A nice old style b&b on the Main Street of Wick. The host was most welcoming & she could not do enough for us. The premises have quite steep steps that could be a challenge with luggage, & are let down by the street which the council should do some work in to fix up. A nice pub across the river for dinner too

We stayed at the Bank Guest House for one night on our road trip of Scotland. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice the property was and how large the bedroom was. The owner was extremely friendly and cooked a lovely breakfast for us in the morning!
Wick itself is a little run down with not much to do, but for a one night stop off I would thoroughly recommend staying at this B&B.

Had an issue gaining access as even the owner was locked out at the time we arrived. Was one of those situations where you just need to roll with it. The owner was incredibly apologetic and provided a free bottle of wine as an apology which I found a lovely gesture.

The location itself is on a main road, but this is relatively quiet overnight and there is free parking at the rear of the building.

The property is split over several levels with lots of stairs so may be an issue for anyone with mobility issues and it is slightly tried looking in parts. It is clean enough, comfy enough and the breakfast was ok. Overall my opinion is that it's one of these places where there are no major issues which would make me want to stay somewhere else, yet at the same time there is nothing that stands out so much that I'd want to rush back.

Decent

No one was present at check in and no instructions were left, but a quick phone call cleared that up and they let us know where the keys were at what room was ours. Clean room but a very uncomfortable bed and not great water pressure in the shower. Nice and clean though, and all COVID-19 measures being followed. Old building so the door shook all night (or a ghost was trying to get in). Breakfast was a bit disappointing - instant coffee, and continental breakfast with cereal, instant porridge, toast and yogurt.

If there is something we must highlight that'd be the very good breakfast. This central guest house has a suited dinning room, on 1st floor, where to take breakfast and connect to wifi. Unfortunately the wifi doesn't reach the room with good quality (rooms on top floor). The room has fair size and great shower. Double bed size and mattress weren't comfy though.

Not a good experience in Wick

We booked because it offered a cooked breakfast. We thought it was overpriced but settled for it. However we were informed on arrival that it was a self service continental breakfast with no staff present. When I showed them the Hotels.com email which contained the above mentioned cooked breakfast this seemed to aggravate then enraged them, the husband especially who became very loud and belligerent.
We left very upset and aggrieved. They claimed they had not offered this service for over a year and accepted no responsibility for it.
A terrible time.
