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!

    I stayed there as part of my 3-day Isle of Skye tour, and I couldn't have asked for a better place for stops. Inverness is a quaint, small city with lots to offer. I was traveling with my partner and he had the same impression. We found the best place for pizza and whiskeys (Black Isle Bar & Rooms) with rooftop 'secret garden', and large selection of beers on tap! Strolling along the River Ness during sunsets is a charming experience, and we'd definitely love to visit this place again :)

    It's a lovely town with plenty to see. It's also ideally placed for visiting the surrounding sights and attractions. We visited Leakey's Bookshop - brilliant place. Also visit, Loch Ness and Urquhart Castle, |Culloden is a must see as well. Also well worth a visit is the Dores Inn where you can enjoy a delicious fish tea. Do have a stroll along the beach there where you get magnificent views up the loch.

    Due to shortage in staff our room wasn't cleaned daily. We had booked a dog friendly stay and was told our dog could be everywhere with us, however not at breakfast as we were asked to leave, very disappointing as we have stayed in a holiday express in Doncaster and could take our dog everywhere

    Loved everything about Inverness!

    Loved everything about Inverness! Being just north of Loch Ness was fun and the day trip to the Isle of Skye and Portree was beautiful. Weather cooperated too. We enjoyed our entire trip. London, Cambridge, Isle of Man, Dublin, Kilkenny, Galway, Edinburgh and finished off our trip in Inverness and wouldn't have had it any other way! We selected the perfect time of year for this trip, May 16 - June 7. It was a little cold & rainy but overall the temperatures were perfect. We prefer 60 degree to low 70 degree temperatures. And zero smidges to contend with!

    My family and I had a very cosy room with all amenities that you can think of. Russell, the owner gave us a lot of useful insider information about Inverness and Scotland in general. In the morning he provided us a fabulous breakfast according to our wishes. Our room had a private bath and everything was absolutely clean. The beds were very comfortable so that we wanted to stay longer in this cosy home. When we come back to Inverness we will definitely stay there again. Thank you so much Ellen and Russell!!!!!

    John was an amazing host. He was friendly and informative. The breakfast cooked by himself was amazing. It was customised and included eggs by his own chicken! The two ladies serving us were kind and smiley. Location is very convenient and close to the city center. PS we made a 10-day road trip to Scotland, staying in 5 different accommodations. This was the best hotel we visited!
