Links House at Royal Dornoch

Loved everything!!! Especially the staff…Fraser, Sophia, Mina, Danielle, chef… outstanding!Room was lovely & the bathroom was amazing…

Nothing… perfect!

Beautiful property, friendly staff, excellent service, amazing food, comfortable room. Faultless.

Our stay was ruined due to our awful experience at dinner, so not much.

Dinner. We ate in the restaurant. It was awful. We were celebrating my wife's birthday and our wedding anniversary. They stuck us in the back room away from other guests. I ordered the steak, medium rare. It came rare, grey in colour (as not seared properly) and bleeding all over the plate. I returned it and it came back still rare. They didn't bother to replace my side dishes which became cold and inedible. I gave up by this time and sent everything back as I had lost my appetite due to all the problems. The matre-de / manager never once came to our table to apologize. Then she decided to take the optional service charge off the bill and only charge me half for the full 3 course set money. I therefore ended up paying nearly 60 pounds just for a starter!! I complained again and she took another 25 pounds off the bill. A proper facility would not have charged me anything. The whole matter completely ruined our stay. Also, they are building a new golf club house in front of the hotel so views are poor.

Great location, room was excellent & had superb decor. Very comfortable all round.

Nothing to report on that front

Great staff (pip at reception lovely), lovely acc and excellent meal particularly the scallop starter (delicious).

Had to carry our bags up one flight of stairs.

Room and bed was exceptional Staff were very attentive Breakfast was delicious

No bath in room Tea and coffee facilities were in hall way outside door , which was unusual

So comfortable & because isn’t not a big place it felt very personal. Excellent service & there is some serious cooking going on there. I’ll definitely be coming back.

My room was a little hot for me but most people don’t find that in Scotland.

Amazing stay in Dornoch! Walking distance to the beach! A beautiful boutique style hotel with 5 star resort service!

Attention to details

Food average Wine overpricedNo view from ground floor suite

The service, food and rooms in the hotel were all excellent.

A bigger room as it was a bit hot in the room, and further away from the kitchen as well.

We didn’t have dinner unfortunately but breakfast was delicious! The little touches were lovely… old fashioned shot drink, fresh shortbread and chocolates.Amazing place. Thank you so much

Everything. Location, friendliness, cleanliness and food. The attention to detail was incredible. I had the best sleep ever. Beach on the door step. Cocktails and shortbread waiting in the room and rocking chairs on the veranda . Every member of staff were happy to help and offer advice about the area. A real hidden gem.

Nothing at all.

Everything here was outstanding. Food was delicious from Morning to night. Staff were outstanding could not be more attentive. Our stay was fabulous

The colour or the fishing rod, in the painting in my room.

Lovely dog friendly hotel in a very scenic setting, room was very nice.

As we had a dog with us, to experience the well renowned restaurant we had to have our evening meal in our room, which the manager almost sold us the idea to do so. We paid exactly the same prices as if we were within the restaurant but the service was terrible, large delay between courses. I did discuss this with the receptionist as we checked out the following day which I was informed that someone would be in touch to discuss, guess what ?? :-( disappointing for the large amount of money we paid.

Gorgeous hotel!! Would definitely stay again. Quiet. Clean. Incredible location. Gorgeous room. Beyond perfect (except for dim lighting in the bathroom).

Bathroom was very dark!!! Good luck seeing your face in the mirror. Makeup mirrors we're not available.

This is a fabulous hotel - we loved everything - the friendly professional staff, the beautiful interiors of the hotel and our rooms, the location right next to the Royal Dornoch Golf club and the sea. Breakfast was amazing too! Faultless.

I cannot think of a single thing!

Loved the location even though we weren’t there for the golf! Gorgeous beach nearby and the village has some excellent shops. The hotel itself was a real treat, the furnishings, decoration etc were top quality. The size of the hotel was smaller than I was expecting but we soon adjusted to it. The dinner was on the pricey side but delicious.

Surprised that there were no tea/coffee making facilities in the room. There were communal ones in the corridor but not quite the same. Also a bit disappointed that there was no view to speak of from the room.

Great location and very friendly staff. Accommodation and meals very good. Would certainly recommend it to anyone staying in Dornoch

Everything was perfect! Location, rooms, staff, food, atmosphere.

Loved everything - room, staff, location, small details to make you feel welcome, the investment in the artwork/history all round the hotel.

Nothing. Wee liked it so much we went back a day later for another overnight stay.
