The Waverley Inn (Dingwall). Please, please do not stay here. Bathroom ceiling black with mould not some, but all of it. Previous guest beard trimings in sink, shower and floor. What I hope was crusty toothpaste stuck to sink. Rusty fittings and to top it all off....bed bugs. I have recorded proof and taken numerous photos which will be sent to the owners and probably environmental health. Paid extra for breakfast. Didn't get the offer so cereal it was. Absolutely shocking. I'm raging. My daughter was distraught regarding the bugs. How this place is allowed to operate is beyond me. Stay away. ##### Glenn Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michelle 25 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Very friendly staff.

Room lovely & quiet. Breakfast basic but good. Will definitely book again. ##### Donna Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Magnus 29 May 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities I mean its a budget hotel and was comfortable enough but very basic, I wasn't expecting or needing much so in that respectwas fine.. but loud banging music from downstairs bar kept me awake till after 1am .. unacceptable.. ##### Magnus Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Chipo 7 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice and quiet everyone was very friendly.and helpful. ##### Chipo Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### edward 27 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very friendly ##### edward Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Colin 5 May 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The room hadn't been cleaned, excrement in toilet. Windows were painted shut. No staff there to check in, no tea or coffee in the room had to walk to Waverley inn to get room key. After complaining, we were moved to the Waverley inn. The room there was acceptable! Dont book this hotel. ##### Colin Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Andrew 12 Jun 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Room in poor condition. Complete lack of building security. Door to room had clearly been kicked in by previous occupant. Room unfinished. Rubbish skylight blind. Electric shower with poor water pressure and ineffective controls. No breakfast to speak of, despite promise of ‘continental’. Cheap as chips but price reflects quality of stay. Would avoid if I were you! ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 6 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Hogmanay accommodation Hotel staff was very helpful and very accommodating, we arrived very late and we picked up a meal from outside, the staff arranged a seating in the breakfast bar for us right away, very helpful this was. The room was very clean and also the beds spotless. At the time of visit, NewYear an eve we got the hotel for £62 for a family room, every where else was several hundreds. With this in mind you get what you pay for but we got a family run business that I would recommend no problem. Thank you staff at the Royal hotel ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Corey 11 May 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Hotel is in the process of being renovated. Our room was good; bathroom and shower were newly renovated. The only complaint is that it needs some exterior signage so people know where it is and some signs for where to go to check in. ##### Corey Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William 12 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### VFM Comfortable and clean ##### William Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pratap 29 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities No hot water 🚿.

But we didn't get what we booked as the receptionist told there was no family room left but in websites it was showing available. Since it was night we couldn't book any other hotel and we were left with no option other than go on with just a double bedroom ensuite. Whole night we couldn't sleep properly as we were 3 people in one bed. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 20 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### No hot water on 2nd floor shower Everything was nice about the property BUT there was no hot water in the showers in 2nd floor !!, and no one at the reception to assist in the morning. Had to take a cold water shower on a cold autumn morning. One does not expect this from a registered hotel in Scotland ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 4 Jul 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay elsewhere Once you make a booking you get an email telling you to go to another address, no signage and had to call multiple times to find out where to go. Room had a bad smell and no hot water. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Bryan 14 Jul 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Poor facilities, filthy rooms, shabby all round, dirty linen, stained walls and furniture, thich with dust and wobwebs, unhoovered carpets, a total shambles and a disgrace. ##### Bryan Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Max 14 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness #### Simple no frills guest house. This is a simple very budget conscious travelers guesthouse - no frills so don't expect any. Room was clean but table lamp had no bulb and shared bathroom. No heating in room so stay clear of Apartments in Winter. But it is relatively low cost at £75. Breakfast is tea/ coffee, cereal and toast. Hard to find as there no sign at street level ##### Max Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kelly 29 Sept 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I truly want to attach all of the photos I took of this downright scary and filthy property. I can’t imagine how old the photos are that you have been provided or if they were even truly that property. I recommend removing them from your site altogether. Please feel free to reach out for more information. ##### Kelly ### 4/10 Poor #### Leigh 18 Sept 2024 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Difficult to find the entrance as I couldn’t see any signs as it happens it’s the entrance to the snooker hall you need to take. Building is like a maze inside with room numbers printed in a4 paper with pen. When I got to the room there was a number of chocolate bar wrappers under the bed and a coffee sachet had been opened and discarded next to the kettle by previous occupant. Empty tablet packets in the wardrobe and no blinds in the bathroom. ##### Leigh Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Daniel 14 Jul 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Avoid it For one the hotel is not even at the address that’s listed too. You have to go to another hotel to check in and then walk up the street to a building that is you know probably under construction on the bottom floors. The room I got said it had a TV well yes there was a TV in there, but it was not plugged into anything. It did not work when I plugged it into the power it had no signal the shower had no hot water. You cannot open the window at all. It was painted shut and I was sweating in the room because there’s no AC, but if there’s no AC, you gotta be able to at least crack the window, which I could not. There was a spider on the windowsill indicating no one had been in this room for months. There wasn’t even a lightbulb in the lamp next to the bed. All of this was hugely different from what the description on the page was it was anything but royal I tried to be nice and ask for a partial refund instead of a full refund but now that they’ve denied me, I will just call my bank and I will leave the review of how it truly went. No WiFi either.

