National Hotel were fab. Hotels.com were crap
Hotels.com were supposed to have moved out stay from the Friday to the Saturday. Despite speaking to “Jefferson” to arrange this, when we arrived on Saturday, the hotel had had no communication from hotels.com! Luckily we saw Kate on reception, she booked us in to a spare twin room as our double was not available. She was brilliant. Hotels.com were not……. I would stay here again but would definitely not book through hotels.com

Handy and comfortable
A handily-located, friendly hotel with comfortable rooms and a good breakfast, with a variety of hot dishes cooked to order. Big fluffy towels and adjustable shower are nice touches. It's located in the town centre, a very short walk from the station, so useful if going on trips to Kyle or the Far North. Also handy if you’re a football fan as Ross County's ground close-by. Bar wasn't open on our visit but the same owners own the Mallard pub, at the station down the road, where hotel guests have a 10% discount off food.

Check in was unusual, having to phone as arriving after 8pm. Given key box code for access to key, was easy enough. Room small but clean and tidy. Heater in room was on which was a warm arrival but room became very stuffy and no window could be opened. Only stayed over night and didn't try the breakfast.

The staff were exceptional in providing a service. They were polite, courteous and knowledgeable. Leia was friendly and made you feel at home with her cheerfulness and bubbly nature. 3.5 stars rating is about right for this Hotel but it wouldn't take much to obtain the other half star. Location is perfect as its situated on the high st and next to the railway station.

I paid £101.85 for 1 night in the National 19th century hotel in Dingwall, Scotland. The room had a vinyl-covered floor, squeaking door hinges and no heating. The corridor floor squeaked as guests traversed it. The tap in the shower was inoperable at 11pm (room 122). So no shower then or before my early departure. Hotel manager refused a partial refund and asserted that I should have called the “night porter” at 11 pm when I discovered the problem and was standing naked in the shower recess. Very poor value, even if the shower had worked.
