Don't be put off by the musty smell in the foyer when you enter. It is an old building, but full of charm. Our room was impecably clean with a super comfy bed, elec kettle with tea and coffee and a few lovely biscuits! When the pubs in the area close it can be a bit noisy but bring your earplugs and you'll be fine! Unfortunately we had to leave on our tours early each morning so didn't get to experience the full breakfast provided in a lovely dining room. However Ian was very accommodating and provided us with everything we needed for a cold breakfast- fruit, croissants, and energy bars.

This hotel is right on Church Street and right in the middle of all the shops, pubs, etc. The owner was absolutely fantastic and so accommodating. We left very early for Edinburgh and he left out a kettle to make coffee, toaster, bread, cereals and other snacks because we were missing the breakfast that was included in the price.

This is a family run property with owners who are very helpful and friendly. Breakfasts were delicious. The property is older, located in the historic downtown area of Inverness, very convenient to the railway station, bus lines, tourist facilities and many nearby restaurants, including several with live music. Our room was large and had a very recently renovated bathroom, opening windows and comfortable beds. The only disadvantage was the lack of an elevator.
