    My 1 night in Thurso were quite comfortable! Private bathrooms, that included a bathtub. The entire staff was exceptional. The food was delicious and I enjoyed bacon and eggs. This hotel was located in a very central area so close to Thurso, the centre. Plus there was a lake, within 10 minutes walk or so.

    We stayed at Pentland during our trip to Thurso. Enjoyed the great food and friendly staff. Room comfort exceeded expectations, although the street noise disturbed our sleep a bit. A lovely experience for our family.

    helpful staff

    Check-in was seamless, and the carvery dinner was a real treat-plenty of food and delicious gammon. The room was cozy with a lovely garden view. The bed was super comfortable.

    The room offered a cozy and well-maintained environment. The strong Wi-Fi connection throughout the hotel was a significant advantage .

    uncomfortable seating
    uninviting dining area

    The cozy lounge area seemed like a warm hug. It was easily accessible.

    More comfortable seating in the dining area would help.
