Find the Cheap Dingwall Hotels

22nd August 2021 On arrival at The Waverley Inn, we couldn’t get in to the car park due to it being chained, spoke to someone on the contact number and he explained why it was chained up, Rangers FC was playing locally and to keep fans and their cars out. He came close to the car and asked if we wanted in, well we have a room booked was my reply, he opened the gate and on appearance he was a scruffy man, I thought he was the odd job man, no, he was the owner, he remarked about the football, huffing and puffing and chanting on about the football, and whilst I was taking bags out of car, he asked us to more or less to hurry as he may, may have others to book in different places because he has at least another building to manage. The entrance was tatty, wood work rotten, gaffer tape on stairs, ceilings going up the stairs, paint and what looked like filler was flaky and had fallen off, the curtain rail was electrical taped up and the TV, most channels were not obtainable due to poor reception and picture became pixelated and un watchable. And then there’s the extraction fan, scabby crusty filth in the vent and on the fan in the bathroom. I was on the cusp of giving the owner what for, when switching on the TV, BBC 1 and 2, Scotland’s equivalent channels not available, cracking pixeled screen, many channels not available, however we found one or two, if no TV that evening it would have been a different story. There was a young man in the reception ironing sheets, and what looked like the dining area, well thankfully no food was available, cold, un inviting, and immediately by the reception and front entrance. The owner gave us the key to the room, he then went on to explain and make excuse’s he couldn’t get staff, hence no breakfast or evening meals, thankfully. I opened the door and at first and at a nano second the room looked clean, no, far from it, the cups were dirty, stains on the wall near radiator and on the wall where the bed heads are, the window sills filthy, inside the shower cubicle has mould and on sink, and the shower leaks, drips that much, the floor gets wet, cubicle doors need to be shut I went down stairs and I was instantly asked what’s up? I ask for extra milk as there were only 3 milk and 4 tea bags, no where near enough for two for the entire evening and morning, I asked for extra and was given 4, yep 4, he stated he didn’t have a lot of milk or tea bags and other guests may ask for extra. I was told there was a shop in a certain geographical direction with a hand signal. The young man came up to wash the cups, he looked worried and I also stated there was no spoons and there were only “4 sheets” of toilet roll, he then said he and his aunty are solely responsible for cleaning rooms in what I believe in a Polish accent and responsible for cleaning for what I believe two buildings. I did say I wont tell his boss, he then went down stair to get extra tea bags and milk, later that afternoon I went out to get some bits from

Pleasantly surprised by my stay. I was a bit worried after reading reviews but hotel was fine. I asked for a quiet room quick I got - room was warm, clean and quiet with lovely toiletries. The communal areas were looking a little tired but great value for money. Would happily return. Can’t comment on food as didn’t have breakfast and bar was unfortunately closed when I returned about 10.30 so didn’t get a drink. There didn’t seem to be a lift which might be an issue for those with mobility problems.

After reading the reviews of this place we were quite skeptical of staying at this hotel but we was actually very pleasantly surprised for the value . The bed was comfortable, continental breakfast was included in our price which was great, the little on site bar was very friendly and the location was right on the high street. It was a little dirty in the shower and we didn't have a TV remote but other then that we were happy and what more can you want for £30 a night including breakfast.

The views were delightful, but the stairs to our room were many. This was a castle, so no lift/elevator. Our room was comfortable, with thick wool rugs and heavy drapes. Twin beds as requested, but very narrow. Had dinner in the pub, which was tasty. The service was good, despite the one bartender/server was kept very busy. Breakfast was also good. Lots of parking. Worth going if you want a castle experience.

The facilities were all that we expected and needed. The food was excellent (the roast beef was cooked properly and not raw, as it is in some establishments). The staff were also excellent - very polite and helpful. They also tended to say 'You're welcome' - not the much too common 'No problem'. That was lovely to hear and made us actually feel welcome!

就沒辦法，就這麼一個酒店，超級老😂😂

I have now stayed at the Priory on 2 occasions and will be returning again. This is a family run hotel and this is reflected in the high standard of accommodation and service. The staff are courteous and professional and clearly on the ball. The restaurant is sensibly priced and serves an imaginative menu, and high quality food. You can tell the restaurant is popular as it is a busy place, patronised by non residents from the area, as well as hotel guests. There no is also a separate more informal bar with reasonably priced drinks. The hotel seems to pride itself on the standard of customer care. Thanks again for a great stay.
