Room was okay- but for the price it was a let down. Breakfast was some cornflakes, yogurt and canned fruit - poor. Bar was uninviting with limited beer options. Parking was only available at the garage a few blocks away. Staff seemed mostly looking forward to having their shift end. Must be better options.

We had a wonderful stay at Black Friars! Our room was very spacious and comfortable and we heard no noise from the pub or street below. It is very conveniently located in downtown Inverness, just a few minutes' walk from the train station, and very close to the river and the shops. The pub below is great and has very nice staff and tasty food. We would absolutely stay again if and when we return to the area!

Didn’t sleep for two days because the floor boards are very noisy. You can hear everyone around you at 430 am. Otherwise nice place.

Just a few blocks from pedestrian shopping street. Lovely town. No elevator. Convenient eating since it’s above a restaurant.

Must park off site and walk from parking garage with your luggage to the property which is a challenge in the weather and with children in tow. The rooms themselves were nice and large for a family and very quiet for a city center room.
