High marks to experience life in former manor hous

Lovely historic home, now hotel, in a beautiful quiet neighborhood close to downtown. Breakfast was adequate and we enjoyed a cocktail in the bar the night before. The dinner menu looked delicious but we had already eaten. The room was dated but the bed and coverings were comfortable and the bathroom was clean and large. All staff interactions were very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful Hotel

The front desk staff were: warm, welcoming and helpful. The dining room and lounge area were gorgeous. We stayed in a junior suite which to my disappointment wasn’t in the main house and was in a newer building next to the main house. I was only slightly disappointed to not be in the main house/manor because our room was large and comfortable. I loved the bathroom and layout of the room. The location is also convenient to nearby sights and attractions. It was about 10 minutes away from downtown Inverness and it was easy to park in the hotel’s parking lot.

Time for a refurbishment?

Due to time of year (August), had to pay a premium to stay in Inverness for work. Have stayed in the hotel under previous ownership many times but dissapointed to see rooms have not changed at all. I stayed in one of the "Suites" in the outside wing. Same decor, same furniture, same carpets, same dated TV as when I stayed over 10 years ago. I realise you pay a premium for the time of year, but paying almost £250 a nights stay I would expect investment could be made in bringing the rooms up to a more modern standard.

Beautiful property and breakfast in the greenhouse. The rooms are comfortable and modernized in the garden building. The staff was kind, mostly in training. Parking is easy, and the surrounding area is refined suburban.

Lovely historical building (1870s) still in excellent repair, very nice room. Wonderful grounds to wander around. Pull the curtains AND the shades because the light still comes in. Very good meal in the hotel restaurant, excellent sourdough bread. Restaurant waitstaff was young and still in training. We received excellent advice on where we could do laundry in town.

This is a really nice hotel and it had everything we expected in Inverness. Cozy and accomodating to our needs. We traveled with kids and most relevant of all was the presence of Molly, a pet whose owner worked at the reception, an extremely nice pet that made our kids happy playing fetch in the greener grass ever and on a superb weather. Breakfast was very good. We got there a little late the night before, having to travel long hours to know Scotland's highland, yet the cheff was kind enough to stay longer to be able to serve our family some dinner. Being an Outlander fan I found that "Jimy Fraser" stayed in the room nest to mine, culliden and clava cairns was really closed to the hotel, which made it easier to complete my list of places to viait. I recommend thia hotel with eyes closed, you will not regret it.
