My stay at Kinkell House was a welcoming experience with clean and cozy rooms, though I did notice some issues like a broken floorboard and thin walls. The hosts were friendly and helpful, making my stay enjoyable. The location was convenient for walking into town, and the breakfast was quite nice, though I found it a bit pricey for what I received overall.

I found Kinkell House to be a charming 18th-century property, rich in character, but it’s beginning to show its age. While the hosts were welcoming and the location was convenient for exploring Dingwall, the overall maintenance left something to be desired. My breakfast experience was a bit lackluster, and the cleanliness in certain areas was concerning. Overall, it has potential but needs some TLC. 😕

I had a comfortable stay at Kinkell House, with clean rooms and a friendly atmosphere. The quirky decor added some charm, though the lack of ensuite bathrooms for some rooms was a bit disappointing. The breakfast offered decent options, but for the price paid, I felt it could have been a better experience overall.

I had a mixed experience at Kinkell House. While the location was ideal, being close to the city center and the river, the room's decor felt tired and the owners weren’t as welcoming as I had hoped. The cleanliness was commendable, but I found the breakfast options quite limited. Overall, it was a comfortable stay but not without its drawbacks.
