Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Nice location, good quality food and comfortable room. However, we were disappointed with the quality of the room given the price. The decor was tired with stains on chair and our location in the hotel was quite noisy.
Staff extremely friendly. Dinner really good with the most incredible view. Easy to walk to Dornoch which is a lovely Town and well worth a look. Sadly only here for one night as there are beautiful walks which I would have liked to explore
First location of our NC500 trip. The Royal Golf Hotel is a lovely hotel, friendly staff, beautiful location and servied a good breakfast. Would easily recommend.
It was a great place to stay weather you play golf or not. Good food and the bed was to die for. Super bar and fire place in the bar. Only tough part is carrying the bags up the stairs.
