Good location right on the river. Near old town.

The property is on the river Ness, across from Inverness Castle and nearby multiple bars, restaurants, cafes, and a Tesco grocery store. Guest parking is available at no extra charge to guests. Staff are polite, and considerate of guests' needs. We made use of the pool and hot tub during our stay. They have an excellent hotel gym, spa, sauna, and steam room to boot. We would stay again!

Perfect location along the river. This hotel has luxe quality at an affordable price. Only complaint is that when there are several bus tours, the breakfast room is crowded & staff a bit overwhelmed. But don’t let that deter a stay here.

Hotel is in an excellent location. The room we had was overlooking the river and castle so we were very lucky. We were going to a show at the Eden Court theatre which was only a short walk away. My only criticism is the lack of parking for guests staying at the hotel.

Walking distance to city centre and Eden Court Could have done with a bigger bed but it looks like beds were being replaced as we left

Location was beautiful. Staff was friendly and helpful . Didn’t like no ac in room. Slept with out covers as too hot in room. Tower fan in room was not enough. Room smelled very musty. No easy access for plug in receptacles (had to move night tables to access. Pillows were very thin and uncomfortable. Definitely substandard room for advertised price. Will not recommend this hotel to others.

Stayed 2 nights in May 2025

Staff were very welcoming and helpful. The room large and well furnished. However, the shower room was far too small, and inconvenient to use. I am not abnormally large yet I had a problem getting into and out of the shower cubicle and sitting n the toilet was a squeeze, the basin small, and the toilet roll was on a stand in front of the mask basin! It was great to have a charging points for the electric car, but it was far too complex to operate. Such a shame in such a good hotel and great location.
