Perfection!
Pros:

The room was truly exceptional with a window seat overlooking the sea. It was very stylishly furnished and the rolltop bath and TV were superb. The staff had asked if it was a special occasion and on arrival to celebrate our anniversary, there was a chocolate message and treats. The cuisine was also good and teh staff impeccable.

Cons:

A little more fruit for breakfast. I felt a bit guilty taking a generous helping as I did not want to deprive other guests. Other than that, pretty much perfect. The staff had even taken trouble to advise the lift was out of orderr before arrival in case we wanted to change our plans.

A superbly refreshing stay.
Pros:

My wife and I had a night away for our anniversary and we were very happy with the hotel. The staff perfectly accommodated a couple of requests I made and were always helpful. The Spa was a great place to relax and we thought the food was excellent.

Golf trip to Nairn
Pros:

Very handy for the golf course. Aging property which is well maintained. My room was well appointed with a complimentary mini bar and a beautifully upgraded ensuite. Dining room service was good and the food of a consistently high standard

Amazing Spa Experience!
Pros:

WOW! What an amazing day our group of four (three woman/one man) had at The Coast Spa. We chose the Drift Away Massage and one person the Stress Not Massage. We upgraded with the Thermal Experience for £30 per person for 2 hours as an add on to Coast Spa packages. The changing rooms are small, so pack lightly, but well appointed. The facilities were great with use of the stone bath, pool, hot tubs and salt room. The massage therapists were all just amazing. Huge shout out to Shirley, Sarah and Tara (so very sorry we missed the name of the 4th), as this was probably the best massage that I personally have experienced. We didn't stay at the hotel, but drove from our Airbnb in Inverness, for a day of pampering and it didn't disappoint! Highly recommend booking well in advance!

Relaxing stay at the golf view hotel Nairn
Pros:

The golf view hotel in Nairn provides a relaxing experience due to its location on the beach front. The views of the sea are stunning!
The room had a sea view was able to sit on bed and look out at the sea and beach ! Room very charming and spacious. Beds very comfortable. Fan was provided as no air conditioning and very warm in the summer despite being able to open window in our room. Spa amenities absolutely fantastic enjoyed the outdoor hot tub ! We dined at the restaurant in the hotel with a window seat overlooking the views. We had the hickory burger which was delicious no faults. Service was good. Breakfast was also excellent ordered French toast with bacon very tasty and impressed.

Cons:

The lift was out of order very steep climb to top floor especially annoying if you are ordering drinks from the bar to take to room on top floor.
No fridge in room would be handy.
Room service very disappointing as tried several times to phone to request room service but got not answer each time !

L ascenseur ne fonctionnait pas.

Mémorable.
Pros:

J'ai beaucoup aimé la manière dont la chambre avait été préparé lors de notre arrivée. La salle de bain est somptueuse et que ne parle même pas de cette vue spectaculaire qu'offre l'hôtel sur les très belles falaises au loin. La plage juste devant l'hôtel est un incontournable, surtout au moment du coucher de soleil...

Cons:

Le seul petit bémol concernant l'hôtel serait peut être ma surprise lorsque, voulant aller à la piscine avec mon compagnon, nous n'avons pas trouvé de chaussons. Après avoir demandé à la réception, c'était soit 2 £ soit y aller en chaussettes. Un peu dommage.

Un très bel hôtel dans un très bel endroit
Pros:

L'ensemble des prestations étaient très bien. La piscine et l'espace spa étaient admirables. La vue est splendide depuis l'hôtel. Restaurant très bon également pour le dîner même si la carte est surprenante au vue du statut de l'hôtel.

5 star location, 2 star service.
Pros:

Very long wait ( c. 25 mins + ) for meal to arrive once ordered. Asked a waiter how much longer it'd be before our meals arrived - he said a couple of minutes - meals finally arrived 10 minutes after that. Not all meals arrived at the same time - more waiting, and one order was missing part of the meal - which was eventually brought out too when I asked. This was on a quiet midweek evening with the restaurant maybe 40% full. Milk served with post dinner tea was sour - off. Food itself was very good - when it arrived. I used to be a regular here and loved it, the location is spectacular. Five star location, five star prices but two star service.

The hotel is beautiful: The room, the breakfast room, the grounds and the view -- all superb. The staff was most attentive and helpful. We LOVED everything. It was our second time and we will be back.

Very enjoyable
Pros:

Location is superb with amazing views

Cons:

Untidiness around lounge and outdoor area. Empty glasses left on outdoor tables. A chair had blown over or pushed over into the garden where there are tables to sit and enjoy a drink. That chair was still like that when we left the following day. . Not one member of staff picked up the chair and placed it around the table making it inviting to sit down and have a drink. At the price they charge and the star rating they have it’s the little things that matter
