This is a hostel so don't expect a 5* hotel. The room was clean the beds were a bit "springy" also all the rooms had en-suite, this hostel doesn't have parking, it was on street breakfast was in the kitchen/diner as was a help yourself, there was a good selection.

Compact wee town centre with a big Co-op supermarket.
Compact wee town centre with a big Co-op supermarket. People seem genuinely friendly & helpful. A train & bus station, nice beach & Scrabster nearby for ferries to Orkney. Good base for exploring round about & into Sutherland too for the beautiful golden sandy beaches an hour or so away at Armadale, Bettyhill, Torrisdale & Coldbackie. Lots of Stone Age relics to explore too.
A lovely but long journey up by train. Takes about 4 hours from Inverness. Only issues were leaving Thurso by public transport to catch links from Inverness to go further south as just 4 trains a day & nothing after 4.28pm weekdays. No buses seemed to leave Thurso for Inverness after 11.50. Buses take around 3 1/2 hours to Inverness. Good to book taxis as far in advance as possible as get booked up fairly quickly.

Hotel position and friendly staff were good, but the online description of the hotel and facilities was not accurate. Very disappointing.
- room not serviced for three days
- initial room smelly and mouldy
- had to ask for soap and toilet paper
- advertised food items for breakfast not provided
- bath leaked
- no phone in room

Some of the best place to eat in UK. Outdoors is its selling point, if King Charles III has a holiday retreat nearby it must be the best in the World. Winter nights are dark and cold with limited night life.

We used Thurso as a jumping off and landing point for the Orkney islands. I wish we had more time in the Thurso area as I believe there is much more to explore. And don't miss the Sri Lankan restaurant in town!! your dinner may take awhile but that's because it is being cooked up fresh.

Thurso is a town that has seen better days, but most people are going to Thurso to visit John O Groats or to catch a ferry, rather than for the town itself. We stayed out of season so did not visit the beach. We enjoyed our walk to Dunnet Head, and spent our 2nd day visiting John O Groats and Wick. We recommend the Thurso Visitor centre / Museum (free entry, but donatiion requested)
The hotel was in a great location, ideal for the town. And a good location for exploring the area with plenty to do.
The large bedroom was very clean, smelt lovely and was really comfortable.
The food was absolutley beautiful. The mushrooms were delicious and the steak was the best I've tasted in a long time. The prices were really good as well.
The staff were all friendly and helpful.
I cannot fault the park Hotel at all.
I would highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking if going.
Loads of free parking spaces outside the hotel.
We were driving the North Coast 500 and found this wonderful modern BnB just outside Thurso. Antoinette, our hostess, was friendly and very helpful with suggestions on where to eat dinner. Views from here were beautiful and the added bonus is that they have a half dozen highland cows. Apple (a highland cow) and a recent mom to Wee Hamish was in the pasture right next to the house. We would go back here in a heartbeat
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.
Lovely cozy cottage, great host, who had coffee and gave us information on the area, locals very friendly, great place to explore and try a little sea fishing off the rocks.
I'd you want silence rainbows and comfort I would recommend this place we hope to revisit next June
Two log burning fires provide ample heat all day if you can't be bothered with the fires there is also toast radiators
Everything about the pods was brilliant, from the pod itself to the views and scenery. The owner was happy to help with any issues we had or anything we needed.
The bed was very comfortable and there was ample space in the pod for the two of us.
The pod itself was very clean and was good to have the luxury of a shower, a fridge and a microwave whilst away.
Since our last visit to the Pentland Hotel, they have completed quite a bit of refurbishments, leaving the hotel much more modern and nice. The hotel was very clean and had everything you would need in your room. We booked to travel with our dog and they had left a dog bowl and treats for her. The breakfast is very nice and consistently refreshed.
The caravan was comfortable and affordable. As we were staying in a caravan we didn't have any dealings with the reception area. We got a text when the room was ready and went straight there. The location was great, we walked down to the beach and did some investigating in rock pools.
This was a perfect little room for one. I stayed two nights here. The two nights book ended my weekend trip to Orkney Island. I was allowed to leave my big luggage at the hotel, and when I returned, I was able to check in early, and my bags were waiting for me in the room.
The room is spacious and the bed is the best for our whole trip. The location is good and enough parking places. Supermarket located just opposite to the hotel. It has restaurant on-site, this is handy when everything is closed in the neighborhood.
Friendly, thoughtful proprietor, lovely guest house in a great location. Less than a block from Victoria Walk, and a nice beach. Liz has thoughtfully left directions for a number of walks around Thurso.
And delicious black pudding!!
The location was perfect for us, as we were on our way to Orkney. The manager of the hotel went out of her way to accommodate us and make us feel welcome when we were stranded in Thurso as the ferry was cancelled due to gales.
The staff were super helpful and friendly. Beautiful room with amazing views. Service was terrific; food fresh, hot,v tasty. Loved my stay. Having stayed at other locations, will choose The Weigh Inn Hotel now, everytime!!
We had an excellent stay at the Manor House, Thurso. Leonard and Maryellen were so welcoming and helpful. They have created a lovely relaxed and friendly atmosphere in the hotel and the room we stayed in was beautiful.
