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!

Inverness is a beautiful city.
Inverness is a beautiful city. Nice shopping streets and shops. Many nice restaurants with varied menu options. We recommend Aye Eats for the Scottish experience and food. Also, recommend House of Aran for shopping. Both are with in walking distance of our accommodation.

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.AAnonymousIraq - 4.0Scored 4.0
The location is spot on. Parking a 5 minute walk away.
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.DianneUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

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.Thompson - 10Scored 10

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.

- From US$565.72 per night9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 1,360 reviewsThe location, service levels at Reception, room facilities (eg size, hygiene etc) were to a very high standard. We booked a king room and suite, both were brilliant. We stayed at 5 different places on our trip to Scotland and this was by far the best hotel /service by all. Especially when you compare it to some of the so called 5* golf & spa resorts and hotels we stayed at. Well done Ness Walk and the team. This in our opinion should be classified as a boutique hotel.ArvinUnited Kingdom
- 9.7Scored 9.7ExceptionalRated exceptional· 103 reviewsHost was extremely welcoming, helpful and informative. The flat was scrupulously clean, exceptionally well equipped with everything you could need. The view from the lounge is stunning with beautiful sunsets on offer. The flat is conveniently located for exploring many areas in Scotland, but would also be great for holidays in and around Inverness. We stopped off on our way to the Western Isles but may stay longer and explore the area next time.
SusanUnited Kingdom - 8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 841 reviewsgreat little BnB, good location just off of the old town. A bit of a walk but not bad at all. check in process was so easy, they texted me the key code and had the room ready ahead of time. it was really nice to just walk in and unpack, take a short nap and head back into town. breakfast was pretty typical for BnBs in Scotland, good simple breakfast food both hot and cold. the ladies did a great job and were very pleasant.
ToddUnited States - 9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 467 reviewsJoyce 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.LorenUnited States
- 9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 360 reviewsFull Scottish breakfast was the best in Scotland and there were many other breakfast options. The host cooked a hot breakfast for us early in the morning before our reserved tour to the Isle of Skye. The host couple were very friendly and kind. They also allowed luggage storage after check-out. The room was clean and cosy. We also liked the host's list of recommendations in Inverness.ChaeYoungSouth Korea

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!
