The only reason I stayed was because it was cheaper than a hotel in Orkney and would make a very long day after the four hour train from Inverness. However I was completely wowed by the room. It was very comfortable and modern and a good way to relax for one night after the long train and next day ferry. Very good buffet breakfast. Only suggestion would to arrange onwards transfer for guests to the ferry port the next morning which was about a 30 min walk. Walking distance from Thurso station and can easily explore all the sights in town such as the church ruins. Breakfast starts from 630am so you have time to get to the first morning ferry at 8.15am check in. This was actually much nicer then where I stayed in Stromness Orkney. This was exactly what I needed for a nights rest before onwards travel.
Excellent hotel with great food and staff! We stayed for 1 night whilst touring the NC500 on a motorbike and so glad we chose this place. Staff were very welcoming and efficient. Our room was comfortable, clean and had plenty of space for all our kit, the carpark even had a dedicated motorbike parking area. After dinner we made use of the small study/lounge area to relax with a drink. Very comfortable area which had plenty of books, board games and leaflets of the surrounding area to have a look through. Had a great nights rest and breakfast was superb, buffet style with plenty of choice. Highly recommended for all types of guests.
