All staff could not have been more friendly and welcoming. We were travelling with the dog; ate breakfast and dinner in the hotel bar rather than the restaurant with the dog which is totally the right move as not everyone is happy around dogs. Lovely room. If I was being picky, the shower head could have done with being replaced but for 1 night, it was totally fine.

On our road trip around Scotland, we stayed at McKays Hotel in Wick and were pleasantly surprised by the experience. While the hotel has a slightly dated charm, it more than makes up for it with outstanding service and hospitality. The staff were incredible – warm, welcoming, and attentive – making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Service throughout our stay was impeccable. Although the rooms were on the smaller side, they were clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed for a relaxing stopover. Overall, McKays Hotel provided a cosy and accommodating stay with truly exceptional staff. A great choice for travellers exploring the beautiful northern Highlands.

Older hotel that needs love

This hotel was easy to find and street parking available. The town is very small and especially dead on a Sunday. The walls of the hotel were crumbling, so clearly old and needed some love, but the bed was comfortable. We ate dinner here also and did not find the quality to be the best. I would not eat there again.

Lovely overnight stop

We arrived in late and were still let check in and had a couple of lovely local whiskys in the bar. Breakfast the next morning was nice and simple and we were on our way. Perfect for a quick overnight stop.

Weathering the storm

It was good, nice staff very helpful, unfortunately I had a room which was into the wind during storm Floris and a fair bit of water came in above the bathroom window, I did report it but there was nothing that could be done at the time. Hopefully it will be fixed for future residents. Bistro food was very good and definately recommend the Fish and chips and Scallops 👍
