10/10 Excellent
"We were touring round north of Scotland. We stayed in five hotels. The Norsman was the best value for money. The food was good and drinks were reasonably priced. All the staff were very helpful."

Bettyhill Hotel

Bettyhill Hotel

8/10 Good
"Wonderful staff - could not have done more to help or be more friendly! There was a good selection of food but I found it overpriced for what it was - mains start at £20. It's classic type food which was cooked well but not outstanding. The room and bathroom were incredibly clean and well presented. The bed was slightly uncomfortable, though and I couldn't help but think that an investment in new mattresses would go a long way, especially for tired travellers after a long day! Otherwise, this was a wonderful hotel in a great location if you're doing the NC500."
