The National Hotel Dingwall in Highland

Met 2 friends here at 11am om Thursday 11th July for coffee and cake . Bar area was lovely and clean as were the tables . Staff were all pleasant and smartly dressed. We had a well behaved spaniel with us . Credit to the management and staff. Thank you . Donald .

we were invited back for refreshments after a funeral, well it was terrible to say the least not one member of staff to put us to the room where the food was lying on tables at the side and the 2 urns for tea and coffie nobody was told anything as there was not one person there to ask so it was a family member who took it upon herself to get things moving. i was asked did i want tea and was given a cup of cold tea the urnes were not even switched on, ffs the sandwiches were all dry round the outside and basic rubbishy filled well then we come to the worst little sausage rolls in the history of baking they were disgusting cheep rubish the only thing that was half ok was the scones so owners of this dump get your act together and give folk a better service in the future. 0 out of 10.

My friend and I went to the National today the 29th of March. We both had the fish and chips and can honestly say the tastiest we have had in along time. Batter to die for, huge portions. Well presented and excellent value. Friendly and helpful staff. Would highly recommend

The hotel has been taken over, and you can see that it is being refurbished bit by bit. The room was comfortable enough. THE STAFF ARE EXCEPTIONAL. They greet you properly, provide proper service, and make you feel like a welcome guest and not an inconvenience. Now, the real test is how they react when something goes wrong. We had a meal (which was good) that was ruined because I had to remove my daughter from the restaurant due to the behaviour of some locals who were going a bit too far. We left half our meal. I complained the next morning. The owner immediately apologised (took complete ownership, no argument or excuse) of the problem and ensured that our stay was as pleasant as possible. That is proper service and something that you don't see very often. The food was good and generously portioned. A slightly expanded menu would have been good or a dish of the day, but Dingwall is a small rural town, so I can understand why the menu was limited. Wifi was also good Overall, Yes, I will come back.

We spent two midweek nights at The National in January 2024. The lasting impression will be of how friendly and helpful all the staff we met were. Our room was spacious and well equipped; coffee, milk, etc. was replenished and there were fresh towels daily. The breakfasts were excellent, freshly prepared with care and imagination, alongside a generous buffet. On the first night we ate in the hotel restaurant - a limited but adequate choice but again freshly prepared, good quality food served with a smile. There are areas of the hotel in need of some refurbishment but nothing that adversely affected our stay - we were comfortable and well looked after. I genuinely do not know how this level of service can be provided for the price we paid.

Shocking treatment of teenagers. Shut down their Xmas dance after 90 mins and no refund offered. Easy money made, staff get home early, whilst 70 teenagers disappointed . Shame on you National !

Stayed on a Saturday night in a delux double room. A nice room with very modern bathroom. Plenty of gluten free options for dinner and adapted breakfast to ensure gluten free. Even the cafe attached to the hotel had a nice gluten free cake. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only negative was lack of hot water in the shower, even though the sink had hot water.

We stopped here for lunch and the fish and chips were wonderful! Very clean and the service was top notch. We highly recommend it.

This hotel gets 5 stars from me because they gave us some rooms at short notice and we urgently needed them . I believe the hotel is in the process of a refurb ,which is needed in some areas ,but our bedding ,towels etc were clean ,bed comfortable, complimentary hot drinks tray and kettle in our room ,the Highland sea kelp soap,shampoo and shower gel were really nice ,above all of these things though were the helpful staff , especially Leah who was so friendly and kind ,she is a real asset to the hotel ,we enjoyed a few hours in the bar and the food was good too .Thank you from us bikers from Yorkshire .

I unfortunately arrived at a meal time the bar staff told me. The manager told me in a email that they were dealing with another customer. Glad I wasn’t wanting to book in for a stay as the manager thought my complaint of ringing the doorbell 5 times was exaggerated. I had compared it to if there was a fire would they have dealt with the customer first! Word of warning don’t try and see anyone at the hotel during meal times or if they have an imaginary customer!

