Loch Ness Clansman Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Parfait pour une nuit et à quelques pas de la croisière sur le Loch Ness."

Loch Ness Drumnadrochit Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Shower was either hot of scalding & to o difficult to get right, just a trickle no power, it was awful! Tiny room. Restaurant way overpriced. Only good thing was the very helpful parking lot attendant who was helpful & great. Not a good experience for me, outlook onto gravel & loads of weeds. Would not stay there again! Do not recommend!"

B&B HOTEL Inverness

6/10 Okay

"When we arrived I told the reception desk that we would like to have the room made up daily. The manager at that time was on a ladder changing some light bulbs. When we got to the room the asset was locked and we could not use it. Went back down to the front desk to ask for help. The receptionist came up about 10 mins later to tell me she didn’t know what to do and would put in a claim to get it repaired. I asked my son whose room was across the hall if his worked. He said no. The next morning about 6:15am the fire alarm went off. We took the stairs to the main floor and asked what happened. They told us that there was some equipment that had not been cleaned and it went off while breakfast was being cooked. Went to get in the shower only to find out the dispenser on the wall was empty. Reported this to the front desk and left for the day. When we returned after dinner our room had not been made up. I went down to let the receptionist know it had not been done. There is no AC in this hotel and the rooms are extremely stuffy. We asked the front desk for fans and explained that in our sons room a pidgeon had tried to get in the window. The receptionist implied that we just had bad karma. We were here for four nights and were not able to get more than 5 hours of sleep each night because with the windows open and the fan going there was just too much noise from the street to fall asleep until the street noise quieted down. I would not recommend this hotel."

Premier Inn Inverness Centre - River Ness

6/10 Okay

"This hotel is like a Super 8 in USA. Cheap furniture etc. Receptionist was missing when we showed up. There was a machine that claimed to check people in so we started putting in our information etc and it just won’t do anything. Finally, the receptionist showed up and claimed that machine didn’t work. He checked us in. We paid almost $350 a night for the room, and felt it was too expensive for what we got."
