Not the most popular Hotel in Inverness, but this is one of the few Hotels with a bar which will be filled with the locals on any night of the week.
One of the main reasons for this is the pool table area. There are 6 pool tables, as well as a dart board, and is the cheapest place in the city centre (well, it's 5 minutes walk from the centre) to play some games with your mates. It has a few screens around the main bar, as well as one main big screen, which is always popular on match day, despite the unfortunate placing of the screen next to the toilets causing some obscurred views. A warning to the green half of the old firm - the Chieftain tends of be dominated by Rangers fans on old firm day. Pies are also offered at half time on big matches.
A poker tournament is also played next door, in the Hotel's dinner area, on Sunday nights which brings in more punters. read more