Great restaurant bar atmosphere, the hosts were pretty good on taking our orders very polite and efficient. Would definitely come back again

Shocking absolutely shocking !! Ordered Cullen skink soup it was a absolute embarrassment to a age old Scottish dish !! I order it wherever I go and NEVER have I seen it so bad !! Who puts salmon in a Cullen skink it was lacking in smoked fish and was just a congealed mess !! Came with bread no butter had to ask for it never asked if we wanted sauce vinegar etc etc payed the bill and left don’t go here it’s a million miles from what’s required!!

We hebben overnacht in Dingwall en waren op zoek naar een plaats om te eten. We kwamen terecht in the Stag (bar/pub) die bij het hotel hoort. We hebben lekker en betaalbaar gegeten en gedronken. Veel locals die ook voetbal zaten te kijken. Dat kan wel wat rumoerig zijn.

I booked friends into the National..it being so close to the station and the other venues we were using for our meeting. Sadly it was Karoke night which they hadn't been warned about and all but one ( she is very deaf) slept badly. One of group who is elderly was on the top floor and there was no help offered with cases. Breakfast was very disappointing, even the Continental version and the tea/ coffee etc. in the rooms had obviously been there for some time. The good thing about the stay was that the rooms were clean and the one member of staff who seemed to have to do everything was very friendly and did her best.

we stayed here at the weekend as we were up for the football, the staff are extremely helpful & go above & beyond to help. Hotel is in a great location next to the train station, the room was very clean with good amenities & the breakfast was beautiful. We will defo stay here again

We had a lovely meal last night. Efficient service. Sea bass was cooked to perfection. My partner had steak and enjoyed this too. Really good value for money. Finished with a yummy espresso martini!

The hotel itself is a little tired but the room we got (103) was pleasant enough although as mentioned - heating pipe work looks a bit tired. (Room 101 has door access to outside balcony). Hotel room warm and cosy, furniture is of a good solid standard and bed is comfortable. All you need (kettle / tea / coffee etc), nice tartan curtains and matching bedspread. Bathroom recently renovated to high standard and very spacious overall (corner bath and separate shower). Staff exceptionally professional and extremely helpful and always willing to go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and welcoming as possible. 10 out of 10 to the owners and a very big thank you for all that they had done, assisted and helped us during our stay.

This is the 3rd time I’ve stayed in this hotel and I find it amazing wee place, everything you need is close by and the staff are very friendly and helpful, room 101 is amazing with the balcony and the double shower, the breakfast is simply outstanding and they have a lovely bar/restaurant downstairs which always seemed busy. Well worth the money and visit. I will be back once maybe twice a year 👌🏼

My husband and I came to Dingwall to visit our friends and they took us to the National Hotel bar and restaurant called The Stag. We were very pleased with everything, from the yummy and very well designed menu to the cool drinks and awesome vibe the place offers! They had a duo playing live music in the bar that evening as well and we had such a great time singing along their tunes. The staff is also great and super friendly and we had a superb time overall, we truly can't wait to get back and we can't recommend enough their delicious food and great atmosphere.

We stayed here recently and decided to eat in their restaurant. To be honest we weren't very hopeful of getting anything other than a very basic meal, but we found the menu to be simple but diverse. I decided to risk the cod - not something I would normally do in an unknown restaurant but still. My partner went for the risotto. You will agree that these are both dishes that can be a bit - shall we say - risky. But how right we were to choose them! The cod arrived - a lovely thick piece of cod, cooked perfectly, with a crisp skin, atop a bed of peas cooked French style with spring onions, with whole baby potatoes sautéed and a light sauce to set it all off. My partner's asparagus risotto was a creamy delight, well seasoned and the rice with exactly the right amount of "bite". A bottle of Merlot to enjoy. Cheerful service. What's not to like. The decor is simple and plain. The bar next door was quite noisy, but once the door between was closed it was quiet and we were undisturbed.

Had a lovely family meal with my wife, sister and brother in law with their child. Our dietary situation between us means that one was lactose free, one gluten free and another vegetarian. With this in mind the staff catered for everything. They were also...

