The bathroom floor looked like it hadn't been swept in a while and the bedding didn’t seem fresh. On checking in I was informed that I had been given 'an upgrade', but I have stayed in that same room before and it wasn't an upgrade. As for the room next door, I could hear the person in the bath. The rooms must be split by a very thin partition. I asked for a receipt while paying on arrival but was informed that I would get it in the morning. However the reception wasn't opened at 0720am and when I pressed the bell, no one came. There appeared to be an A4 receipt lying behind the locked counter barrier which was unreachable so I just had to leave without it.

The room was adequate, but only just. Very cold, and the radiator in the bathroom had no control valve so it couldn’t be turns on! The cooked breakfast wasn’t actually bad, but it was all very cold … lying under a warm lightbulb really did it no favours. Nice staff, as usual, but these problems are too great to overlook.

Great breakfast with wonderful service! Dinner in a separate restaurant onsite was close to the worst food we've had in Scotland with the slowest service imaginable. Room was somewhat dirty with hair all over the bathroom (on the sink, tub, and floor). Property felt dated in a run down sort of way inside and out.

The overall stay was OK but this hotel is in dire need of a refresh. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean but very tired. The bar was also very poorly stocked. Staff were very friendly though, so not all bad.

It was quiet. It had that old hotel feel but not quite as charming as we had hoped. Felt like needed some refurbishments. However, it was quiet and we felt safe. It was fine. A really lovely Indian restaurant about two blocks away.

Quick check-in, spotless, comfortable, quiet room. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast with local ingredients. Hotel is handy for shops, bars, eateries, etc. Less than 5 minutes walk to main bus stop to/from Inverness & 5 minutes walk to train station. My go to accomodation in Thurso.

Very Disappointing Stay – Would Not Recommend The Pentland Hotel may be dog friendly, but that’s about the only positive. The carpets reeked of dog and the whole place felt old, tired, and unclean. The building is run down and gave the impression of being dirty – I couldn’t wait to leave. Food was just average, nothing special, and breakfast was “help yourself” with everything looking greasy and deep-fried. For the price, I expected much better. This hotel seriously needs investment and attention to cleanliness. Definitely not somewhere I’d stay again.
