Food was really good.

Its a bit dated and could do with a good clean.

Great location - convenient for the ferry. We had parking across the street. Several restaurants were nearby to walk to - the onsite restaurant was closed when I stayed.

No elevator

It was warm and comfortable

Bathroom in bad need of upgrade .Smells damp . Toilet seat was like a public toilet. No lid either . TV was on top of a cupboard at a precarious angle so full screen was obscured .

"Good choice for Thurso"

8.0

The hotel was perfectly adequate, clean, quiet, comfortable room and very easy to check in and out. Minimal staff, but that wasn't a problem. Street parking was good. Straightforward route to the ferry to Orkney.

The window was frosted so you couldn't actually see outside. Not all lights were working. You need to make a reservation if you want to eat in the restaurant. Thurso itself is a bit dismal with very limited dining options.
