FAQs about hotels in Inverness








Gateway to the Highlands and Loch Ness

A jewel with historic buildings and charming streets, Inverness is surrounded by a typical Scottish Highland landscape. It is located 10 km from Loch Ness, along the mouth of the Ness River and the Moray Firth coast. It is regarded as the northernmost city in the United Kingdom, and capital of the Highlands.

Take a walk around the Old Town, visit St Andrew’s Cathedral, and make a stopover in the charming Victorian Market. The Old High St Stephen's Church is the oldest building in town, and has been a religious site since pre-Christian times.

The Inverness Castle overlooks the river and is nowadays the seat of the Sheriff Court. A hotel in Inverness city centre is ideal to enjoy the different cultural and recreational activities in town.

Watch the Atlantic salmon jumping out the river near the Ness Islands, and try to catch a glimpse of the famous monster of Loch Ness. The Cairngorms National Park is 40 km away, and Chanonry Point is the best spot to watch dolphins, just 24 km away.

Inverness hotels include a large offer of small, cosy guest houses, B&B’s, and rural cottages, allowing a closer contact with the nature. Don’t miss the Inverness accommodation deals on Booking.com!

    It’s a surprisingly small down that feels a bit empty in the day - mostly comes to life at night with all the live music in bars. For tourists, seems mostly a stopping point en route to Loch Ness rather than a destination of its own.

    The location is spot on. Parking a 5 minute walk away. Paid £60 extra to make it a triple room which meant a camp bed was placed in the room…not impressed, couldn’t sleep in it, had to share double bed.

    Easy to get to city whether travelling by road, rail, bus and air (air port slightly out of Inverness). We travelled by train and we had lunch in the Ash Restaurant next to the railway station as we had time to kill before we got into our apartment and food was excellent. We also visited the Palace hotel for afternoon tea which was also good. Plenty of eateries, pubs and shops

    Inverness is perfect for a holiday where you want to prioritize gentleness, quiet, & rest but balanced with time outdoors & access to general amenities (restaurants, pubs, historic sites, etc). Ease of access to the rest of the highlands (and numerous day tour options for the Isle of Skye) are a definite plus for those wanting to go further afield.

    Inverness is a lovely place and ideally situated to go off and explore Loch Ness. The city itself has plenty to see and do with some lovely eating and drinking establishments. The people were warm and friendly and it felt particularly safe when out walking at night. We were there to take part in the Etape Loch Ness which is a cycling challenge around the entire Loch Ness and up in to the mountains. It was perfectly organised and an event i'd thoroughly recommend doing. The walks along the river and around the small islands on the river are really lovely and you are ideally placed for exploring the beautiful countryside that surrounds Inverness.. we will definitely be going back again.

    This was probably our favourite place we've stayed in Scotland. It is an easy walk from the train station (Inverness is very walkable) and the apartment had everything we needed. There were lots of helpful notes around the apartment for the various things, a coffee machine (not a coffee drinker but others would find this amazing) and a washing machine. We did a reasonable amount of cooking and the apartment had all the utensils we needed. So cosy and the bed was huge.

Rooms are spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, every taste catered, be it fresh fruit salad, yogurt or porridge to a full cooked breakfast. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this cosy and comfortable guest house just 5 minutes walk from the centre of Inverness.

    The room was clean and cozy, especially the bathroom was pretty. Breakfast was really good as well. The location was perfect if you visit Scotland by car. It''s like a 10 min walk into the center of Inverness, which was perfect. Had really good drinks in a bar called Scotch & Rye. Def. would book again :) The B&B host recommended to go to Chanonry Point to see Dolphins and we really saw some there, it was amazing!

    The owner was there to serve breakfast every morning with a smile (even on a day he went to the ER- shows his dedication). Small table big breakfast was his mantra and it was true. The room was great. Large bed and comfy shower for my 6 foot 4 partner. That's hard to find in Scotland! We were a short drive from the city. I believe buses were available, but taxis were prompt and cheap. Very quiet location.

    Joyce and Alan were wonderful hosts. We felt very welcome and “at home”. They told us a lot about Scotland that we didn’t know and we also laughed a lot, which is always a good thing. The artwork (wall art and wood carvings of birds) is outstanding. Why not a perfect score? Nobody believes perfect scores. This is an honest review that you can believe. You won’t be disappointed. We certainly weren’t.

    The Chieftain was amazing. From the staff, to the room, to the pub, it was all a great experience. We have been bouncing around Scotland for a little over a week and my kids think Inverness was by far their favorite place. The Chieftain had a lot to do with that. Also, the Hop On-Hop Off bus tour has a stop right across the street!
