Get earplugs!
You need ear plugs if you are in the side of the bars.
Otherwise close to everything.

Comfortable and pleasant stay. However, overall, building along with rooms need to be renovated as its age and clear signs of deterioration could easily be seen.

Great location but very noisy at night
While the hotel is centrally located in the old part of town, unless you spend more to stay on the river side, you will likely not get much sleep. The hotel sits on one of the busier streets for nightlife, with clubs blasting music till 3 am. This made adjusting to the time difference extremely challenging as this was our first stop on our trip. Parking can also be tricky because of the location. The rooms, however, are clean and cute. The staff are super friendly. And the onsite restaurant was just what we needed after our long travel day. Perhaps we would have felt differently staying on the river side.

Well situated in centre of Inverness, compact room has bed access from one side only and overlooking the street it’s noisy at night. Staff were friendly and efficient.

Excellent location, alright overall
Check-in was extremely slow and not very friendly. Location is excellent - walking from the rail station. The room is good if you’re facing the river as there’s virtually no noise but it has no air con, you need to request a fan, hence it was a bit hot during the night ( it’s summer).
Breakfast caters for gluten and lactose intolerant but overall could be better.

Staying in city center Inverness.
The staff at this hotel are amazing-every one of them! The hotel is noisy. I moved to the river side on the third day. Lots of partying out side, very loud, most nights till 2 a.m. The rooms have been redone but are small. The river view is lovely. I was hoping for a quieter place. But the advantage of being in the heart of the city was great. I could walk to anything.
