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!

    The town centre was reasonably accessible for dropped kerbs and pedestrian areas. Lots of places to eat with different cuisines. It is definitely the best place to be based for exploring the highlands with access to all points of the compass with road, rail and air connections.

    As a city girl (Glasgow) this was truly a breath of fresh air. I almost cried leaving because I had fallen in love with this small city. Everywhere you look there is little intricacies in the city, like gold leaf details on the pavements, walls and benches with installed artwork explaining the history of the place, hills and mountains everywhere you look. Ive been up again since, I love it so much. Its my genuine plan to move now to Inverness I love it that much.

    We originally booked outside of town at the old north hotel inn. We had a horrible experience with our checkin person who also was tending bar, she made us feel so uncomfortable and unwelcomed we left early the next morning and thankfully we booked the best western Inverness hotel which exceeded our expectations and was not much more than the Inn. Blessing in disguise, if we had a slightly better check-in experience at the original booking, we would’ve missed out on this fabulous hotel that overlooked Inverness castle and Loch Ness river. We love Inverness because of our experience at our second location. Thank goodness we left our original place of stay.

    Inverness is a very friendly, safe city to visit.

    Inverness is a very friendly, safe city to visit. The centre is quite compact so getting around it is easy on foot. Plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to choose from. Lovely walks from the hotel along the river. The Gellions is great for live music just across the river although there are plenty of bars with live music - Hootananny, Maccallums, Gunsmiths and the Highlander all within the centre. Coyotes and Revolution are great for food and the Rendezvous and Girvans are great cafes.

    A small but very charming city.

    A small but very charming city. After 3 days, we already knew the streets of the city center, could walk around, and reach our favorite café or restaurant without a map. Cute shops, and good restaurants. We didn't enter the cathedral because there was a £2 entrance fee, and we didn't have cash on hand. We also booked a 1-day tour and visited Clava Cairns, Culloden Battlefield, and Glen Affric - following in the footsteps of some of the locations that inspired the creators of the Outlander series. I highly recommend such a tour; it was a beautiful day, and we discovered places we wouldn't have been able to visit otherwise without such a tour or renting a car. Three days in Inverness (especially in winter) are more than enough. Have fun!

    We spent 3 days with Sergio, it was our first stay in Scotland. We wanted authenticity and we found it with our host. His house is old and full of history, far from the hotel rooms of the big impersonal chains. The breakfast is prepared according to our wishes and it is typically Scottish! The room fully met our expectations and we slept very well there. Sergio is an exceptional host, very kind, very available and with a very beautiful philosophy of life. It was a very nice meeting, a wonderful memory for us. Thanks again Sergio!

    We traveled all over Scotland on our holiday on the train so for that the location was perfect step out of station next step into the hotel. Room cosy it was advertised at, very small would be more realistic especially for the price we paid, if it had been £100 cheaper for the 3 nights we stayed i'd have been happy but it was the least value for money of all the 5 hotels we stayed in on our holiday, it was clean etc no issues there. We didn't eat in the hotel spent our food money in the local witherspoons pub.

    Beautiful house in a beautiful neighborhood. Easy, short walk to downtown. Great breakfast was included. Host family could not be nicer. They even picked me up when I got a bit turned around walking there from the train station! Inverness is a lovely city, very close to the Culloden Battlefield, the terrible aftermath of which is why so many Scots left Scotland for America, N. Ireland, etc. Well worth visiting!