This piece of s@@t is an embarrassment. Awful room, awful hospitality, car park scam, ignorant locals at bar. Give this terrible place a miss

Me and my friends were here for 5 days as we were visiting dingwall for field trip, the staff is clvery caring and friendly, the rooms are comfy and decent as well, and are regularly cleaned...!The food is outstanding, I remember once they served chicken tikka and it had all the spices required which is uncommon with indian food in here at UK, but the chef seems to know his spices.And the staff, specially Alan and Nick were very helpful and friendly. I loved my stay here..!Gonna visit again soon

Called at the hotel on a couple of occasions for a drink whilst staying nearby. Very quiet during the day and little in the way of atmosphere but staff very friendly. Drinks ok and priced reasonably.

I've been staying at the National for the last two weeks , the food and staff were good . However they don't cater very well for workers on night shift , as someone else pointed out a timetable in the bedrooms would be a handy addition as it seems to vary to suit staff availability . The bedrooms are in need of refurbishment , but my main complaint is to do with visitors , my partner arrived on Wednesday for a shopping trip and was made to feel unwelcome by Andrea at reception who went on to explain visitors were not allowed in the hotel due to their insurance policy . I would suggest if you own a hotel then perhaps a course in hospitality would not be wasted on you .

Vandaag na een lange rit door Schotland terug gegaan naar een vertrouwd adres. Hebben hier in 2017 ook al naar tevredenheid gegeten.Er bleek een nieuwe kok met nieuw menu. Het was weer super. Wetende dat we nog 3 dagen in de omgeving zij zullen zeker nog een keer eten in dit restaurant. Personeel is super

I stupidly ordered the Mixed Grill as part of High Tea. The portions were enormous and defeated me. I must have put on another 2 stone and should have asked for a Doggy bag. Cant wait to return but will request a childs portion next time. Also the guy serving us was a credit to the Hotel - Thank You.

Didn't eat here but made enquiries in the bar. It seemed uncertain if the chef would be working and equally uncertain what was available on the menu. Chose to go elsewhere, A good choice I believe

Nous étions partis pour aller dans un restaurant puisque celui-ci était dit à éviter s'il y avait des groupes pour le dîner, ce qui ne fut pas le cas. Nous étions a peu près seuls dans la grande salle de restaurant. La cuisine écossaise est très bonne, mais l'attente est longue (pour faire de la bonne cuisine, il faut attendre, néanmoins c'était très long). Incontestablement, ils ne savent pas bien gérer, il y avait plusieurs erreurs dans l'addition! A essayer tout de même.

enjoyable Sunday lunch, good food plenty of choice, friendly helpful staff, clean & cosy environment table laid out with nice fresh table cloths would definitely recommend

Fish batter burnt and full of bones, scampi cheap frozen, macaroni thick and dry, mixed grill dry. Guy on next table moaned about tough steak.Cakes etc for high tea were OK. Hardly any staff but they were good. Freezing outside with lot of snow, so why curtains wide open and dining room doors wedged wide open, place was freezing.

Lovely clean laid out dining room with nice linen table cloths. Food was good and beautifully presented . Plates were piping hot .

We did not stay in this hotel, we were there for a Funeral tea. The soup and the sandwiches were very nice , lovely fresh produce in the sandwiches ,The soup was very hot, its just what we needed on that day.

Paid 97£ for a night here. Heat in the room didn’t work. Mattresses are either really cheap or really old. No hotel information in the room. Blankets were small for a twin bed. Tea kettle was dirty. That being said, the restaurant was really good.

Stayed here for a Saturday night after Hearts game. Hotel was a bit tired looking and could do with an upgrade. Rooms were comfortable and clean but again a bit dated. Food for dinner was good although breakfast could have been better.

Good venue, excellent for large family gathering. Nice food but we thought the drinks were bit pricey.

Cannot fault this restauranr Superb customer service Excellent menu choices tasty food two courses for two people with alcoholic drinks came in at just £40

Thomas ingles and the other young boy who were working on the sat 23rd sept were amazing...we wrote both names on separate paper and lost the other boys names.

We came there on 10 september `17 mij birthday and we had a verry good meal. the staff was nice...

Stayed here last week for 4 nights last week as I was up working in the area. Had an ensuite double room which was spotless and clean fresh towels too. The staff on reception were nice and pleasant. I did not have any breakfast as it was not served until 8.00am,and by that time I was away at work,but in place of breakfast a packed lunch was waiting in the morning for me,which included sandwiches,piece of fruit,chocolate bar,crisps,juice or water and a biscuit. The room was made up everyday which is always good,yes I have got to say a very good place to spend a few nights.

