    Clean, tidy rooms with basic amenities. Enjoyed generous breakfasts to fuel up for the day ahead.

    The room could use some updates. the remote was held together with tape and the door had a noticeable gap when closed. Had issues with noise from other guests slamming doors, which wasn't ideal for a peaceful night. while the hotel had its charm, it felt a bit stuck in time.

    victorian style
    stunning views
    expansive breakfast
    unreliable connection
    poor signal

    i stayed here for one night and the quirky victorian style caught my attention, much more charming than my last visit to a different place in tain. the views of the dornoch firth from my room were stunning, and the expansive breakfast spread was a pleasant surprise. overall, it exceeded my expectations for comfort and experience.

    wifi connection wasn’t reliable.

    Great spot for golfers!

    Five of us hit up this place for a 2-night golf trip. Super nice staff, especially the evening manager, who was super helpful! Rooms were decent-sized and clean. The breakfast spread was pretty good too. Only wish there were a few more dinner options. But overall, it was a solid stay, and we're already planning another trip for some more swings!

    quirky decor
    friendly staff
    generous breakfast
    poor signal
    inconsistent offerings
    traffic noise

    I had a delightful stay at The Royal Hotel in Tain. The superior double room felt spacious and cozy with a lovely seating area and a big flat-screen TV. Complimentary toiletries and fluffy towels added a nice touch amidst the quirky Victorian decor. Breakfast options impressed me with generous choices, although the Wi-Fi connection wasn't reliable. Located perfectly for exploring Tain, it made my trips to local shops enjoyable. A nice touch was complimentary water and biscuits in the room. The staff were friendly and accommodating, providing good service despite a few hiccups with breakfast timing. the noise from traffic outside was a bit disruptive at times, and I'd appreciate a better breakfast variety next time. Still, it exceeded my expectations for comfort and experience.

    This was a delightful stop for a short visit. The charming, old-school feel of the place added to my experience. I particularly loved the fantastic breakfast with a variety that surprised me, and the spacious room had stunning views of the Dornoch Firth. It was conveniently located near the town center, making it easy to explore nearby attractions.

    nice stay with a few improvements needed

    The atmosphere was welcoming, created by friendly hosts who genuinely cared about our comfort. We loved being able to have food delivered and enjoyed it in a cozy restaurant setting. The bar had a superb selection that added to our enjoyment.

    Service could be slower during busy times.

    delicious meals
    friendly staff
    comfy rooms
    hard mattress

    Had a great time with friends! Enjoyed playing golf at Royal Dornoch Golf Club and explored nearby shops. The restaurant served delicious meals, and I was impressed by the friendly staff. The comfy rooms made it a pleasant stay, perfect for groups.

    One downside was that the mattress was hard as steel, which didn’t make for the best sleep. But overall, that was the only issue we faced.

    comfortable bed
    friendly staff

    Great for a solo traveler escaping reality

    The bed was comfortable and I found the breakfast spread something I've never seen before- great variety fresh fruits and cereals. Plus the staff were friendly and very accommodating, it.

    It wasn’t exactly inexpensive but still reasonable for what you get.

    cozy atmosphere
    huge tv

    We had a splendid time staying here! The complimentary water and biscuits were such a nice touch, and the cozy atmosphere made it feel like home. Loved that they had a huge TV in the room and the added detail of a rollaway bed for my daughter was unbelievably helpful! The location was perfect, right in the heart of town, making it easy to explore all the nearby shops and restaurants.

    limited charm

    The warm hospitality from the owners and staff made the stay enjoyable for our group of golfers. Breakfast offered a good variety and was freshly cooked, making it an excellent start to the day. The cheaper room we occupied was adequate but lacked the charm of the more expensive options. it was a comfortable stay with nice food and friendly service.

    It was just a well-suited match for a cursory stop in Tain with great value. The bar was a bit messy, but I enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Consider checking in early to avoid the evening rush.
