Cute place in Inverness

Super cute little room. Close to town, everything was easily walkable. Not very dark at night in the summer, bring an eye mask.

Convenient location, excellent rooms

Alban and Abbey House proved to be an excellent choice for two nights in Inverness. It is an easy walk from the centre of town, and has ample parking. The area is very quiet. The rooms are clean and extremely well-appointed, and everything worked as it should. Note that check in and key collection is at a different property a few blocks away.

There was bed and bathroom and the room was clean. The room had nearly no storage or hanging possibilities. However, it was very easy to park and it's just a few minutes walk to the center of the city. The area seemed safe and cozy.

Absolutely beautiful property. Very clean. Excellent service. Our only complaint was our room was next to the “smoking station” so we could not enjoy opening our windows without smelling cigarette smoke and listening to loud conversations.

No front desk at the location

The room was a bit small but clean. A little further to downtown Inverness that we expected. One negative was you have to go to a different location to get your room key , not very practical.

Firstly, be aware that check in is not actually at this property. You need to walk up the road, approx 5min walk, to another property. Secondly, I found it frustrating and disappointing that i had booked with 'pay at property' as my payment option, but they tried to process the payment a few days beforehand. Meaning it would be an unauthorised use of my card details stored in Expedia. Moving on to the room, we had the family room, which was an add on out the back. It was spacious and the shower had great pressure. Probably good being separated from the main building when you have children. Theres no excessive noise through walls to wake them up for early nights. This room also was accessible friendly. Breakfast not an option. They only offer breakfast to people staying in the reception property. Staff, i didn't find warm and welcoming. More dry and like our check in was an inconvenience. For the reception team, please remember that this is your customers first time visiting you. You might have heard the same questions and concerns many times, but this is their first experience. In saying that, this was my in person experience. I had a lovely exchange via email with Wayne. Wayne sent through some great recommendations, even without prompting and resolved the payment issue quickly without further stress.

Really good

Check in easy. Short walk to property. Lovely room, spacious, comfortable and very very clean (NO DUST AT ALL). Housekeeping deserve a pay rise. Never stayed anywhere as clean. Negatives…. Bedroom door sticks a bit so you have to push quite hard, perhaps shave a little off door to make it easier. Floorboards in room above very creaky. But not that big an issue. So overall, much more positive than negative. Would definitely stay again.