Glad to find this around corner from our b&b.; Very good menu and quality food. Drinks at pub, not hotel,...

Great meal for 2 for £31 incl deserts. Lovely setting .... great food .... seeet staff. Highly recommended.

We walked in on a Saturday night and had dinner at the hotel.Don't except a fancy menu, it's basically posh pub food. I had a venison pie and my wife had fish and chips. Food was just ok.On the bright side, staff were very friendly and helpful.

We stayed here for one night on our way north. Room was small with twin beds, bathroom extremely basic. Flow of hot water in the shower very slow, light above the mirror not working, taps too small for the basin so unable to get hands under them. Room was clean, bed linen and towels fine. Chair need to be replaced, see photo. No hairdryer or tissues provided, toiletries poor and on the tea tray only one sachet of coffee, three milk cartons and no biscuits. Should have been replenished before new guests arrived, and be enough for the number of guests, and to have more than one cup each! Breakfast the usual buffet, chaotic but OK. Staff friendly. You may think I'm being very fussy and picky, but this room cost £130, more that you would pay in Inverness or Aberdeen and certainly more basic than a Premier Inn. Not good value for money in my opinion I'm afraid!

Very basic hotel not good if your looking for comfort as I hardly slept a wink and the window wouldn't open as jammed shut I tried everything to open it to let air in and the towels were very basic as in you could nearly see through them

Called in without booking but got a table. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the restaurant is charming if a bit dated, but this adds to the charm. (White linen napkins, lovely). Had the carvery, only one choice of meat , beef, which was fine but may have been a bit well done for some people. Good selection of potatoes and vegetables which really needed replenishing. All in all good value for money.

We stayed in rooms 101 and 122, what can I say excellent for the price we paid. staff where very helpful and informative about the area and beyond and told us of places to look out for. There is no lift in this hotel. Set in a very quiet area and close to a beautiful town centre. Would of been helpful if breakfast didn't have to be booked by 8pm the night before and didn't finish at 9am as most hotels I stay in finish service at 10am and you can just turn up and have breakfast in the morning without booking. Breakfast was good and freshly cooked.

Well, how to start with this place, we stayed in a hovel of a hotel on Thursday night (the royal guest house) that didn't serve breakfast, so we came here at quarter to 9 in the morning and asked if it was possible to have breakfast and despite the kitchen due to close at 9 they were more than happy to help and served and incredible breakfast freshly cooked, the waitress was an asset the the place and I kick myself for not remembering her name but she was so friendly and couldn't be more helpful. We decided to cancel our reservation at the royal guest house we had booked for the second night and decided to come and stay here. There were 2 rooms available that we booked at a fantastic price, we went to our rooms, they were warm, welcoming and spotless, the second room wasn't quite ready but this was 10 in the morning, completely forgivable and yet the receptionist and the manager (who was also very very helpful and friendly) were so apologetic, like I said we had only booked it 15 minutes ago and didn't even expect the rooms to be ready it was not a problem at all, we were out for the day anyway. We came back, the hotel is lovely and secure with the doors being locked between 9 and 10pm, guests are given a pass key to get in this was very comforting. It was lovely and warm and I slept like a log that night, woke up refreshed and happy, we went down for breakfast and once again we were served by the lovely waitress we had met the day before, service once again was outstanding. I also forgot to mention we had dinner in this hotel on the Thursday night and the waiters were so helpful, the food was fantastic and we left smiling until we reached the awful hotel (the royal guest house) we were staying in that night. Our trip was saved by this lovely place and the service cannot recommend highly enough, delighted with it, the manager was so lovely and greeted with a very warm welcome and chat, the waitress is also an asset the business also.

