The room we had 308 was extremely hot and noisy from kitchen extraction fans.

Lovely hotel with great pool and spa area. Unfortunately, we did not sleep due to the noise from the floorboards from the room above us. It was very loud and could hear every step they were taking. The noise was the same in the hallway. There is very limited parking for the size of the hotel, they can give you a permit for a car park that is a further walk away. Overall a nice looking hotel but due to the lack of sleep I would not return.

Great location, great hotel
We stayed for one night and the hotel was in a perfect spot to everything. Shops, dining & pubs were all within a 5 minute walk from the hotel and the scenery from the front door was amazing! The hotel has a great restaurant and the breakfast buffet was fantastic!

Please refurbish me!
The hotel charges a lot of money and needs urgent refurbishment. My mattress was so worn out I sunk into the mattress. The showers are old and the pressure of water is minimal. The only thing going for the hotel is the staff who are really nice and attentive. Otherwise it needs an urgent modernization!

We had an amazing time in Inverness, thanks to the lovely team at Best Western. Ale at the front desk was so friendly and kind. She was able to book us into a last-minute room after our first accommodations at a different hotel fell through. The rooms were lovely, and provided great views of the river. The daily breakfast was a great add-on and had a beautiful view from the restaurant. We will gladly be back again!

Nice old-style hotel, very well maintained. We really liked the high ceiling, the archer in the room, beautiful stucco moldings, the feeling and atmosphere. In the morning, we enjoyed a tasty breakfast. The staff is kind and willing to help. We enjoyed our staying there.

Great hotel although be careful what type of room you book. It seems the standard rooms are in a b&b type property next door without the same amenities and quality of the main hotel. The hotel itself is lovely, great pool gym and spa, lovely bar and restaurant. Some of the staff are a little gruff on first impression but very friendly and professional.
