Location: Center of Wick, easy access to local attractions
“I found the apartments here to be surprisingly spacious and well-appointed, offering a comfortable haven after exploring the Highlands. While some areas in the main building show their age, the genuine warmth of the staff, particularly Kirsty's helpfulness, and the quality of the bar meals made for a good value stay. It's a place that, despite minor quirks, feels worth returning to.”
