Don't know why this place isn't busier. Food and service was brilliant, staff very attentive and excellent value for money. Think it needs advertised bit more or have a groupon offer to encourage trade as this is a wee jewel.

This is a small family run hotel right in the centre of Nairn. Very handy to get out and about. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the B & B rate is great value. Breakfast choice is fairly limited though, full cooked breakfast or packets cereal, no fruit or porridge. The only real let down was the attached Italian... More

I stayed at the Aurora the weekend of the Loch Ness Marathon. The hotel had been recommended by a colleague who had stayed the previous year. The rooms (4 of us stayed) were clean, tidy and comfortable. The hotel also has an onsite Italian restaurant, which does some frankly great food. Nairn is about a 30 minute drive from Inverness,...

We didn't stay, just ate here, and it was all perfect: Delicious Italian food, brilliant customer service, and the cleanest ladies' loos I have ever seen! Also very family-friendly, our children were allowed to stay until 9 pm. Can't rate it highly enough.

We've never posted a negative comment before but we were so disappointed with this restaurant. Our first impression from the staff was good, they were friendly. The food however was not so pleasant. The seabream was overcooked and the accompanying sautéed potatoes were very greasy. Chicken dish was very dry too and the salad very oily. We opted for the... More

+ Centrally located + Clean rooms + Friendly staff + Good breakfast +/- Not cheap, but seems to be around the same as other hotels/b&b in the city +/- Some might find the beds too hard - Outdated interior in the rooms - Some other hotels in the area have sea view

We didnt stay here, we just ate. It was quite expensive compared to where we usually eat but it was worth every penny!!! Staff were friendly. Meals arrived quickly. Very nice atmosphere too. We can't wait to go back.

Rooms were a good size and beds comfy. Good value for money. I had expected worse having read the other reviews on trip advisor. The drawbacks were the cooked breakfasts which were more or less inedible - over cooked eggs, undercooked bacon and sausages which didn't taste anything like a sausage. Certainly would not recommend eating here. Hosts friendly though... More
