed would have been to small for two adults.
