Reviews for The Albert Inn
Review 1:Nothing i didnt like. but a suggest maybe update the keys in the door. as this is the first hotel i been in that didnt use electoric keys (a card you swipe to enter) But very homie 10of 10 guys & girls see you all soon.
Review 2:THE LOCATION AS WE CAME INTO NAIRN VIA THE BUS & COULD SEE IT AS WE ENTERED NAIRN . NO WONDERING WHERE IT WAS.
Review 3:The staff were brilliant and felt homely. The facilities were all you would need for a trip and rooms were warm and comfortable. Breakfast was great and it was definitely value for money
Review 4:hotel was clean and tidy, however more attention could have been made to the shower.
Review 5:We really enjoyed our stay, room was really comfortable. Large room, comfy bed. the towel shaped like elephants are a nice touch. The food was brilliant. We had the £10 steak which was huge and perfectly cooked.
Review 6:The Inn was in an ideal location for my purposes. Very close to the town centre as well. Great being able to go downstairs and have a meal if I wanted. Couldn't have asked for better.
Review 7:Room was ensuite but sink was in bedroom. Also shower was very small and either scalding hot or freezing cold. Breakfast was only ok.
Review 8:Bar food was good and good value for money.
Review 9:A little bit of noise but I expected it being above bar. The room lock took a bit of fiddling with No 8 and not most secure. But small points.
Review 10:Value for money, and most of all the food is excellent.
Review 11:Wi-fi a bit patchy, didn't work in the bedrooms.
Review 12:Staff pleasant & helpful. Lovely room, great breakfast. Easy walk to High Street and eateries.
Review 13:Having to go into crowded bar to check in.
Review 14:Room clean but a little jaded. Bed was big and comfy, Room large and was better than I expected after checking in at bar. Breakfast was very good. Good location for exploring Nairn and surrounding area with out breaking the bank.
Review 15:Room 4 smelt a little (dusty, old) but I opened the window and left it slightly open for my stay which helped get rid of the smell.
Review 16:The staff were great. The room itself was very clean and comfortable.
Review 17:En suite was very small, but functional. Rooms are above the bar, so expect some noise (jukebox, smokers outside)
Review 18:Good clean comfortable room Friendly staff Very good food (breakfast and evening meals freshly cooked to order)
Review 19:Some noise from (music) from the jukebox and from people passing our room but not really a problem we still enjoyed our stay.
Review 20:very friendly welcome and staff very helpful. evening meal was really good and at a good price. breakfast was also excellent.
Review 21:The shower was terrible the Hot water ran out the first night and went hot & cold the second night the Breakfast didn't start till 8am on the weekend didn't suit us as we had too leave early.
Review 22:The location was Great too walk into the town. The Staff were very helpful
Review 23:The smell and heat. Obviously, on an August evening above a pub, the room was hot, but it was very airless in both the halls and the room (I have mild asthma so found this more unpleasant than my partner). The room (especially the bathroom) smelled very much like old smoke - I imagine this is leftover from the days of smoking in pubs and hotels. It made for a very unpleasant night, and gave the overall visit a negative feeling.
Review 24:Cannot fault the staff - they were wonderful. Both the lady that checked us in, and the chef at breakfast were extremely polite and lovely.
Review 25:The modernisation is done cheaply, wallpaper and paint but the poor condition of the bathroom - sorry, shower room - and general effect is poor. There is a smell of damp throughout, in room and in particular in the corridors. Near main road too so some noise.
Review 26:If you look on this as a pub with rooms, it's fine. An attempt has been made to modernise, and the staff at arrival and breahfast were friendly. Big TV and decent bed and a pub downstairs. No noise from the bar to my room.
Review 27:Small details need more attention. Loose flush handle, loose towel rail. Plenty of coffe, tea, milk provided in the room but no spoon or stirrer. 2 socket from 4 does not work
Review 28:Friendly staff, nice breakfast, comfy bed
Review 29:Our room was situated over a very busy pub which we didn't realise when booked, never slept at all the 1st night so was moved to the back
Review 30:Location, very central
Review 31:Run down, in need of complete overhaul and too expensive. The toiletmakes crazy noises when you flush it, the beds are uncomfortable andit's over a bar that was open until 1:00. Street noise was bad anddrunks yelling in the street at 2:00 in the morning. The proprietor wasvery nice! Wish the place was more up to date and not over a bar. Badchoice on my part.
Review 32:The proprietors were very nice and helpful. Parking was convenient.
Review 33:Shower not working in room 8. Every time you flushed the toilet it sounded like a train going through the room, the tray where the cups were was dirty so we didn't drink anything, there were on stains on carpet and cushion also tea? stains down front of drawers. The wardrobe was full of duvets cushions and a mirror on the floor inside. Very strange
Review 34:Staff were great, beds were soft and all linen was spotless. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful so much so that I couldn't finish it all. Although room was over the bar we didn't hear any noise.
Review 35:Didn't like having 2 go in 2 a public bar 2 get key 4 bedroom . Front of hotel all closed up thought hotel had closed down when I arrived
Review 36:Bedroom was realy nice and comfortable
Review 37:It is not very far back from a main road so you do hear some traffic noise. The key for the room was a bit tricky to use and the neighbouring showers make a rumbling noise.
