Thurso stay
Located on NC500, so easy to find. Full breakfast was very good. Rooms were clean, but shower was interesting. Water just keep getting hotter and hotter. No elevator so hope you get a room on the first level.

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here
I requested a low floor since my wife uses a cane, but was put on 3rd floor. The bathroom had black mold in the tub/shower. There was no hot water in shower or in sink. The 3 of us could only do "sponge" baths. The food at breakfast was cold including the beans and eggs. Do not recommend staying here.

Disappointed
The hotel was tired, floor was not vacuumed, urine on the toilet seat. The linoleum in the bathroom was peeling, upholstery on chair was peeling off.

4/10 Fair

Must try harder
Staff are really very nice but the hotel is very sad and in poor shape, everything reeks of cheap, food is poor and restaurant is not at all managed. Room is tired and in need of a makeover, bathroom absolutely shocking and worse shower in the world. Breakfast is usually the high point for me but not here, everything from the cheapest supplier nothing was cooked correctly or had been kept warm for hours. Sorry Pentland an 80,s hotel is not for me.
