Short & Sweet
While it may be situated on the Shortest Street in the World, Ebenezer Place, Mackays Hotel has a big heart and its historical home, dating back to 1883, has been loved and cherished by the same family for nearly 60 years to ensure it maintains its character while embracing the very best of modern hotel luxury.
Set in the glorious landscape of Caithness, Mackays is centrally located in Wick and its award winning accommodation is a natural complement to the pure pleasure of visiting the northern Highlands.
Tasty & Tipply
Whether you are a visitor to the area, or live locally, nothing beats the tantalising tastes of Highland Scotland. From whisky to beef, we’ve got some of the best world cuisine, right on our doorstep. Our No 1 Bistro has gone to considerable lengths to ensure the freshest local ingredients have been treated with talent and love to bring you a tasty, mouth-watering Highland menu which offers something for everyone.
From light lunches to delicious evening meals, the Bistro offers an appealing ambiance, quality service and exceptional culinary standards.
Finish your perfect day with an evening dram in our traditional bar where you’ll find excellent wines and speciality whiskies, some of which come from local distilleries and take their rightful place amongst the world's finest.
