Rebecca and her brother were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. We were lucky to be on the first floor. We met her parents the next day ( owners) who were also very friendly and hardworking. My dinner and our breakfasts were very good. Easy access to the ferry and on a quiet street with old stone houses. Thank you for a brief but enjoyable stay.

Manor House disaster
All round bad experience, I was doing a road trip around Scotland and at 8pm when I was at John O'Groats I had a call from The Manor house to tell me my room had flooded and they would put me in another room in a building down the street. The room they put me in was terrible, it was tiny had no on suite, no tea/coffee etc a hole in the wall that looked like a punch hole and defective lock on door, the shared toilet bathroom was filthy. They offered breakfast and a burger?chips as compensation. I sat in the room for 10 mins and decided it was not fit to stay the night. I phoned the Manager and was told they had suddenly got a room available so I went back and was given a room on the 2nd floor that at least had comfortable beds and on suite bathroom toilet. I agreed to stay in that room and after 90mins of stress got a reasonable nights sleep. In the morning when I woke up I noticed even this room was sub standard with stains on the ceiling and flaking plaster on walls and around windows. I went down for breakfast and asked to see the manager, I was very interested to see the supposed flooded room and I want some explanation for all the problems the night before. Reception told me the manager was making breakfast and would speak to me after I had my breakfast. After I finished breakfast I went back to reception and was told the manager had suddenly had to go to Inverness and had taken the key to the flodded room with him. I truly believe they owe me a full refund.

This hotel has a lot of beautiful history wrapped through it. It is charming, as are the people who manage it. It is in the middle of renovations, and once those are completed, I'm sure it will be lovely! I feasted on lamb curry one night there, and it was very delicious! I even recommended it to the bus driver who dropped me off there the following night. I would eat that lamb curry any night!

Room was very small with a weird and unhygienic toilet sink combination that took several flushes to work. Room was dirty as there’s building work going on and all the dust and dirt had been walked in. Communal areas were dirty as well. WiFi didn’t work, smart TV didn’t work. All in all a terrible experience.

Disappointed
House was surrounded by scaffolding due to roof repairs. Very old tired House, bed was very old and very uncomfortable. Room was not very clean with no tv service as it was waiting on a service call. Had a meal in restaurant and food was good. Never came in to tidy room, change towels etc during our 3 night stay. Owners were friendly and kind but House needs a major overhaul

Lovely family. Really good food. Beautiful views across the river. Would benefit from some investment but the priority should be to get some hotel grade bedding.

One nighter
Room was big and light but barely able to get in the shower/toilet.The room needed a lot of paintwork and was a bit shabby. The mattress was thin and uncomfortable and the second bed had not been remade and had clearly been occupied by someone else. For somewhere to stay overnight waiting for the ferry it was not horrible but would not stay more than a night. The people were polite and to judge by the scaffolding all over the house they are probably doing up the property bit by bit. Overall however I would not be rushing back.

Manor House
The staff were lovely, city parking good and lictaion to town, however everything else was below standard. Water makes on the ceiling, cables out on view, not great worth a 4 year old, toilet leaking, smell of sewage, bed were lumpy, bedding stale smelling, and sooo noisy with doors banging shut. The dining areas were so filthy that we were put off of breakfast, its really sad as it could be wonderful

We only stayed in Thurso one evening, as we were taking the ferry from Scrabster the next day. The Manor House was a good place to spend the night. It was close to Prince George's Street bus stop and the train station (easy walk to both), and is close to the town centre. We had a room for three people, and it was very spacious. The bathroom was cramped but this is an historic building and like many such hotels the ensuite bathroom was retrofitted into the room. The staff was kind enough to allow us to keep our luggage in their main hall for the day so that we could explore the town more conveniently.
