"Good"

4.0

The room was large with windows facing the castle and the location was great for what we wanted to see.

Confusing layout. Door to bathroom was hard to open and switch for the exhaust fan was on the ceiling. When we talked to staff, they were nice, but I think they are stretched too thin. A worn out look to the place. Really needs updating - paint, carpets etc. Bar and restaurant low end.

"Great hotel but staff could work on communication."

8.0

The location was perfect for us as we were in Inverness to connect to a Rabbies tour and the pickup location was around the corner from the hotel. Easy walking distance to main town. Beautiful walk along the river to Ness Islands.

The room was not available for the 3pm checkin time. We had arrived at 2pm and the hotel did store our bags but we still didn’t get into our room until 4pm. It was not clearly communicated that there would be a delay due to large tour groups using the hotel. One staff member in particular was not open about what was happening.

"Die Lage war gut, das Hotel ist nicht zu empfehlen."

3.0

Die Lage war gut, sehr zentral und doch ruhig.

Für ein, drei Sterne Hotel war die Ausstattung schlecht. Unser Zimmer hat einen sehr ungepflegten Eindruck gemacht, die Möbel waren sehr abgenutzt und es war feucht im Zimmer. In der ersten Nacht haben wir gefroren und für die zweite Nacht wollten wir eine Extradecke, die gab es aber leider nicht, man hat uns gesagt es gibt keine Extradecken im ganzen Hotel, wir waren geschockt, dass in einem drei Sternehotel so eine Aussage gemacht wird.

"Estancia sin confort por obsolescencia del Hotel y sus instalaciones."

4.0

La ubicación, ya que esta muy en el centro de la ciudad, con suficientes servicios de restauración próximos y algunos de alta calidad. Acceso rápido al castillo y zona céntrica Aunque no tiene parking, las facilidades en la zona Catedral y anexos lo hace razonablemente sencillo po 5 libras /dia

Hotel viejo sin actualización, poco mantenimiento ni inversión para el funcionamiento de manera eficiente Desayuno deficitario y escaso Poca confortabilidad. De nuevo Booking debe reflejar en su evaluación de la situación rea, no es un Hotel de 3 estrellas y los servicios, desayuno incluido no están a la altura. No repetiríamos.

"Book for the location only. Don’t expect much else."

5.0

The location was magical. Directly on the river and across from the castle. Right in the center of the old city and many fine restaurants and bars.

Despite reporting it had both a bar and a restaurant, both were closed the first night we were there due to “gas issues” and the restaurant itself was closed the second night also due to gas issues. Those whose bookings included the full breakfast (not us) were advised that only continental would be provided. Also the general overall state of the place was one of neglect.
