Top Castle Stuart Hotel Reviews

Kingsmills Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here many times 10/10"

B&B HOTEL Inverness

8/10 Good

"Pillows were very hard and uncomfortable, caused me sore neck every morning. Room was too warm - even for end of September, with window crack open (as much at it can be opened)."

Waverley Guest House

8/10 Good

"I give this property a solid 4 in its class. That is to say an older, affordable walk-up in the city centre and near the train station. They could renovate, modernize and charge triple the rate. I had to depart before the complimentary breakfast was served but it looked plentiful and fresh. If you’re looking for basic overnight accommodation then this should suit."

The Glen Mhor Hotel and Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel along the River Ness! Our room had its own living room w tv, cozy chairs and a view of the river. Comfortable beds and large shower. Perfect location. Walking distance to Inverness castle experience, Victorian market, shopping etc. Great walking path around River Ness out your front door. Hotel had its own brewery and distillery on site. So feet from whiskey and beer!! Win win!! They also have a full restaurant. Would highly recommend"
