This is a lovely, friendly hotel/Inn located in a quiet, rural area in the village of Keiss on the main road just 9 miles from John O'Groats. The hotel is ideally located on the A99 within easy driving distance from all the major attractions and towns of this far north location. Wick is only about 6 miles, John O'Groats about... More

Clean, basic, friendly, remote. Rooms and water a little cold at first. Breakfast is great so long as you don't expect fruit and different types of milk. Bar food nice. Good beer. More

The staff were great as were all the locals we met. The children were treated like the little people they are. The rooms actually had proper mugs in not those silly little teacups. The family room was the best we have stayed in. A seperate room for the boys but still behind our door. Darts pool and lots of board... More

As we had not been to Keiss, nor to Caithness before, we didn't know what to expect. As soon as we went into the hotel we were made very welcome and shown to our room, which was spacious to say the least. Windows on two sides, one to the east and one to the south. On-suite shower room with a... More

Stayed one night on way to Orkney as ferry not running due to inclement weather. Staff very friendly and accommodating however second floor where our room located had an awful smell. Intolerable really, attempts by hotel to cover up with various fresheners proved of no benefit!!! More

Keiss is a small harbour village and sometimes depending on which way the wind blows there is a waft from the harbour and as the bedroom windows are open in the mornings during cleaning occasionly we do get a whiff .We are sorry if you found it so awful. More

The room was a nice size and with good amienities, I didnt eat evening meal at the hotel so I cant comment. Was a little bit dissapointed that I was promised that... More
