We booked this hotel on the app, and relied on the feedback from travelers. We arrived at the hotel location, which is across the river and the Inverness cathedral. As we walk up the steps to the front door, we were met with the overwhelming smell of Indian food/curry. We were greeted by a woman, who asked us if we were checking in and we were not sure how to answer as we contemplated if we we could cancel the reservation. We eventually enter the hotel / Indian restaurant. There’s no front desk, more of a restaurant reception with menus. Our room was located on the 3 floor, and the smell of Indian cuisine was extremely potent. The room was OK and location was good, but be aware that is on top of an Indian restaurant. The smell overcomes all your clothes, hair, and it’s hard to sleep with that smell. For the remainder of our trip the “smelly Hotelly” brought us a lot of laughs!
