Pros
Home to Inverness's largest whisky collection with over 260 rare malts
Live piano performances on weekends in the elegant bar
Private patio gardens for apartment guests
Dry-aging facility for premium beef on-site
Cons
Comfort category rooms are compact in size
Some rooms lack river views
“The hotel's riverside setting certainly places it well for exploring Inverness. Though some may find the rooms a touch dated, there's undeniable charm in a place with such a wide selection of whiskies. I appreciate the hotel's offer of self-contained apartments, an interesting touch for a city-center stay.”
