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.

Went up on work business to wick. Hotel look the part on the internet but how wrong can i be.
checked in had to wait for service. got the key to my room and the first thing i saw was it had no curtains. the window overlooked a pelican crossing. The TV could only pick up channel 4 and there was a sink that had no hot water.
The dinner was nice only highlight of the trip and the pints were good too. went for a walk round the town of keiss it was OK but i wouldn't go out of my way to stay there. The toilets and shower wasn't in the room so it was a mare when you sleep naked and need to use the toilet or shower when you had to share with other guests. The rooms ad hall way on the 2nd floor smelt like fish that went off. The beds were uncomfortable. if you like a holiday up there or a trip to John O'Gortes Stay in wick or thurso.

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 games kept us all happy.
Clean if a little dated but we like that!
Breakfast was great you just choose exactly what you would like from the hot food listed. Tea coffee toast/bread juice and cereal all there for you to help yourself
The owner left the bread etc out for us on the morning we left very early so we could just make our toast ourselves. One of many little things they did that make a big difference

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 shower that even I could fit into comfortably.

Breakfast was excellent and well cooked, a full Scottish breakfast and not like some of the places that I've stayed in recently. We took our evening meals in the Lounge bar and the choice was very good.

Will we be going again? Yes. There isn't a great deal to do in the area, great for walking, but if you want peace and quiet, i can recommend Keiss.
