Top Dornoch Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Dornoch Station

8/10 Good

"Beautiful main floor bar and seating areas. Beautiful staircases. Comfortable room and beds. Nice location. Staff was uninterested."

Tuckers Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful food and wonderful room, great location, lovely little coastal town and got to see one of the large cruise ships head out of the estuary"

Waverley Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Took almost 30 min of waiting to be checked in even though we were there well before their check in cut off time. Staff nowhere to be found. No signs showing reception area etc. Went up and down the building stairs shouting "hello" "hello". Finally someone showed up. Not worth what we paid at all."

Royal Golf Hotel

8/10 Good

"The menu in the restaurant was not to our taste"

Royal Marine Hotel

8/10 Good

"A very comfortable Highland Hotel. The room was very well appointed and comfortable. A nice touch was the tea and coffee in the room with delicious shortbread! Good bar ( with resident cat, Seymour) and spacious restaurant."

Novar Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"Old fashioned, cosy pub with rooms. Staff were super, good range of food and drinks. Lively atmosphere. We were in a twin room which was very small although it had a shower room and toilet, cupboard and shelves and coat hooks. Good for a night or two but not a long stay. I liked the hotel but it was expensive."

Kincraig Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Front of house Vijay could not have been more helpful. We asked to upgrade room and was moved immediately. Room 17 was spacious with views over the garden. The lounge’s atmospheric- antiques and cabinets full of whiskey bottles. Set price dinner £34 for two courses was excellent. Good delicious and well worth a visit. Same for cooked breakfast. Top notch"

Shore Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous room, super cosy and bed was really comfy! We arrived much later than expected and staff were so kind in staying up to check us in. Breakfast was outstanding. Will definitely be back, thankyou!"

Golf View Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Lift was not working but hotel did advise us ahead of stay which was nice, in case we wanted to switch. No A/C in hotel room, so it was a bit too warm and hard to sleep, even with a small fan. Otherwise, staff, hotel, room and grounds were lovely."
