I had an excellent meal at the restaurant in the hotel. The room was on the small side but absolutely fine for a solo person. The staff members were all helpful and friendly.

I love Thurso, I have visited regular over the last 55 years.I initially visited as a child with my parents to then visit as a young adult. I continued visiting with my own children visiting the local with visiting my family who live in Thurso and have lots of happy memories. Lots to do and see, locals are friendly and the prices are reasonable for meals, bar lunches, coffee and cake.

We had a car so it was easy to get to the places we wanted to go. Thurso is a lovely town and has everything you need and is a good base to go and see other things too provided you have your own transport.

Thurso has the most wonderful museum, which is most definitely worth making time to visit. Its obviously had some decent funding and is extremely informative and well laid out. There are some fascinating Pictish exhibits and a really interesting historical film about the region throughout the past 2000 years. It really is one of the best museums I have ever visited.
There are a small number of free parking spaces out front.

People friendly and everybody relaxed it seemed.
People friendly and everybody relaxed it seemed. Quiet and peaceful if windswept and a bit bleak in bad weather. Very interesting history and sites to visit. Excellent museum with fascinating display in Dounreay vuvlear power station and standing stones. Also the ruined St. Peter’s Kirk a must see and be sure to meet Maureen the guide who will tell you all about it. All the shops you could need for supplies with Tesco and Coop close to centre. Restaurants and take always plentiful. I don’t drink so can’t comment on pubs but there are ample. Town clean - no litter, dog crap or graffiti. Handy for Orkney ferry. Loved it. Mikhail

Thurso is almost a necessary stop when doing the NC500.
Thurso is almost a necessary stop when doing the NC500. It was very quiet and in my opinion tired and run down. We ate at the "Y not" and if asked - I would say Y not go somewhere else. The food was bland and looked like it been under the heat lamp for ages. The waitress forgot my starter so that didn't happen and the steak was straight out of the freezer, over cooked and tasteless. This doesn't mean on another night they could get it right. It seamed busy but the restaurant choices arnt vast which might explain why. Our friends stayed at the Weigh inn and were happy with their stay. We didnt see much of the town other than stopping in Invictus for a drink on the high st where the staff there were almost friendly - we are English after all. A warm welcome wasn't on a plate for a lot of our journey. The hotel Invictus was attached to looked nice but again not a lot of choice and this was full when we looked in May although I didnt see a guest arrive or leave.
Lovely clean hotel. The room was lovely, just been updated . Great value for the money . Great breakfast choice . Staff are really friendly and helpful. The hotel is just in the process of being renovated ,so it is still a work in progress. We really enjoyed our stay and slept really well. It was well worth the visit.
The chip shop is well worth a visit. We come from Scarborough, the home of fish and chips ,I must say these are some of the best fish and chips we have tasted .
Country house set in grounds with nearby river, falls and associated walks. A cut above most hotels in the this area, with good size rooms decorated in traditional style with modern facilities. Food matches the hotel, with a la carte and tasting menus. Excellent selection of whisky in the bar. Notably good service from a young team. Ideal location for Scrabster ferry (10mins) or exploring the very north of the mainland.
Room was very clean and tidy. Staff were very friendly and tentative. Food was very good and value for money. The hotel exceeded our expectations in many ways and was the best value for money in our week long journey. We shall return.
Our hostess, who was a delight to speak to about the area, Scotland in general and Top Gun!
Breakfast was delicious. Filtered coffee also. Bed very comfy.
Five minute drive to the Wolfburn Distillery.
The hotel is well located near the centre of Thurso; it's just a short walk both to the centre as to the trainstation. We had a nice room with good beds. We enjoyed the dinner in the hotel.
