The location is a very short walk to the beach. There are no lifts; check in as at the restaurant. I booked the seaview room, and given the low price I paid, I was not expecting much. But I was pleasantly surprised. You can see the sea and the park from your window, and I loved waking up to such a lovely view. The area is quiet.
There is complementary biscuit, coffee, tea, milk and a water kettle in the room. The toilet and shower are clean; the towels are fluffy. Water pressure from the shower is acceptable but can be improved. They sometimes have a live band/singer performing at night at the restaurant and you can hear the music from your room, but this did not bother me at all.
Excellent breakfast (cook to order, and plenty of choices) is served at the restaurant, which has a great seaview. The restaurant staff were very pleasant and attentive.
Will book here again next time I’m in Nairn.

The superb view from our 'sea view' room. The convivial atmosphere of the bar and restaurant. The accommodation wing was soundproofed from the live music in the bar. The helpful owner and staff and friendly locals. A delightful place to stay.

The hotel location was excellent , and along with the great service from the staff from the moment we arrived we couldn’t fault the Bandstand. We also put in a room request due to an elderly relative, and again this was responded too quickly and efficiently.

A great rate for single room with breakfast provided. Guy at bar did check-in and he was excellent. Friendly and helpful like his colleague who served breakfast in the morning. Room was spacious for one with a comfy bed. Room was clean with a good shower. Breakfast was delicious. Something homely about the Bandstand.

Staff were pleasant and breakfast was nice.
Didnt tell us until we arrived at 7.30pm that no food was on, could have sent a message earlier, hallway was full of old furniture and paint pots and shower cubicle had mould around the edges, stain roofed in bedroom, not worth the price. Parking is also down the street in a public car park...

Nice location next to the beach.
The room was above the bar which had very loud live music which was not good for me .Had I seen this when booking I wouldn't have booked the room!

Clean and comfortable room. Staff were very accommodating. Plenty options for breakfast.
Couldn't sleep for the band playing in the bar as it went on until 1:10am. Not much room for parking as the carnival took over the free car park across the road.
