Our stay at The Royal Hotel was bliss. Staff were friendly and made our stay special. The view from our room was beautiful. Food excellent, especially breakfast, which serves locally caught fish and fresh produce. The porch was ideal for sitting enjoying a glass of wine looking out to the moray firth......definately be back. Davidsons. Aberdeen.

Having stayed at The Royal on several occasions in the past we were really looking forward to the refurbishments and new owners.We found the price of a nights stay was expensive compared to other places in Scotland we stayed in that week.Simple things were lacking attention. The TV was not visible from one side of the bed (see photo on... More

I have never stayed at the hotel but visit regularly to take advantage of excellant locally sourced food. The porch in the summer is a beautiful evening spot, the benchs at the front ideal for the day. The cosy lounge bar is ideal in winter. Cromarty is stunning and the Royal is a wonderful place serviced by a ridiculously attractive... More

The evening meals were superb. The lamb fell off the... More

I have just returned from a weekend stay in The Royal Hotel in Cromarty on business. I stayed in Room 1A, which I can highly recommend. The decor, furniture and four poster bed made me feel like royalty and the view from the window took my breath away, looking over the shore. The en-suite was, modern clean, complete with toiletries... More
