“I see a modern hotel, where the bar functions as the reception, setting a casual tone. The décor attempts a blend of local and modern styles, a theme that extends to the rooms themselves, offering a measure of customization. It's a pet-friendly base for exploring Inverness and the Highlands, especially suited to travelers who prioritize affordability and a social atmosphere.”

The hotel is in the city center, close to everything. The staff were friendly at reception. I found the room clean upon arrival, which I appreciated.

The hotel beer was too expensive for the type of hotel. Breakfast cost a lot, about £15. The cooked breakfast looked cold, it did not seem to have a hotplate beneath.
