"Great room, location, and restaurant. No complaint"

10.0

Very well kept room and bathroom. We stayed for two nights and it was a very nice room with a great restaurant down below which we were very bummed we couldn’t go more than once.

Wonderful hotel. Great stay. Only issue was the lack of an elevator. I knew it going in, but it was harder than I thought.

"Authentic room-above-a-pub experience!"

10.0

Fantastic experience. The rooms were right in the thick of downtown. Being above a well stocked pub also fulfilled my vacation wish list. You won’t be disappointed.

"Great room, but fix the hot water"

8.0

Great room, but the hot water situation was a problem…as in, there was no hot water first morning we were there. Also, lacking a secure location for luggage storage when we got there early. That said, room was great and the pub was quite good too.

I loved staying here, the location is great. It is about a five minute walk from the train station, and within walkable distance to the center shops, dinning, and great areas to site see. The room was beautiful and very clean, the bed was incredibly comfortable, the bathroom was very spacious and very nice! There was also a very stocked up welcome basket in the room. The staff was friendly and very helpful, and check in and out was quick and easy. Didn't try the food downstairs, but the drinks were delicious and the bar was very nice. I would definitely stay here again!!

Great place to stay. An authentic Public house. Short walk to the train station and bus station. Walkable to restaurants shops etc. downside of the location is it’s a bit noisy at night.

Traveling with kids can be complicated, but this stay was absolutely excellent. The rooms were both spacious and comfortable. The staff was friendly, attentive, and check in/out was a breeze. There’s no lift, so be prepared to carry luggage up the stairs.

This is the quaintest little hotel in the heart of Inverness. We were in Scotland for 11 days, and our 3 day stay at Blackfriar was the absolute best. 10/10 recommend.
