“The Seaview John O' Groats Hotel makes a strong impression with its fantastic location and truly excellent food, particularly the rump steak and breakfasts, all served by remarkably friendly and accommodating staff. It's a place where a hot shower with good pressure and comfortable, firmer mattresses contribute to a very pleasant stay, even in its more basic pods. The addition of a pub with pool and darts adds a bit of spirited charm, and for those with pets, its dog-friendly nature is a significant advantage.”
