Redcliffe Hotel, hotel in Inverness

In the heart of historic Inverness, just 2 minutes’ walk from the castle and the riverside, the Redcliffe Hotel offers free parking on site.

Great location. The restaurant has a lovely ambience and my vegetarian evening meal (a curry) was absolutely delicious. There is a reasonable choice for vegetarians on the dinner menu. I really appreciated how considerate the staff were in allocating me a quiet table in a corner as I was eating alone.

Macdonald Drumossie Hotel Inverness, hotel in Inverness

Set in 9 acres of private parkland, in the heart of the Highlands, Macdonald Drumossie Hotel is only 10 minutes’ drive from the centre of Inverness and has free parking.

A beautiful property which was built decades ago and renovated in the recent past. Hotel is nice, about 10 min drive away from the centre of Inverness city. It is beautifully located in a picturesque locality. has a very nice large lounge. Ample free parking was a bonus. Rooms were big, airy, bright and comfortable for our family of 4. Breakfast spread was limited but definitely enough. A big shout out to the efficient ladies at the breakfast who ensured that we had made to order eggs, pancakes and also vegan sausages for my mother. It is a good property for wedding events and other gatherings with a golf course right next door. Some of the historic sites are a short drive away.

FAQs about hotels in Inverness







Gateway to the Highlands and Loch Ness

A jewel with historic buildings and charming streets, Inverness is surrounded by a typical Scottish Highland landscape. It is located 10 km from Loch Ness, along the mouth of the Ness River and the Moray Firth coast. It is regarded as the northernmost city in the United Kingdom, and capital of the Highlands.

Take a walk around the Old Town, visit St Andrew’s Cathedral, and make a stopover in the charming Victorian Market. The Old High St Stephen's Church is the oldest building in town, and has been a religious site since pre-Christian times.

The Inverness Castle overlooks the river and is nowadays the seat of the Sheriff Court. A hotel in Inverness city centre is ideal to enjoy the different cultural and recreational activities in town.

Watch the Atlantic salmon jumping out the river near the Ness Islands, and try to catch a glimpse of the famous monster of Loch Ness. The Cairngorms National Park is 40 km away, and Chanonry Point is the best spot to watch dolphins, just 24 km away.

Inverness hotels include a large offer of small, cosy guest houses, B&B’s, and rural cottages, allowing a closer contact with the nature. Don’t miss the Inverness accommodation deals on Booking.com!

    Inverness is a major city in Northern Scotland, and, as such has many and varied facilities. Plenty of opportunities to eat out, or just enjoy a drink. The people we met were friendly and helpful. Our favourite places were the Inverness Botanical Gardens and the Falls of Foyers, (which are about 15 miles away)

    Lovely city with some really beautiful parts.

    Lovely city with some really beautiful parts. Clearly a seedy side (there was a major assault not 50m from our door on one night!), which is true of any city, but Inverness is small enough for it to feel cheek by jowl with the nicer parts. Great range of places to eat and things to do. Easily walkable to everywhere.

    It’s a surprisingly small down that feels a bit empty in the day - mostly comes to life at night with all the live music in bars. For tourists, seems mostly a stopping point en route to Loch Ness rather than a destination of its own.

    Easy to get to city whether travelling by road, rail, bus and air (air port slightly out of Inverness). We travelled by train and we had lunch in the Ash Restaurant next to the railway station as we had time to kill before we got into our apartment and food was excellent. We also visited the Palace hotel for afternoon tea which was also good. Plenty of eateries, pubs and shops

    We traveled all over Scotland on our holiday on the train so for that the location was perfect step out of station next step into the hotel. Room cosy it was advertised at, very small would be more realistic especially for the price we paid, if it had been £100 cheaper for the 3 nights we stayed i'd have been happy but it was the least value for money of all the 5 hotels we stayed in on our holiday, it was clean etc no issues there. We didn't eat in the hotel spent our food money in the local witherspoons pub.

    this place was perfect. it was a 5 minute drive (if that) into Inverness. everything about the place was fantastic. it was clean, spacious, cute, and nice. it was the best place we stayed in our two week trip to Scotland. I would recommend everyone to stay here. unfortunately we weren’t able to use the hot tub but that would have been an extra bonus. they provided croissants, bread, jam, milk, and butter for breakfast. the hosts were kind and friendly.

    I stayed at Inchrye my first night landing in Scotland and I was worried I was going to arrive past check in hours, but no need to worry because they figured everything out for me to come in and grab my key and head up to my room. It is the cutest little place and the breakfast was incredible in the morning. I would go back and stay there. Great location, near Fort George, Culloden, Clava Cairns and Cawdor Castle.

Excellent blackout curtains, important in Scotland in June! Easy parking. Good wifi. Bread, milk etc kindly provided.

We have been bouncing around Scotland for a little over a week and my kids think Inverness was by far their favorite place. The Chieftain had a lot to do with that. Also, the Hop On-Hop Off bus tour has a stop right across the street!
