Melvich Hotel

Firstly, amazing views in a beautiful location. On arrival the host was friendly and showed us to our room. The room itself was a good size and clean however the divan sheet (skirt) was absolutely filthy. Dinner was superb (extra) and highly recommended. Breakfast was good overall with good ingredients but no Orange Juice which was odd. All in all we felt it was good but could be a lot better as the place felt a little run down and drab. Also found it odd that the dining room windows were cluttered with dusty large ornaments that obscured the wonderful view. The bar was also the same clutter.

Had originally booked for road trip in 2020 & impressed with cancellation & refund decided to rebook. Great Dog friendly hotel & good location, near the main road but quiet. We were lucky to get a room with a sea view. I've stayed in many hotels of all grades over the years but never have I stayed in one before where there is absolutely nowhere to hang your clothes, not even a hook on the back of the door. We were lucky to be there in sunny weather but imagine if you were experiencing typical damp Scottish weather. Also no mirror at all in the bedroom only the bathroom. The bathroom was small with a cubicle and shower curtain. I imagine this is an oversight but as we stayed 2 nights hanging space would have been good. The locally sourced food & drink was good & a nice breakfast.

We stayed here for one night on our NC500 trip. It was a warm and welcoming check in from a friendly Scottish chap. The rooms were nice and of a decent size, there was a firm memory foam bed which suited me, I had a great sleep. The extractor fan made a screeching noise when first turned on but went quiet after a little while. We stayed for dinner and I had the wood fired pizza which was tasty. The breakfast was pleasant enough, I opted for porridge as was sick of fry ups by this point in the trip. It was made with milk/cream but didn’t come out with any fruit or toppings so the only options were sugar or honey which was slightly disappointing but it was ok. The fry up looked nice though. Overall it was good and I would stay here again.

First thing to say is don’t judge a book by its cover . Having had a most disappointing stay elsewhere the previous night my heart sank a bit as I pulled up . The parking is at the rear of the hotel which lacks curb appeal . However once inside a warm welcome awaits . I was given a tour showing me where the residents lounge , dining room , gardens were before going to my room . My room was large , freshly decorated and spotless . If I was being picky the curtains don’t close easily & the shower pressure was low however perfectly adequate . But I was perfectly happy here , it was very quiet & I had a good nights sleep . The restaurant is a very good size so not over crowded , it is bright & overlooks the beautiful bay. The menu was modest in size but I’d rather a be offered a small well thought out offering that is well executed than a promise of cuisines from all over the globe that they don’t have a hope in hells chance of landing well . The home made pizzas were very popular , there are some pizzas suggested but also the opportunity to build your own . They were very good & all diners looked to be pleased with their food. Breakfast was either cooked ( vegetarian or Scottish ) or porridge , toast cereal were also available - you are requested to pre order the evening before .There is a residents lounge where you can sit & read / play puzzles etc which was nice as I don’t always just want to sit in my room. If I had been travelling with my other half I would have liked a bar to have a pre or post dinner drink so if there is a space that could be converted that would be a great addition & another revenue stream. This is a really nice place to stay , friendly and great value & I would have no hesitation in recommending .

Excellent hotel, perfect view from the dinnng room on Melvich beach room, very comfortable and well decorated room,good food And most of all very lovely people More than recommanded! We had a perfect stay, the only problem is it was too short !

De kamer was heel klein, geen stoelen, geen tafel, geen kast, nauwelijks ruimte om je koffer op de grond te leggen. Uitzicht op de doorgaande weg. Het ontbijt was ronduit slecht. Het hotel ziet er op de plaatjes mooi uit en de tuin is prachtig, het uitzicht vanuit de tuin ook. Maar dan moet je el een van de weinige kamers hebben die dat uitzicht biedt.
