This was a lovely cozy hotel with lots of different areas to relax. The service in the bar area was excellent and the breakfast was lovely too. We thoroughly enjoyed the pianist entertainment and the hotel really made an effort to create a lovely festive atmosphere. We booked 3 rooms and were put in the annexe. The double rooms on the first floor were lovely but the twin room on the second floor was rather pokey, dark, cold and dated and could do with renovating.

It was very comfy for one night - shower was very poor and could have done with more coffee biscuits and selection of herb teas
The Glenmoriston is a wonderful place to stay. The location is not only convenient, but it’s also right on the Ness River. The staff is amazingly helpful and attentive, the room was spotless, the bed and linens comfortable.
I highly recommend the place!
It was a great location in the heart of Inverness. The restaurant on site was incredible. The room was clean and comfortable. I definitely recommend this stay if you’re in the area.
The hotel is nice. There is bath ropes, a fan an iron in the room. The bed was comfortable. The location was great. However, we were so disappointed that there was no tea/coffee facilities in the room. A small kettle would have made a huge difference to our trip
Breakfast was delicious a good choice. Room clean but bathroom freezing even with heated towel rail. Tap very stiff and shower dual falling off. Only issue was very noisy on sat night due to function and we were in the separate building
Great home. Loved that there was a washer dryer albeit super slow. Area around was beautiful. Went for a run and it was gorgeous morning. Food was good and they were very accommodating with kids needs.
My stay was very pleasant. The hotel room was comfortable and quiet and the hotel had easy parking. The food was very good; I can recommend the Highland venison carpaccio and the Scottish cod fillet. The town was within easy walking distance with many places of interest. I can recommend The Hootananny bar for live music.
