Drumossie is my hotel of choice in Inverness. Staff are welcoming and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and good, quality, dining is available on site. Parking is no problem and access to the city centre takes only a few minutes. A little note for management: on this occasion, I was disappointed that there was no tea or coffee available in my room and I had to collect some from reception and in the morning, there was no hot water in the shower at 07:00, despite running it at full heat for 10 minutes prior to going in. I should stress that this is highly unusual for the hotel and staff were very understanding, but it would still have been nice if these facilities had been in place. That said, the Drumossie remains the number one choice in Inverness and I would recommend it to anyone intending to stay in the city.

Drumossie has all the features that make a city stay worthwhile, with quiet surroundings and comfortable rooms, but easy and convenient access to the town itself. Highly recommended.

Hotel of choice for Inverness, Quiet and secluded with ample parking space. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed. High quality catering though a more varied dinner menu would be good. Anyone staying more than one night will find it repetitive. Top quality breakfast but again, a limited range of choices. Last three stays, I have not had a functioning desk light which poses restrictions on anyone with paperwork to attend to of an evening. These minor hurdles aside, this is still the best hotel in town.

We (4 adults and 2 children) stayed in the hotel for 3 nights and reserved 2 rooms. Both rooms had black mold in the shower and a spider web in the corner of the rooms and a ceiling. The hotel had no hot water the first day and when we addressed the issue, we were told the plumber will fix it. We left for the whole day and when we came back there was still no hot water, and the water pressure in the shower was terrible. We could not even take a shower that day. The internet that the hotel provided is terrible and we had no internet for 3 days, and we did notify the front desk staff. One of the rooms was only cleaned once during our stay, while the other one was cleaned every day. The second time the room was cleaned the housekeeper did not leave any soaps for us that they did leave before in a small bottles. The staff of the hotel was nice and friendly. The breakfast was simple but good and £15 upon check in and £20 if you did not get it upon checking in. And you would need to order hot food from the menu and wait until the staff brings it over, as it was not set up all you can eat buffet. Overall it was a nice hotel, clean and staff was very nice. I arrived 5 minutes before breakfast ended and the staff was accommodating by providing take out plates for guests that stayed up in the room.

Beautiful property in an easy to access location close to Inverness. The room was really spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. I had a great sleep. The only minor issue I had was the water wasn’t very hot. The shower was warm enough to shower in when turned up to the highest temperature but much cooler than I’d have liked. Breakfast was delicious and staff very friendly and attentive. Would definitely stay again
