Inverness Hotels | Places to Stay in Inverness

August 6, 2022 Alida England

This compact Scottish city is perfect for exploration by foot — travelers can easily find their way from the lovely River Ness to historic Inverness Castle and St. Andrews Cathedral, and beyond to the events at Eden Court and the busy Victorian Market. It’s also an ideal base for exploring the Highlands, with the mysterious Loch Ness (and famed local resident Nessie), Culloden Battlefield and the Bronze Age Clava Cairns just a quick drive away.

Premier Inn in Inverness is a lovely hotel, staff very welcoming, rooms very clean. Breakfast was great no complaints regarding our four day stay. Let us leave our luggage as we arrived very early on the Caledonian Sleeper.

Quiet, Clean & comfortable

Reviewed By Weewards

I have stayed at Fairways before but not in the extension part. It was just as nice, if not quieter than the main building & the overnight stay left me refreshed ready for the day ahead. I dont take the breakfast option as there are cafes with hot food nearby although the pictures of the breakfast box look nice.

Perfect location and spa, but poor WiFi & a bit chaos

Reviewed By janinam398

The location for the hotel is perfect. You can walk straight into the town centre, perfect for shopping, food or a night out. There was lots of hassle with our booking and we had to compensate in the end. There was some work to be done on holiday unfortunately, but there was no WiFi. Not working. They tried fixing it, but ended up not getting back to us, so we ended up with no WiFi. The spa and pool are amazing. Don’t get me wrong, staff and hotel very nice, but for the price you pay, you can expect a bit more.

Watchout For the Shower!

Everything everyone says about this hotel is true. It's beautiful and well-staffed. The refurbished bathroom with their new fiberglass shower is the slipperiest I've ever encountered. Nearly impossible to maintain balance. be sure to put a hand towel down before climbing in. They didn’t supply a bathmat,

Premier Inn Inverness East hotel

Premier Inn Inverness East is perfectly located for work and play, just 8 miles from the airport and 1.5 miles from the vibrant city centre. From the ancient castle and historic buildings of the Old Town to the latest bands at Rockness and Belladrum festivals Inverness has entertainment for all ages. Come back to a delicious meal at our Brewers Fayre restaurant before relaxing in one of our new generation bedrooms and slumber- inducing, king-size Hypnos bed.

3rd of our Premier Inns

Reviewed By Alfiebear13

It’s clear PI can be a mixed bag. This hotel was by far the oldest of our trip and although refurbished, corridors are narrower, the air con is rubbish and the staff were less helpful than in smaller settings. That being said the window opened and there is easy access to other amenity. I think we would use another of the city’s PIs if back again.

Usually pay between £40/£65 this time was £120 and booked weeks in advance. Noisy room and pretty uncomfortable this time. Did not seem that busy to get such a poor room when your paying so much. Not impressed this time.

Ideal location for Loch ness and Inverness

Reviewed By beee1986

Stayed for one night after visiting loch ness. Room was spacious but windows couldn't be opened so the room was very hot. The room did have air con but couldn't keep on through the night due to the noise it made. Slight issue with the room which was resolved after the event with a partial refund. Idea location for visiting Inverness
