Great family run hotel. The room was spotless and Ian was very accommodating and provided early breakfast for us on both days as we had early departures. We would stay there again if we return to Inverness.

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.

Extremely pleasant and hospitable staff with old timey charm. While not an updated facility, it was clean and comfortable. The free breakfast service was an added perk. I would absolutely recommend it and would stay again should I return to Inverness.

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.
