Royal Golf Hotel

Our stay at the Royal Golf Hotel was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, the warm Highland hospitality made us feel right at home. The stunning views over the Dornoch Firth and the championship golf courses took our breath away—whether you're a golfer or just appreciate natural beauty, this place is a dream. The rooms were luxurious impeccably clean, and thoughtfully designed with comfort in mind. The shower was amazing along with Arran aromatic soap as well. The bar was a perfect place to relax after battling the golf course and we lucked out with an amazing accordion player on Saturday night playing the tunes whilst we chatted and watched the golf on tv . What truly set this hotel apart was the exceptional service Every staff member went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable—friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about Dornoch’s charm. Whether you're here for golf, relaxation, or exploring the Highlands the Royal Golf Hotel delivers on every level. We can’t wait to return! 10/10 recommend.

Lovely hotel, rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. I deducted a star as I was on the top floor and there was a note to say it took longer for the hot water to flow, having left the shower to run for 10 mins, I only got tepid water to shower in. Breakfast was lovely, though I ended up with 2 rounds of toast, 1 of which I didn't order! I felt the service didn't match the high end feel of the hotel.

Price at the restaurant was higher than online menu. Burger changed from 8oz to 6oz from online menu to on site, steak and burger overcooked. Staff was kind and helpful but the food was just bad.
