Wonderful

We stayed one night whilst walking the Great Glen Way. The room we had was ideal. Very clean, quiet and everything worked well. Tunnocks caramel wafers were a nice touch. We also ate dinner end breakfast and the food quality was very high. We were especially impressed by the quality of all of the waiting and bar staff.
Room was clean and comfortable. Food was great for dinner. The staff were really pleasant. A bit limited for breakfast. Constantly had to ask for milk for the cereals in a morning. They bring out a small jug for the whole restaurant. We never got wifi in the bedroom. They just said it was BT’s fault although it worked elsewhere in the hotel. Don’t think we will be returning.
Beautifully updated but oozing with old world charm in a quaint Scottish village. So close to Loch Ness! The staff was lovely and so helpful. The breakfast options were excellent and the dinner at the inn was fabulous! Would love to stay there again and highly recommend the Lock ness Inn!
The staff at this property are really friendly. The bar is wonderful and the breakfast was equally good. The room was well suited to our family of 4. Everything was clean. We would stay here again.
Although our room was small, it was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed one of the best dinner meals of our entire trip here. Highly recommend making a reservation to enjoy their restaurant for dinner.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff was excellent. Food at restaurant was excellent. Easy to find on the road. Comfortable and clean.
Very nice property. Except for the fact that a noisy and annoying water pump was working upstairs to our room and that I had to contact the property to make it stop past midnight.
Excellent stay at The Loch Ness Inn. We were staying at 8 different locations during our tour of Scotland and this inn stood out as by far the best for accommodation and food.
It was welcome to see that all the small details were looked after, enabling the room to be very well presented.
All three courses of the evening meal were delicious and who knew porridge could taste that good for breakfast!
We enjoyed our quick stay and appreciate the included breakfast.
The room was small and walls are thin but overall it is a good rest spot from our way back from Skye.
Inverness downtown is half an hour drive from the hotel. All the staff members we spoke to were all very polite and courteous.
Overall I would recommend this hotel for a quick stay as there is not a lot to do in the area.
A disappointingly small and dark room for the price. In my view --overpriced. Location OK, plenty of parking. Close to cafes and shops.
Dinner menu good and varied.
Breakfast choice more limited but service good.
This was a very lovely little inn that has had some lovely modernisation. The new bar at the rear was great. Lots of choices of drinks at very reasonable prices. The restaurant area where we had our breakfast was also very clean and modern but still retained some character and charm off an old inn. Our bedroom which was situated upstairs in the inn was very nice, clean, modern with a good size bathroom and a lovely rainfall shower. Tea and coffee facilities provided which is always a nice touch.
Our only negative was that we arrived thinking we would eat lunch before checking in but the whole place is closed until check in time which is 3pm at which time the bar opens and you can check in but the restaurant doesn’t open until 5pm so we had to drive back into the little town to have lunch. We did stay in April so this may change in the summer season.
All in all a very nice place to stay.
Outstanding pub hotel, my 4th stay and every time it’s been friendly and brilliant service ,The hospitality and food has always been amazing.
Always a warm welcome and the hotel rooms are stylishly cosy and spotless.
Can’t wait to come back!
