Top Dornoch Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Seabank House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a find saw this online and thought the bedroom looked lovely, the whole place was stunning so comfy and tasteful, I can’t wait to go back . Owners so helpful and friendly. Check it out you won’t be disappointed x"

The Highland Hotel by Compass Hospitality

8/10 Good

"All facilities clean and well maintained, though signs of age and wear and tear are starting to show. Really convenient for access to Inverness and Dingwall. Breakfast is a bit unimaginative. Standard 3* hotel stuff with no fruit salad or porage. Otherwise, reasonable price and cheerful, helpful staff."

Invernairne Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The evening receptionist was exceptional! The whole premesis was quiet and comfortble. The breakfast was excellent. There is a short walk from the guesthouse to the beach and then a long walkway. The gardens are fabulous - I wished I was staying longer!"

Royal Marine Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Warm & friendly welcome made our check in a great start to a lovely stay. The room, although at the rear of the property with no views, was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was a bonus as we didn’t expect it to be included and it was quite delicious. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel to everyone."

Courtyard by Marriott Inverness Airport

8/10 Good

"Upgrade the Tv. It’s 2026 and everyone wants access to Netflix/prime /youtube ect"

Royal Golf Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel rooms are very small and desperately need to be updated. The staff was wonderful. The bar service is slow but room is charming."

Mansfield Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a convenient, yet quiet, place to spend a couple of nights relatively close (for an American) to Inverness. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and had great views. If visiting in warm weather, no A/C might be an issue for you, but the windows open and we were comfortable in September. On-site breakfast and restaurant were very handy and tasty. Easy parking. If it had a lift/elevator, it would be perfect."

Novar Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was prompt. Premises was clean throughout. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Nice bar area. Good quiet location."

Dornoch Station

10/10 Excellent

"Pleasant older hotel, well maintained. Beautiful views and very close to the Royal Dornach golf course"
