1. Fishers Cottage

Inverness

"This place is amazing! The cottage is so lovely, has everything you need and there was even a little welcome basket of coffee and snacks for us! The kids had the best time playing on the beach! We are so happy we chose to stay here. A short drive to inverness and located the cutest little village. If you stay here go to the cheese pantry! We had the most amazing stay with our family including 3 little kids! Also the most amazing sunsets! We literally would live here if we could!"

Top Ardersier Hotel Reviews

Recent Reviews in Ardersier

Tulloch Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"Fun adventure. Loved the connection with the Davidson museum. Bartender was wonderful and full of fun knowledge."

Beaufort Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean, boutique hotel. The room was small as expected. The highlight was the bar which gave us somewhere to relax at the end of the day. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly, but they are stretched thin. At night, one person managed the registration desk and the bar. In the morning, I think it was 1 or 2 people managing breakfast and the registration desk (not counting maintenance and kitchen staff). The staff was friendly, but not necessarily knowledgeable about common tourist destinations."

Glenmoriston Townhouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Gorgeous hotel. I stayed in one of the apartments. Nice and modern feel, very clean. Staff went out of their way to help with any issues that arose. Great location, just across from the theatre which was fab."

The Highland Hotel by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"Was a great hotel. If you get chance get there early to explore the town. Its very beautiful. My only criticism is I wasn't sure where to park and parked by the front of hotel on waste ground. Go around the Hotel and there is a carpark around the side. It has limited spaces but I was unaware of it. The evening meal and breakfast was of good standard and the staff were very helpful and friendly. May stop there on way back from visiting the Highlands in a few months time."

Waverley Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The host informed us upon arrival there was an issue for our room. However, they relocated us to a second location that was very nice. If we wanted the complimentary breakfast we had to go back to the original location. Would’ve been nice to get a credit instead. Otherwise great location to local restaurants and tourist activities"

B&B HOTEL Inverness

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic location. Helpful staff. The place is blocks from the train station and the bus station. The rooms were comfortable."

Mercure Inverness Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had an enjoyable stay. The hotel is very central so convenient for city centre amenities. It is however very close to a lot of the bars and pubs, so if you don’t want to be disturbed at night choose a river view room which are at the back of the hotel. We found the staff very friendly and helpful and the room was very clean."

Lochardil House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay. Great restaurant and staff"

Kingsmills Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel. We stayed in the new side of the property. Overall everyone was lovely , my only knock on the staff was they didn’t inform us that check in was in the other building. We were waiting for our room to be ready in the main building"
