This was a basic 'room only' guest house with no staff in attendance. I didn't book using my mobile phone but on my computer by email. I received my confirmation email. I didn't realise that a follow-up email would contain two codes - one to enter the premises and another to open my room. There was no mention of this on the confirmation email - I expected someone to be there for check-in. I had to phone the owners - no answer - but they did get back to me (quite quickly) with a text message on my mobile with these codes - but that was an anxious wait. Other guests told me that when they booked by phone they received an instant message with these codes. The room was large with two comfortable arm chairs. It was very clean and the bed was supportive. Parking was limited in a narrow street.

The good, the property location and condition were nice enough. Clean comfortable rooms.

The bad, access to the common area where there is a fridge that guests can use for personal breakfast food is not available until 9am unless on asks for the room code in advance. Just leave the room open to guests.

The terrible, there is no staff on site, just that \"there is no front desk at this property.\" The booking site does NOT make mention of this fact if one checking in during the normal times starting at 3:30pm. There is a reference to virtual checkin for late arrivals. This needs to be absolutely clear in the adverts which it is not.

We arrived not realizing we should have been sent a followup email regarding codes to the guest house and room. We had no access to email upon arriving and learned this via in the instructions on the front door. Not a good initial impression.

Fortunately, other guests arrived at the same time who assisted us in contacting the owners who did respond but was rather curt and unapologetic about their poor communication.

The front door slams heavily each time some one enters or leaves. It is only a few feet through a paper thin wall from the front suite. It was constant noise all night long. There is no staff there at all only a foreign phone number. The 'manager' was very hard to reach and rude.

The room was fine, clean and comfortable it was just a lot of money for an OK room. Access is all done using a code so no actual human contact at all, cups in the room are cardboard so not exactly homely. Having said that beds were comfy, shower was hot and the coffee machine was a lovely touch. Not sure if it’s the guest house or the booking agent that ramps up the prices but £168 for 1 night is just too much for this place I’m afraid so that has probably clouded my review.

Clean but spartan - seemed more like a hostel than a guest house. Small room and even smaller en suite bathroom. TV remote was either broken or had dead batteries. Unfortunately nobody on site to ask for new batteries so we were limited to only one channel. Check in is on your own as there isn’t anyone to greet you upon arrival. Most concerning was that, because the pin sign in system wasn’t working, the owners had simply left a key in the front door which would allow anyone entry and which I thought was reckless. Overall, this was a fair experience but, for the price, I thought very overrated. So I gave it a poor rating for the disparity.

My feedback applies to my specific room only. Room was good and they had parking available. One major issue I had is that Isle of Sky room is directly next to the front door. When you lay on the bed your head is practically a couple of feet away from the front door which slams like a vault door! Actually all doors slam and have huge gaps around the frame so no sound proofing at all. You are more or less at the mercy of the other visitors. In my case the last time someone slammed that front door was 2:30 in the morning and first time about 7:30 so that is just 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep for me.

Second thing that actually got me pretty annoyed is that I tried to get as much sleep as possible after 7:30 so I set my alarm for 10:20 and at 9:50 or so housekeeping rushes into my room and wakes me up 'oh I am very sorry'. If checkout is 10:30 please do not disturb people before 10:30!

It is all good and fancy with the keyless entry and other things that are clearly well organized and tidy but what is the point if you can't sleep? It might be something owners are not even aware of.

Overall, a good stay

The walls are very thin and you can hear everyone in the hallway. Sometimes, you can hear them in their rooms. I was unable to control the heat in my room and found that to be a bit annoying. But the room was clean and the owners were nice. The towels were thin and you couldn't check in early or store your bags anywhere until the 330 check-in. I liked that everything had a code. This was a nice stay, but could use a bit of care.

Our automated check-in was easy - just make sure to follow the instructions. The location was fairly convenient, just a few minutes' walk away from the bridge across the river into downtown Inverness. Our room was comfortable.
Parking is NOT ideal here - it is a 5-space lot that really only fits 3 cars, so your odds of being blocked-in are pretty high. Luckily, we parked on the right side where we couldn't be blocked in, but we saw this happen to others and the House has a warning for drivers to leave their contact information on their dashboard if they block someone in.

