Top Merkinch Hotel Reviews

The Glen Mhor Hotel and Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery

8/10 Good

"Nice welcoming staff. Great breakfast . Nice bar with friendly staff."

The Royal Highland Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was conveniently located near the center of town and everything you may wish to see in Inverness is just a few minute walk. There is minimal parking at the hotel, but the multi level city park is an easy 6 minute walk, even with roller bags. We would recommend staying there and if we come back, it will be our location of choice."

Tulloch Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Paul was amazing, we got in 15minutes before dining room closed and he took us straight there to get food before officially checking in. Steven was are server and excellent, always a smile and had story to tell us about the hotel and some of the history, he took us in some of the rooms that have haunting history to them. Rodney had a lot of history to tell us with some ghost stories in between, along with dungeon and dining room areas usually for large gatherings. The history was fantastic. Tulloch was by far the best hotel we were at on the 11 day trip."

Waverley Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Arrived late and luckily there was a staff member just leaving that phoned for us to save us the phone call (we only had a data phone plan). They had left our key in our unlocked room. Took a minute to find it under the coffee cup but then it was all good from there. Loved the street and area. So walkable. Great live music in the pubs."