Review 38:5 minutes from station and 1 min from bus station. The freshly cooked breakfast and the friendliness of the owners/managers
Review 39:Room was sited over the bar and the music from the bar kept us awake until 1.00am; limited parking, shared with the pub customers - no wifi pass or information given and staff based in pub serving customers
Review 40:Price was ridiculous I have stayed in a better Hostle. First impressions when parking outside was is the car going to be safe! The cleanliness of the place was pretty awful, stains all around the toilet on the bathroom carpet (disgusting) the hole place needs overhauled! Staff were very unfreindly. I would not stay in the Albert inn again an I wouldn't advise anyone else to either!
Review 41:shower room cramped with nowhere to hang towels or put toiletries. bedroom badly laid out couldn't open the cupboard/wardrobe fully because off the self closing mechanism on bedroom door
Review 42:cheerful staff and great breakfast
Review 43:tiny shower stall with no soap dish to hold your own soap & shampoo bottle .. difficult to clean oneself even if you're thin in stature
Review 44:off street parking for rental car; made to order full breakfast
Review 45:Thin walls and doors. Could here people talking most of the night.
Review 46:The owner was very nice and apologetic for the rowdy party. Actually gave us the night free. If we had known the room was over a bar we wouldn't have booked it.
Review 47:All good.
Review 48:Bed really comfy and loved the towel elephants - (have to be seen to be believed). Breakfast was all good fair - lovely poached eggs for those of you who are health conscious. Friendly staff. Nice & quiet, central location to beach & High Street. Recommended for mid range.
Review 49:The bedroom was lovely - good size, comfy, clean, and seemingly fairly recently decorated. Even though we were above the bar it was quiet. Nice breakfast.
Review 50:what I didn't like was that there were elements of the bedroom that were filthy such as the remote control was really dirty and that the water pressure of the shower was poor.... Our bathroom light went out also on our first night and we asked staff if they could change it but it was forgotten and changed the next day once we asked a second time.
Review 51:what I liked was the location and that the staff were friendly and nice....
Review 52:The only thing was the bed,as it was two singles pushed together so you had a small gap.
Review 53:The location was perfect,easy to get around from the Albert inn.a good full breakfast ,clean warm room.would recommend and would stay there again.
Review 54:Everything. It was dirty, with a fusty smell everywhere. My clothes and belongings smelt fusty when I got home. Horrible. This is a run down, disgusting place! I will never be back.
Review 55:Nothing
Review 56:The food at The Albert Inn was excellent, good choice on the dinner menu, breakfast was cooked well and not greasy. The staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere in the bar.
Review 57:Breakfast was too early and there was no reception area, book in at the bar and no-where to leave the key on departure?
Review 58:The facilities in the room were good.
Review 59:Nothing to complain about.
Review 60:This is my 2nd visit to the hotel and the bed in room 4 is very comfortable which I had an excellent nights sleep. Wireless signal in the room was good. Breakfast and the evening meal in the bare was outstanding.
Review 61:Small room but no worse than a lot of other pubs. The hall and stairs to the rooms reeked of air freshener to cover up the stuffiness but the room itself was fine.
Review 62:Friendly staff, good food in the bar restaurant for dinner.
Review 63:Could do with a complete revamp, and clean! Shower not working "fawlty" Lock on door, not working "Fawlty" Hall and stairway grotty and smelly! Dirty towels on arrival, half a loo roll, carpets dirty and stained Won't be going back and would not recommend. Worst place we have stayed in!
Review 64:Nothing, but breakfast o.k
Review 65:Shower wasn't the best. Could do with a socket nearer the dressing table/desk. Hall up to the rooms was a little dark.
Review 66:We stayed for 2 nights Fri-Sun. The room was clean & tastefully decorated. Bed was big/comfy & was made daily along with new towels. Big TV, seating area & tea/coffee making facilities in room. Breakfast was very good as was the snack we had when we arrived on the Fri. Good nights sleep.
Review 67:Reception turned out to be the bar of the inn.
Review 68:Excellent breakfast - very large bed - quietness of the bedrooms despite being close to main street - good car parking.
Review 69:The whole place could do with a good clean and a bit of paint.
Review 70:The food was very good and the bedroom was a nice surprise after the hall ways, the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly.
Review 71:Room smelled a bit damp. Marks all over walls on stairway. Lock on door was not easy to work. Shower just a trickle - needs attention.
Review 72:Location was good for Business. Staff were very attentive. Room was pretty comfortable but think could be an issue if bar was busy as above that area. Meal and Breakfast were nice. Bed comfy.
Review 73:Room and general interior very shabby and in need of TLC. Door lock awful no water in shower and no room to swing a cat in bathroom. Breakfast room like an oven
Review 74:Location Staff at breakfast Breakfast Cost
Review 75:Decor in public areas was tired. It needs renovation. It was impossible to control the temperature of the shower in our room. Didn't bother reporting it because we were only there for a short stay.
Review 76:Rooms were OK. Good size, reasonable decoration. Clean. Breakfast was very good.
Review 77:Only problem we had was the room door would not lock very easily. I had to pull the door in all directions and continually turn the key to get it to lock, this really needs fixing.
Review 78:We were on a driving trip through Europe, and the hotel was well located for us to visit family in Nairn, Aviemore and Elgin. Because we were out with family all the time, the breakfast was the only meal we ate there, but it was very good, lots of choice, and cooked to order, so fresh cooked as opposed to lying in a buffet for maybe an hour.
Review 79:Location next to a busy road, rooms over the car park. Unfortunately the rooms smelt of fat from the fryer. Showers hardly more than a trickle.
Review 80:The decor in the bedroom and the folded towels.
Review 81:Nothing.