Once I did, I had to find somewhere to park as was difficult to identify where the entrance was! The three shops underneath were closed down and the actual entrance looked to be for a snooker club (also closed). There was no one on reception, saw a cleaner & she told to me to ring a number. Once I spoke to him, I had to go to the ‘other’ Waverley Lodge to get the key and this is where the parking was and breakfast. Upon entering the small room, I was greeted by a squashed blue-bottle on the window. A few bits of rubbish on the floor as well as hairs in the sink and a questionable stain on the pillow. No hot water in shower! No one around to mention these issues to. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4D8735E9E20921FA032BB253FF6F8723142598FC1716355007631.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3501954C8B72F08C70541FEE9C26C4ECD8F1861E1716355059163.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/159B5F77BDDA93180B7B23449ABFB2923CA369FD1716355110463.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FCA7630559213C7ED6FD9DB63FD30902102D6CF01716355142365.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Skye 15 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities The rooms are comfortable and you can tell there have been recent upgrades to the rooms with the furnishings and decor. There are a few areas that you can tell the hotel is working toward fixing like the windows (which don't open easily) and the shower temperature (which was a bit on the cool side) but we found the beds comfortable and the accommodation quite adequate, especially for the price. The staff are very helpful and there is a number to access a person even when reception is closed. The location is a little challenging to find but if you find the location of the Waverley Hotel, beside the church, then you just need to go to the nearest busy corner and the Royal Guesthouse is on that corner. We found it easier to park on the street by the church but there is a parking lot. To identify the hotel, look for the billiards hall sign on the building, as the name is not visible but everyone local knows where the "Royal Hotel" is. The reception is on the second floor, but there is not elevators. I hope that they are able to revive this hotel back to its former grandeur as the city is quite a pleasant one to visit and very walkable with many interesting finds if you venture between the buildings and lots of good shops and character. ##### Skye Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert 21 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The rooms have been renovated. They were clean, tidy and simple. Both rooms were unable to get hot water for showers. The sink had hot water. This we could not figure out. Be sure to bring your personal soap and shampoo. The two staff were friendly and helpful. This loacaton worked fine for our quick stay in Dinwall. ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Dunblane Hydro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunblane-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Dunblane-Hydro.h520461.Hotel-Information) > > [Claymore Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-CLAYMORE-HOTEL.h57956439.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine Troon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Troon-Hotels-The-Marine-Hotel.h554927.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont St Andrews](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Andrews-Hotels-Fairmont-St-Andrews.h663479.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunkeld House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunkeld-Hotels-Dunkeld-House-Hotel.h520427.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex City Quay Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Apex-City-Quay-Hotel-Spa.h897382.Hotel-Information) > > [Adamton Country House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prestwick-Hotels-Adamton-Country-House-Hotel.h3277768.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Dundee City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Dundee-City-Center.h15438290.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Loch Long Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Loch-Long-Hotel.h16270964.Hotel-Information) > > [Fonab Castle Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-Fonab-Castle-Hotel-Spa.h5991409.Hotel-Information) > > [The Victoria Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkcaldy-Hotels-The-Victoria-Hotel.h4482159.Hotel-Information) > > [The George Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Inveraray-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h24458716.Hotel-Information) > > [Inglewood House and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alloa-Hotels-Inglewood-House-And-Spa.h12709295.Hotel-Information) > > [The Caledonian Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Caledonian-Hotel.h13407571.Hotel-Information) > > [Glynhill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Renfrew-Hotels-Glynhill-Hotel.h868692.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [Moness Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberfeldy-Hotels-Moness-Resort.h2955414.Hotel-Information) > > [The Great Western Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oban-Hotels-The-Great-Western-Hotel.h13407325.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pitlochry Hydro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pitlochry-Hotels-The-Pitlochry-Hydro-Hotel.h1854094.Hotel-Information) > > [Dakota Eurocentral](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Motherwell-Hotels-Dakota-Eurocentral.h1516635.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melrose-Hotels-The-Waverley-Castle-Hotel.h13431010.Hotel-Information) > > [Cameron House on Loch Lomond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexandria-Hotels-Cameron-House-On-Loch-Lomond.h980306.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Duchally Country Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auchterarder-Hotels-CLC-Duchally-Country-Estate-Hotel-Resort.h79023.Hotel-Information) > > [Riverside Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Irvine-Hotels-Riverside-Lodge-Hotel.h8519.Hotel-Information) > > [Arrochar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels-Arrochar-Hotel.h1423391.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Glasgow Strathclyde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bellshill-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Glasgow-Strathclyde.h520473.Hotel-Information)
