"Na"

B&B HOTEL Inverness

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was 1st class from check-in to check/out. There was no Bacardi available on our first night at the bar but by lunchtime next day a litre bottle was sitting there with my name on it!!!!!’ Great service from a great staff."

Beaufort Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great start to a wonderful vacation. Location is a quick walk to High Street. The bathtub in the Royal Suite was a great way to relax after a long flight."

The Glen Mhor Hotel and Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery

8/10 Good

"This property is in an awesome location! Directly on the river Ness. Charming neighborhood, staff very friendly and helpful. Only reason not 5 star across the board is the lack of provided toiletries (hair care products) and the distillery’s lack of brand products. Were told they not yet producing whisky? Anyway, the breakfast was amazing and overall experience was excellent!"
