Not for me.

The staff were lovely. No complaints there, and my room had been recently renovated, but the bathroom drains in my ensuite were really smelly.

Also, the breakfast coffee was tasteless, and the scrambled eggs didn't taste like eggs.

Very nice staff who looked after us. Quiet apart from the seagulls. However the decor could need a revamp and some TLC. It’s an old pub but curtains etc can easily be fixed and it stays light very late and blackouts must be a certainty

The local people really made the stay here pleasant. They were welcoming, funny and gave us the lay of the land, giving us tips on what to do in the area and where to go. We enjoyed our time hanging out with the them. Also, the food at the restaurant here was delicious and there was live entertainment our first nights stay. The Fyrish Monument trail was nearby but it was quite a hike to get to no matter what the locals say. The Scottish are fit walkers, it nothing for the to hike the area in which they live but for us visitors this hike is steep and challenging if you are not someone who does this type of hike often. We did it and made it to the top which was rewarding. Overall, we made friends with quite a few people from our stay here and have already been in contact with them recently. We would stay here again just for the hospitality.

One night stay

Stayed one night as a stop over on part of our trip. Good stay. Comfy bed and clean room although a bit dated and tired. A mirror in the bedroom would have been useful but managed to stretch hairdryer into bathroom to use mirror in there. Very nice breakfast and friendly woman on front of house and serving.

Outdated and a little overpriced

Bedroom although basic was very clean. Fabulous shower and bed was very comfortable. I slept like a log. Table at breakfast was very sticky needed a really good clean with soap and hot water. Breakfast was okish. Staff very pleasant. I had phoned day before to ask if I could have early entry to my room and was promised that if housekeeping had room done when I arrived that would not be a problem. Hotel is very dated. I would say my stay was a little overpriced for a small single room.

We were stranded for 3 nights while waiting for a tyre for our rental car. We blew a tyre driving back from Skye. The roads are full of potholes and this is a common occurrence. Unfortunately for us the tyre was an unusual size and we just had to wait. The staff at the Novar Arms Hotel were wonderful. We were very lucky that there was a vacancy. We filled in the time with a bus trip to Inverness and some local walks. There's a Harry Potter film location nearby.

Disappointing stay.

Location was not quite as advertised. Not in Dingwall but in Evanton which is six miles north. Dinner menu was extremely limited though after complaint was suppled free-gratis by hotel. Hotel was well appointed and the bed was clean and comfortable but the shower was hopeless for supply of hot water.

Improvement needed , cannot recommend.

Really sorry to say the room we were in ,4, had a stale odour and the decoration was well overdue a redecoration . The very small en suite was dated and also needed redecorating.
The corridors are also looking tatty .
Service fine , bedding clean, mattresses not firm enough now.
Breakfast self service and nothing cooked available.

Well done to the staff

Staff made us feel very welcome for our two night stay. We took a breakfast and evening meal package which was excellent. When you consider what the hospitality businesses are having to cope with at this very difficult time we were so grateful that the Novar Arms are striving to maintain standards with a lower foot-fall.

Lovely overnight stay.

I was only staying one night while mapping a cycle route I’m doing later in the year, but the staff were very friendly and helpful during the time I was there. The room was all I needed for the night. The bed was comfortable the shower was good and pizza I had was really good. In the morning as I was setting off fairly early they even kindly gave me my bacon roll to take away.
