The glen itself is breathtaking and serendipitous, you won't hear anything except for the sheep, the birds and the odd car. The rooms are well furnished, the bed was comfortable and cozy, the showers are sparkling clean and packed with soaps, shampoos and lotions, and the water pressure is amazing, something not to be taken for granted in B&Bs. The full Scottish breakfast is, indeed, quite full. You get free-range eggs from the local hens, sausages and black pudding from the local butcher, jams, juices, fruit, yoghurt - everything you could think of. All in all, a great place to stay for a night or a few.

The best think at the beginning, the location of the Villa is quite near to the town centre of…read moreInverness and in general there are enough parking spaces available on the street. The Villa itself, no Breakfast available, is not very comfortable as no rooms apart from the bedroom will be provided. The room is quite small, not nice and not very orderly. The bathroom is also small and spoiled. So especially in regard to the price I cannot recommend the Villa.

I came across the National Hotel when I took my grandmother out for a meal one Sunday. She…read moresuggested it, and I'm glad that she did. It was easy to park, as there is a car park behind the hotel, and it was easy to get in and to find a seat. They have a dining area, as well as the bar for bar meals. The decor is alright, nothing fancy, but it is clean and well kept. The staff are lovely, very nice, and chirpy. Will chat away with no problems. The portions of the meals you receive is a fair size, value for money, and are delicious. All the produce is local. I never normally take haggis when i'm out, but boy there haggis was out of this world, with a beautiful whiskey sauce. I loved it. The National Hotel is very popular and has many functions here, from weddings, birthday and engagement parties, to funeral teas. The service is outstanding, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

It's a quick walk into the middle of everything, but just far enough away that you don't hear everything. After a quick chat with the owner, it sounds like there are more good things around the corner for the Alexander. I hope to be back in Inverness in future and will be delighted to stay again.

She told us we had the wrong address and basically said get lost and shut the door. We stayed briefly on her porch just to check our phones for the correct address and she made a point to come to the window and "shoo" us away. How rude! And unnecessary. Hospitality is clearly lacking. Luckily, her neighbour's place is incredible: check out Ach Aluinn.

We talked poor Mrs. Caldwell's ear off over breakfast but she took it like a champ without even one complaint.

They'll straighten your bed for you and you may have a moment of embarrassment if, like us, you rush out in the morning leaving your things a mess. I would choose Amulree every time if we were to go back to Inverness.

I was looking for a hotel in the Highlands not far from Inverness and on way to Ullapool and I…read morefound it. Prices vary, such best to call the hotel and get quotations. You will always pay more when asking for a double room for single occupancy, but sometimes there can be good deals. The driveway to the hotel and the entrance itself are amazing to look at. You feel like you are entering the world of the privileged during the time of Queen Victoria. Strathpepper is an old Victorian Spa town and has been a gathering point for many noble families and the rich. Nowadays its only a shell of its former selve. But still, its worth the visit and I assume that Ben Wyvis Hotel was once one of its kind. Nowadays it needs a complete make over. Having said this, people return to this place, because of its Victorian charm. I felt the carpet in the public area needs replacing, the rooms some decorating (especially the bathrooms) and the ceilings a lot of paint to cover up the cracks. As you are in the middle of nowhere its a good idea to eat in the hotel. I was informed at the reception that their restaurant is fully booked in the evening, but when I turned up at my given time, the dining hall was half empty. I found out that they were understaffed and people off sick. I ordered a three course dinner and must confess that the quality was quite good and I would definitely go back just to dine there. Afterwards you could retreat to the lounge and enjoy a tea or coffee. I met some people in the hotel, such it was a very pleasant evening to remember. When I had ordered a gin tonic the staff could not find certain ingredients and it took them a long time to make me the drink, especially because I was their only customer in the lounge. Having said this, I got it for free. How kind :-) My room and bathroom were old fashioned and the fire doors closing and opening during the night totally interrupted my sleep. The TV was ancient. At least it was quiet in my room on occasion and I needed not to worry about ghosts, or did I ? :-) Would I go back? Yes maybe, but then I would try to get a room in the front building with awesome views towards Ben Wyvis.

There, the Ben Wyvis offers lots of rooms, a quick food service operation and photogenic main rooms and grounds. That's why it's a favorite of motorcoach tours. Behind the classic exterior it's less satisfying. The rooms need investment. Fixtures are old, windows have no screens and TVs are tiny. There's no concierge and services in general are lacking. If you want breakfast, dinner and a room, it's okay. A grand hotel it's not.
