    good quality breakfast
    central location
    overheated house

    Braw spot central to everything, perfect for catching the ferry. The breakfast was of good quality, and the stay was pleasant. One downside was the house was a tad overheated, but that’s minor really.

    the stay on our north coast road trip certainly was good value. the place was immaculately clean with helpful staff members. the hotel was set in a very central area very close to the pavillion on the seafront, scotland and the red pepper restaurant. it also was to ferry to orkney.

    Comfortable stay on the NC500 road trip. Immaculately clean hotel with excellent staff and handy location really close to big trucks roaring by late into the night, a restaurant to eat in the evening and southern Scotland. Tidy and silent room with a particularly nice view over town from the window.

    spacious bathroom
    hard mattress

    A cozy stay in Thurso

    The spacious bathroom featured a huge bath and shower. Karl was accommodating, preparing bacon sandwiches for us before our early ferry.

    The mattress felt quite hard, which impacted our sleep quality. Breakfast options could benefit from more variety, especially with fruits and homemade pastries.

    Needs improvement
    5.0

    The location is centrally located with easy access to local shops, and off-street parking makes it convenient for my transport. The rooms are well-appointed and comfortable, with kettles and tea facilities available, which I always appreciate after a long journey.

    The experience was marred by some drawbacks. The breakfast ordering system requires choices to be made the night before, restricting spontaneity, and the mattress in my room was quite hard, impacting sleep quality. I noticed limited options during breakfast, particularly in terms of fruit variety, and the Wi-Fi, though free, could use an upgrade for better reliability. Finally, the cash-only payment requirement felt outdated and slightly inconvenient.

    clean
    comfy room
    good breakfast
    cute hosts
    weird check-in process
    cash payment only

    The room was clean and comfy, and breakfast was good with porridge and a full english. The hosts were nice and cute and the location was perfect for exploring thurso. Easy to park my bike round back too.

    The check-in process was a bit weird since no one greeted us and the room was small with just a skylight. Paying in cash was kinda annoying.

    My room at Murray House was modern, clean, and had a lovely bathroom. The location was fantastic, right next to shops, restaurants, and a pub. Furthermore, it was just a short walk from Thurso Castle.
