Top Loch Ness Hotel Reviews

Columba Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is super helpful and friendly! Food in the restaurant is good. We had a room on the 1st floor and had issues with the wifi working. They happily moved us to a room on the 2nd floor where the WiFi works perfectly! The hotel is right by the river Ness and couldn’t be any more centrally located. We’re very happy with our choice! It’s very clean and the beds are comfortable! "

Crown Court Hotel & Bar.

10/10 Excellent

"The Crown Hotel offers excellent value for the price. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable stay. Amenities are impressive, including safe parking and CCTV security for peace of mind. The hotel features a convenient 24-hour self-check-in process, allowing flexibility for guests. You can retrieve your key from a secure locker using a provided PIN, making check-in seamless and contactless. The keyless card system adds an extra layer of security and convenience. Overall, I would rate this hotel a perfect 10 out of 10 for its affordability, cleanliness, security, and modern amenities. Highly recommended for travelers seeking comfort and convenience."

Loch Ness Drumnadrochit Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was helpful and communicative. We caught on a closed road, and realized we weren't going to make check in, we looked at our phone to contact them, and they had already reached out before check in closed and made arrangements for us. Took a load off while sitting in traffic. Breakfast (for a charge) was delicious. Staff and property were great."

Loch Ness Clansman Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Overall this was an excellent stay for us. On the first morning our shower flooded the bathroom floor because the drain was clogged, but they fixed it while we were out for the day. Other than that hiccup, it was a fantastic stay. We did the boat tour on the first day and it was fun, although cold out on the loch. Breakfast was very, very good. More choices than most hotels with fresh fruit and gluten free pancakes. I was grateful for those because I was getting tired of a Scottish breakfast. We also ate at the restaurant one night and the food was good. Everyone who was employed there was very friendly and polite. The location is excellent and convenient and there was plenty of parking. I would definitely stay here again. "