My mind's eye is still here, the experience we had here recently was fabulous! We stayed in Dingwall but ventured in to town for a bite to eat with our travel companion, our retired Greyhound. Sure he would have happily continued sleeping in the car (he'd already clocked up several hours of snoozing that says!) but we asked if dogs were allowed in the hotel, and were told by Deaann that it was find as long as we stayed to the non carpet areas. We didn't hesitate to eat here, the welcome was so friendly, and the menu was very good. We both ordered our food and were made very welcome. The food was extremely delicious, and plentiful, compliments to Alex , the chef!Craig is a fine bar man, customer service was fabulous, what a great team the Hotel has with these two at the helm!Great things to come for this place, and we look forward to returning to this part of a beautiful country.I have fallen in love with Scotland while on holiday, touring the Highlands hike following the NC500! I can't wait to rerun & will stay here next time!Thank you for such a great experience!Keep doing what your doing!Reviews are expressly my own, and if you like my style, please check out my other reviews where I will be making suggestions for NC500 & give them a like, thank you!

Had a great meal and staff and senior staff were super friendly. The meals was also excellent. I have lived in Dingwall for a number of years and the hotel has always not been good. However went in tonight for the first time in a very long time and the new management have made amazing changes. The food was great and the service was excellent. There is still work to go but if tonight is anything to go by the future is bright for this hotel

Enjoyed this hotel just went for a meal, but they had a Highland Fling on that evening and it made my stay in Dingwall superbThank so much Hilda expat from Australia

Working in Dingwall. We were recommended that we stay at the National Hotel,( known locally as The Nat)We were greeted by the new management team. Who were very friendly and gave us the keys to our room. The room itself was very nice.warm,modern in feel with modern en-suite bathroom large flat screen TV and good WiFi. The restaurant is excellent value.We enjoyed our stay so much we extended our stay.

Not the worst but not the best of places for great dining I have to say... Myself my mother and father are here on a family trip and we came across the national hotel and wanted to try the food out...Food 9-10Service 8/10 Food was fine not amazing but fine we enjoyed our meals but the service wasn't that great we wouldOf liked more conversations out of the staff... Hopefully next time if we ever come back to the highlands we can try again :) thank you

Having arriving earlier then planned and our departure delayed we got to spend the best part of the morning and afternoon in Dingwall. It is a small town in the Scottish Highlands and after one and half hours we had seen most of what Dingwall had to offer. By 1.00 pm we were in need of sustenance and set about looking for a place to eat. There was the usual pubs and places selling ready made sandwiches but we stumbled upon the delightful National Hotel coffee house. It had only been open for a few months but it seemed well patronised by the locals. The young couple who ran the coffee house Pavlina and Ondres we smashing, Freshly made Sandwiches with a side salad and crisps to order, so you got exactly what you wanted, not smothered in mayonnaise or other dressing. And very reasonably priced. It was spotless clean and nothing was to much trouble. Good selection of coffees and teas, tea served in a propper pot. If you find yourself on a touring holiday in the north of Scotland and happen to be in Dingwall give this place a visit and you won't be disappointed.

Good food with a large portion, the breakfast again had a reasonable portion but be aware the beans were not heated. Due to time restraints I did not want to make an issue of this as the rest was very nice.

A group of six had various meals which were well priced and well presented. The staff were friendly and engaged in good conversation.

Travelling north, and had not booked anywhere to stay. Convenient hotel, right in the centre of Dingwall, very easy to find. Parked car right outside. Large room, very comfortable. Decor rather tired, but new management (six weeks now) have lots of ideas for the hotel. Good dinner, very good breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. Very good value.

Went for a meal with drinks on a Saturday evening. The decor is a bit tired, so we weren't expecting much, but the food was great. It was served with the minimum of wait, by an attentive waiter. I will go again. Give it a facelift and we'd go a lot more often.

We were staying at the Gowanfield B&B guesthouse on Station Road and the owner recommended the restaurant at The National Hotel for dinner. She was able to show us the menu and we liked what we saw (incidentally the Gowanfield is a fantastic B&B). The National Hotel is under new management and they are planning some improvements to the building. They certainly don't need to change the chef. The proprietors Johan and his wife Rita were excellent hosts and we were served by a very pleasant waiter. The menu is not huge but I always think this is the sign of a good establishment. We were a group of four and started with an aperitif, followed by a main course and dessert/cheese board. Two had the Hebridean Chicken which was a fillet stuffed with black pudding and haggis, absolutely mouth watering! Served with a selection of vegetables and dauphinois potatoes. The other two had Venison, also served with haggis. This was delicious and a very generous portion. For dessert, two had strawberry cheese cake and these were small individual portions rather than the usual 'bought in' slices of cheesecake seen in many other establishments. The cheese cake was beautifully served with some accompanying fresh strawberries and ice cream. The other two shared the Scottish Cheese platter. This consisted of a very generous selection of three Scottish cheeses served with oatcakes. Very tasty! The drinks are very fairly priced with a house wine prices at £15 and a selecting of other wines at varying prices. We felt the food was excellent, service was very good and all in all an excellent evening and very good value for money.

