We had a great welcome. Very happy with our room. Comfortable and quiet. Not a lot of dining options so reservations are recommended unless you want some yummy pizza. It’s close by and was so tasty! Breakfast at the Inn was excellent. Many great options. We’re loved that the inn was only a 5 minute drive from the Urquhart Castle.

The Loch Ness Inn was a lovely and cozy place to stay while we were in the Highlands. The restaurant is world class! The food there is absolutely delicious! The location was great for exploring the local environment: the Loch Ness Centre, the castle ruins, and hiking trails to waterfalls and Craig are all within walking distance.

The Loch Ness inn was really amazing for our short stay in Drumnadochit! The free breakfast was probably the best we’ve ever had at any stay and the rooms were cute and comfortable! Would also like to give a big thanks to Oscar, who carried my friends luggage up the stairs and made sure that we were comfortable with our accommodation and overall just went above and beyond!

This hotel had lots of charm and was a convenient stop for our stay in Inverness. The food in the restaurant was delicious and artfully presented, and the pub was a great place for a nightcap. The room was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this property for future travelers.
