Dornoch Hotel

Good Service. Clean although worn/dated. Local to amenities. Myy husband didn't enjoy the food.

Amazing friendly staff doing their best to accommodate us.

Wonderful old hotel. Location is great - very quiet yet walking distance to town, walking trails, and golf. The view of the Royal Dornoch course and the sea was fantastic. We did not eat in the restaurant, but bar menu was quite good. We really enjoyed the public spaces - room to socialize or find a quiet nook to read. Very comfortable standard room and wonderful shower/bathroom. Staff was helpful.

This place is beautiful. Very close to restaurants and shopping. The golf course is right there. A great breakfast was offered. Our room was plenty big and the staff was very friendly during our stay. They have a lovely front porch you can sit on and a great lobby area.

If not for the location to the golf course we would probably not choose this hotel . The room was small and not particularly clean ( dusty). Wine glasses were not clean . Room was extremely hot with no way to regulate temperature. Bathroom was tiny . No adequate storage space in room . Room was not serviced by housekeeping until late afternoon. Automatic service charge added to already exuberant prices (£9 for a pint ). Evening meal served in bar arrived luke warm . Breakfast was good with lots of choice . Snooker table in the bar area is a bonus if you like that sort of thing but other than that you are better off staying across the road at the Royal Golf Hotel.

Disappointing stay impressive first impression but let down by poor dining and service especially at breakfast where we waited a long time to be served and then not getting much attention to detail and watching other guest arriving at their table after us but getting served before us very poor waiter service definitely not silver service standard

We were really excited about staying at the Dornoch station and sadly it didn’t live up to our expectations. We were on the second floor at the end of a corridor which had the most unappealing smell. Housekeeping was based beside the room so not sure if this was the reason. The windows and fire door were kept open which we assumed was to alleviate the smell. The room was a great size although too dark for my liking, also lacking was an area to style hair. I assumed due to the recent refurb that I wouldn’t have to negotiate a step in bath to access the shower, however accept I should have requested a walk in shower. Breakfast on day one was disappointing due to having to chase staff to provide orange juice, glasses, bowls. It also took 30 minutes to provide the tea and coffee we ordered on arrival. Day 2 was much better and on both days the staff were very pleasant. Lastly being charged £16.50 for a glass of wine was a bit excessive in my opinion. Checkout was a long process due to one person being on duty which was quite frustrating as was evidenced by other guests complaining.

The hotel has been refurbished to a high standard. Bedrooms are beautiful. Lovely Floris products in the stunning bathroom. The whole hotel is so welcoming and stylish. Great bar with huge snooker table. Fabulous breakfast too.

Absolutely stunning hotel with wonderful views. The staff are so welcoming and all have a smile on their faces. Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are beautifully decorated with very opulent furnishings. The lobby is a great place to sit and enjoy drinks or outside on the large balcony which has really comfortable seats. The bar is stunning and the choice of drinks is outstanding. The food was just the absolute best, truly wonderful. Highly recommend this gem of a place.