We were travelling late and hadn't booked accommodation in advance. The National was just what we needed and even though the restaurant was about to close they cheerfully rustled up two fish & chip meals. Parked our car right by the front door. Just an older style hotel but good value with friendly staff and nice clean rooms.

Very nice.New chef.Had three lunches there and all lovely.Definitely go back and recommend.Right in the heart of the Town, so easy to find.

OK , so the decor is a bit old fashioned but it is a very old hotel and I believe the decor gives it a bit of personality.Anyway the food is very good value, you can get a two course lunch Mon/Fri for around £7 or pick from the full menu which averages about £10 per main course.We have visited many times and cannot complain about service or food, if you are unhappy with your meal please complain and it will be replaced as is the case in most hotels. Previous posts suggest their are not many eateries in Dingwall and sadly this is true given the size of the town but try this hotel and if you are dissatisfied with your meal please say so there and then as they are obliged to replace or refund if not to standard.

Bloody awful won't go again .It was amazing in august .what is missing .sorry but nothing like we had in august

Popped in to the National because of the free wi fi its a lovely old place but i was the only customer i think they might do tours had a few then left but well worth a visit <><><>

Was recommend by our landlord, if we liked British food to go here!The frontage is impressive we were seated quickly and given menus, I had a glass of Chardonnay it was very good!I ordered the goats cheese and blini starter this was very tasty but far to much English lettuce as garnish on the plate and a dribble of balsamic reduction not really needed when there is also a chutney on the plate, my partner had the stuffed mushrooms with Haggis these were also tasty but yet again plate was covered in lettuce as garnish! I had the fish cakes not much taste. My partner had fish and chips it was full of bones and not much taste. The chips on both dishes felt and tasted like they had been sitting for awhile.

Omg ate here last Sunday.what a mistake it was awful.had black pudding starter melted cheese on top and iceberg lettuce looked like it was hacked by an axe.then pork loin stuffed with something it ws so dry needed plenty drink to help get it down.never again

Food is reasonably priced and tasty with friendly service. Choice in town is limited, hence is worth a look. Be warned that the place caters for coach parties so speed of service may suffer at times. In fairness. Our food was delivered swiftly and was in the main tasty.

just saw it besides the street and literally drifted in there by car; interior looks a little bit old fashioned but not wrecked; but hey , we are here for dinner; we had: cullen skink, grilled goat cheese w/ salad, black pudding and sticky toffee pudding; all very tasty; staff was very nice; everytime again worth a visit!!

Dinner was served by a very nice waitress. Other than that the steak was like rubber, onion rings soggy and the chips were the best part. The dining room has wood paneling and nice detailing, but with the layout and furniture it looks shabby.Accepting that the choice may be limited in the area, this may be the standard to expect. If you are able, I would jump in the car and look elsewhere.

Went in here for a pub dinner totally off cuff as fancied a change and had some delicious fajitas! Not the most exciting/smart venue bur clean and comfortable xxx

We stayed in the national hotel .very nice refurbished rooms .We had a meal in the hotel restaurant both nights and it was absolutely fabulous well well worth a trip if only for the food .

ne venez pas à deux s'il y a déjà des groupes dans le restaurant même, sauf s'ils sont dans des salons réservés. En effet le service ne suit plus dans ce cas et nous avons dû attendre deux heures pour nous faire servir un "fish&chips" !

Again good staff, making you feel wecome. Good beer at good prices. Nice chatty barstaff. Will go again and recommended.

Stayed in this hotel for a few days and found it to be ok, nothing special but clean and comfortable with a nice bar and good food

Disgusting is all I can say !! from start to finish. I will never return here !!Didnt stay...just ate. food cold, presentation dreadful, female manager needs to get some manners !! Awful decor..dirty & dated.
