Needs a lot of Improvement
Right in the middle of Inverness, close to everything. But other than that, it was all a waste. Room not properly cleaned, staff could have been more welcoming. Breakfast was fine though, buffet options were enough and I like the fact you can choose what hot meal you want to be cooked instead of choosing western or the full English breakfast.

Perfect Find
This hotel was perfect for a last minute, one night trip to Inverness. Centrally located next to the bus and train station, we were able to store our bags until our room was ready. The room was small but quiet and functional, with a large bathroom and rainfall shower. The front desk staff was friendly.

Great hotel but needs some improvements
Overall we had a good stay there. The hotel's decorations are classy. There was a free pool table and flavored water, nearby restaurants, cafes and malls (including East Gate and Victorian Market) etc.
Issues-
- the toilet could and did flood because of the design of the shower
- shower head was leaking
- the mattress was a bit soft for my liking
- our personal bottle of hair conditioner was removed from the toilet (returned after asking)
- pillows promised were not provided until we asked twice
- TP not replenished
- need to park a few minutes away

Extremely close to bus and train stations. Within walking distance to shopping, dining, and sightseeing. Rooms are small but clean. Would stay there again due to close proximity to transportation. Did not eat there, but there are good pubs within a block of this hotel.

Easy, easy walking distance from the train station and a main, local bus station. Lots of food and shopping all close by. Breakfast buffet was really good. The room was a good size and the beds comfortable. The shower wasn't my favorite as it only had a quarter wall so was too easy to get water everywhere.

We had a great stay at the B & B hotel. Our room was comfortable and accessible.
The morning's breakfast had so many options and was so yummy! We also appreciated the lounge/bar being open late, as we had a late arrival.
The property was convenient to food and shopping areas and we would recommend staying there.
