We stayed there at a particularly hot period. As the building has no air conditioning, the windows had to stay open. Our room was opposite the main street and the noise from outside goes into the early hours of the morning. Earplugs were required. No fridge or safe was provided in the room. The hotel is in a great location within walking distance of many restaurants and shops. The car park was large enough for us to always get a paid parking spot.

Excellent location, alright overall

Check-in was extremely slow and not very friendly. Location is excellent - walking from the rail station. The room is good if you’re facing the river as there’s virtually no noise but it has no air con, you need to request a fan, hence it was a bit hot during the night ( it’s summer). Breakfast caters for gluten and lactose intolerant but overall could be better.

Double bed was against wall. Only one chair. Notice in bathroom saying floor and shower get slippery when wet, but you had to ask for a mat - presumably once you had fallen!!! no handrail in shower area.

Nice staff, great location, had some issue with hot water in the bathroom. We were told afterwards that there is trick to make the hot water appear but were not told at check-in so we were not able to shower… Nice breakfast and very nice staff

Staying in city center Inverness.

The staff at this hotel are amazing-every one of them! The hotel is noisy. I moved to the river side on the third day. Lots of partying out side, very loud, most nights till 2 a.m. The rooms have been redone but are small. The river view is lovely. I was hoping for a quieter place. But the advantage of being in the heart of the city was great. I could walk to anything.
