One night in the Havelock

This is a great hotel. The room was comfortable and clean and spacious for a single room. The shops are just a five minute walk away and there’s a golf course not far away also. I didn’t eat in the restaurant so I can’t comment on the food but I will definitely be staying here again.

We thought it was quite expensive as the room we stayed in was very dated. We also thought breakfast could have been included for the price of the room.

Convenient and charming location in Nairn

This was a pleasant surprise on my last night in the UK. I'd had no luck finding a place in Inverness near the airport and settled here instead. The single room was plenty big for me, the ensuite was a nice touch, and the pub downstairs had surprisingly good food when I was too tired to go back out. The location is great, 15 minutes on a straight shot to the airport, and walkable to the beach. The staff at the bar were all friendly and helpful, and walked me through using the car park, wifi, and leaving my key when I left the next morning. Really enjoyed my stay here.

Very nice place for the price. Note the rooms are over a bar that had live music til midnight (stayed Friday and Saturday night). It was too loud but if you are a light sleeper it may be an issue. Really enjoyed the stay in this beautiful town

From the first moment to the last the staff at The Havelock were friendly, charming and very helpful. The hotel has a charming feel to it, the restaurant serves gorgous food and the atmosphere is great. I will definately stay here again if I'm up that neck of the woods. The staff were superb, they make this place.
