I loved staying at this hotel! The room is bigger than it looks in pictures. The staff were friendly. They have a cute seating area in the back to have some drinks. The view of the sea from our room was beautiful. I left the curtains open so I could wake up to the view. If we're ever back in Inverness, I would stay here again!

Fantastic food and very nice rooms. The staff were also great with the a special mention of the girl with the awesome pink hair - she was a great host! The food was great, we recommend the scallops, duck and venison dishes. We stayed in room 6 which was lovely and a really nice ensuite bathroom. Very quiet and slept well so can’t complain!

Lovely boutique style rooms in a gorgeous location with a terrific restaurant and bar on site. I’m so glad we stayed here. It was a perfect start to our visit to Scotland. Beautiful views over the water from the front porch of the hotel. Plenty of available parking. And a bus stop across the road from the hotel if you don’t want to drive. Beds were very comfortable. Blackout curtains genuinely darkened the room. Bathroom was very clean and well appointed. Huge fluffy towels. We would definitely stay here again.
