— John (Dysart, GB), June 19, 2009

Completely refurbished, this grand hotel has a great location in the heart of the city, yet on the quiet side of the river, with splendid views of the River Ness and Inverness Castle.

Inside its grand historic exterior, the Columba Hotel houses 76 fully refurbished, bright, airy, air conditioned rooms. Sensitively renovated, the hotel’s décor combines traditional comfort with contemporary style and amenities. All of the rooms feature high-standard modern facilities such as movies, music and radio on demand and high-speed wired and wireless internet access.

There are views from the front of the hotel looking out over the Ness and up to Inverness Castle. In the summer, you can look out over the beautiful floral decoration, which surrounds the Castle itself; in the winter, the trees which line Ness Walk are decked with fairy lights which shimmer on the water as the Ness flows towards the Moray Firth.

Hotel Rooms: 76. Hotel Chain: Oxford Hotels & Inns.
