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.

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!

Many of the hotel rooms are in the basement. Rooms are very small and walls paper thin. Could hear the people and TV on the other side. Very expensive stay. You are better to stay in Old Edinburgh for restaurants and shopping for the price of this hotel.

Our stay was very, very nice. Our room overlooked the river, and was bright and sunny. Front desk staff was very accommodating and met all our needs. My only suggestion is that since there are so many elderly people touring there, that you install safety grab bars in the shower at waist height. Otherwise our stay was fantastic!
