When I booked this hotel the main amenity I was seeking was an on-premises bar and restaurant. Apparently at some point between my reservation and our trip the restaurant closed. This was highly which disappointing because it’s a bit of walk to the main city center. There are a few restaurants within a couple blocks but there hours of operation weren’t great either not opening until 7:30 and in some cases 9:00 a.m. We had two 8:00 am tours so it was really inconvenient that we couldn’t even get a continental breakfast. The “hotel” is basically a multi-unit Airbnb. Okay, but not what we expected. The room was spacious, quiet and clean.

Room was clean. It was very cold and couldn’t get heaters to work. Finally found someone who reset the breaker. Room seemed very quickly put together and cheap. Bathroom had a strange smell like construction/chemical smell?? We did enjoy the location.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel in the Crown area upper part of Inverness. A short walk to the main hub yet far enough away from the noise of the down town! A short 10 minute walk to shopping, restaurants, train station etc. beautiful historic building on the outside and modern in the inside! Very spacious room with seating and lovely bath.

Property was nicely renovated, our room still needed the bathroom done however and was a bit musty. There was little to no water pressure for the shower, depending what others in the hotel were doing as we were on the top floor. Otherwise, good value for money and very convenient location and easy parking.

Lovely building in a quiet area but easily walkable to the town centre. There’s a car park right at the hotel. Check in was in the bar area, which was fine, there’s no lift but there’s only a couple of floors anyway. No breakfast but we were already aware and happy to eat elsewhere. Room and en-suite were nice, room had a fridge which was great! We had plenty of towels. Only drawbacks were, bed was a bit creaky, and the bathroom could have done with a little shelf or worktop to set toiletries on. Also we only had the one toilet roll; as there’s no staff on reception and it wasn’t an emergency to warrant phoning about, late at night I had to pilfer one from the women’s toilets downstairs. Otherwise though, a great and peaceful stay!

The room was a tad shabby! Carpet was torn along the wall by the bed, shower wand kept sliding down the mast, and pressure was erratic. The sofa had stains and was dirty and the carpet could use a cleaning. The wallpaper was also tattered on the wall opposite the windows. Probably would NOT stay here again… The young lady at the Bar was nice but POORLY trained.

I was very disappointed with our stay. Although the hotel was a convenient location to the city center with a 10-20 minute walk to the river and restaurants the lack of service, cleanliness, and assistance was the worse we have ever had. We have traveled extensively
