Brilliant hotel right from train station nice area for shop pubs and they have a lovely bar great pint walk to river side hotel 5star
Irene, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Having stayed there on several occasions and looking forward to returning soon I am quite happy to recommend this hotel
Len, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel is just outdated - carpets could use a deep clean, shower grout needed some upkeep and some of the wall paper is coming off due to age. The staff is friendly and this hotel is centrally located.
Dana, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Charming hotel! Easy to get around town from the hotel and the staff were wonderful!
Mariena, 2-night trip

We always stay at the Royal Highland. It's a beautiful old hotel right in the middle of Inverness.

A grand hotel, slightly worn
This has always been a nice hotel to stay in, very central in Inverness and right alongside the railway station (which is why I use it, as a resident elsewhere in the Highlands). It was grand once, and they are working hard to keep it in good condition, but it has a slightly worn feel, with signs of damp around the shower for example. However, the bed was comfortable, there was tea and coffee making facilities with complimentary biscuits, and a good quality TV. It was a welcome respite after a long, disrupted rail journey from London!
Michael, 1-night trip

Historic hotel historic rooms
The hotel is a historic building and undoubtedly shows its age, at least in the room I had. I had a cosy room on the 3rd floor which was exactly that, cosy, but did the job. Hotel location is excellent right by the train station

It’s right next to the train station, so it can’t get much better than that. The room is cozy and comfortable.
Sarina, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Great shower, big room, comfy beds, extra pillows....next door to train station which is why we booked it.
Heather, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid. Worst service.
Due to a problem with the rooms they were unable to fulfil our booking - which we only then discovered on arrival. We were moved to a far inferior hotel with no offer of a refund of the difference. Awful service.
Gary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very classic looking building loved the interior
trevor, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The helpful staff and the cleanliness and top marks for the lady on the desk when I got in off the 20'08 train.
Roy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Station
A wonderful old hotel, so convenient for public transport users, especially the train. Well that was why it was built. It would always be my first choice of places in Inverness. If you wish to be negative you could say finding the upper rooms is not straightforward. To me, that's a great characteristic - you may find yourself coming down by the right or left side of the wonderful staircase - it's very bonnie.
Bryan, 1-night trip

Great location adjacent to station. Full of character. Quiet cozy room. Staff friendly and efficient.
