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.

Great stay and easy to reach Inverness

Great hotel! The room was very spacious and staff very friendly. The pub downstairs is a plus and the food was great! Parking was on the street but free and was very easy and we literally parked at the hotel door. Was very easy to reach Inverness, Culloden and Clava Cairns + Nairn is a super cute little town. High recommend this stay :)

Cute little place with 4 rooms . Nicely appointed and comfortable. Friendly staff. A bit noisy in the evening but ok after 10:30 pm. Warning: they do not make the room or clean the bathroom u til you check out!

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.

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.

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

Bare bones but cute room, with big with high sealing and very clean. We enjoyed the property. It is a small gem . Downstairs is a nice pub with excellent fish and chips Nd a nice fun atmosphere.

A real gem...

Really nice place to spend a Saturday night. The location is fab, just off the main A96 Road yet very quiet. Also very close to the beach and park in Nairn. The room was bright and airy and spacious, as well as conformable and a very powerful shower indeed. A wonderful bar and restaurant downstairs too. This is a gem of a hotel and I cannot wait to come back later this summer.
