The Columba Hotel was an amazing place to stay in Inverness. The location along the river is beautiful, and within walking distance of anything you'd need. The staff were especially friendly, and the breakfast options were amazing. Our room was very clean and welcoming. I would definitely stay here again!

An convenient property that has seen better days. The room and bathroom were clean and realativley comfortable, but many things were dated. The stairs were a nightmare (do not carry up your luggage). Awesome view of the castle and super convenient to downtown Inverness. No parking, but a cheap pay lot was not far.
