Harry, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel needs updating though. Beds were horrible and shower had no water pressure. Only positive besides the staff were the large towels.

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly and helpful staff, a clean room, comfortable bed, and good breakfast Sensibly priced, and I’ll go back
Christopher, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not too bad but there is better choice.

The hotel is quite old and in need of refurbishment. The first room I was given had very weak water pressure and the facilities felt outdated. Fortunately, Abigail at the reception was very helpful and arranged for me to move to another room, which was much better and had good water pressure. Please note that there is no lift, which might be inconvenient for some guests.

No complaints apart from rude breakfast service

No complaints about the room or check in. Hotel very quiet. Only let down by the breakfast service by a chef who seemed annoyed by having to serve and was almost comically rude

Gary, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I really like staying at The Pentland, ok it’s a bit old and draughty, it could probably do with a bit of tlc but it’s full of character and the staff are top class, super convenient for work too. If I’m staying in Thurso and they’ve got room then I’m staying there :-)
Gary, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

The Barman Duncan was quite the personality but this was the only good thing really. The breakfast was particularly bad with microwaved bacon, inedible mushrooms and hash browns and a staff member who was so unhappy I didn’t know where to look