Anything but a silent night.

One chair in large double room, but my real issue is with the selfish inhabitants of the room(s) upstairs. They loudly announced their arrive at around 3am, crashing through the door and talking at full volume. Didn't end there, doors opening and closing, more loud conversations. We packed up and left at 4am and got a taxi to the Premier Inn.

The room was clean and very well put together. Everything you need. The reason for the less then perfect review is because of two issues.One major in our opinion and one frustrating and not sure what the property owner can do. First was the bed.I’ve sleep on floors more comfortable.The double/full bed was actually two smaller mattresses pushed together.The uneven gap between them made sleeping terrible and the mattresses themselves were NOT comfortable to begin with. We did contact them and they responded quickly saying they would check into it but whatever they did made no difference. A thick mattress topper MIGHT have solved the problem short term. Other issues was noise from seagulls that roost at night outside. Horribly noisy! NOT sweet little pigeon or songbird sounds but a shrieking loud “what the heck was that!!?”noise. Earplugs are a must. I don’t know what the owners can do (if anything) but it’s worth knowing before you book. Maybe they are only there this time of year?? Between those two issues we almost went to a hotel for our last night to get some sleep.

My wife and I stayed here while on a three day tour and was a 10 minute walk from the coach drop off point in town. The owners messaged us access details the morning of the day we were to check in. Rooms are locked by a secure code and so is the front door. The room was very neat and cozy, and spotless. The area is quiet and there is minimal vehicle traffic in the morning and at night. One thing to mention to the owners is that two of our blinds wouldn’t stay down and kept rolling up, so the neighbours across the road would have had views from their second floor to our room. But overall a fantastic stay

Knocking on the door to clean our room on checkout day. We still had over an hour before check out.

Property is in a great location. Short walk to city center and a range of restaurants close by (although reservations were required at better choices and we couldn’t get same day reservations). As the website makes clear, property isn’t staffed although staff/owners available through phone/texting with no problems. Good choice for folks comfortable with figuring out how locks, shower and heat work.

The Highland cow decorating scheme was very cute. The small room with dormer windows and slanted ceilings was quaint, with two twin beds tucked into angles. The bathroom was small but adequate, although we as Americans felt less comfortable with the electric shower so did not use. The name of the place is GuestHouse, so know what to expect - no lobby or onsite staff, check in is remote with key codes emailed prior to arrival. Parking is free, though the attached lot is small. We found this to be adequate lodging for a night or two, with close walking access to all the attractions of central Inverness. We did find this hotel overpriced for what you ultimately get though. It was a weekend night in Inverness, but we paid more for this utilitarian room than most other places on our stay.

Lovely property and the room was spacious, quiet neighbourhood in walkable distance to the downtown shopping and train/bus stations. The only drawback was the very fussy shower in the bathroom, even with the tiniest adjustments it was either blistering hot ir icy cold, nothing in between.

If you must

Let’s face it, it’s an overpriced dump, but Inverness doesn’t have a lot of reasonable options, especially if you have a vehicle. You’re competing with senior money.

This guest house has no staff on site but access easy using pin codes supplied. I had the single room which was adequate with comfortable bed and tiny en-suite. Some noise from other guests and the walls are thin but quiet overnight.
I would prefer a hotel but these expensive in Inverness.

Did not like or feel safe from a health and safety aspect of the guest house being unmanned . No personal service or welcoming hosts. Lazy business model. Seems no one in this world wants to connect with anyone anymore. Maybe the instagram lovers would like this hands off business.. I did not.

The space was nicely accommodated and quick response time from the host. However, we were put on the first floor and could hear all the upstairs guest check out in the early morning as they came downstairs with their luggage and opened/closed the front door continuously. The shower also was hard to adjust to the right temperature.

The room was exactly as advertised and very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Having reserved parking spots was a plus. Instructions for self check-in/check-out were easy to follow. Walk ability to shopping and restraunts was very easy. Over-all, a great stay.
This has nothing to do with the accommodations, but it was heartbreaking to see the dog in the courtyard that we could see from our windows, left outside all day and night. The poor thing looked so sad. It poured rain one of the days and there was no cover. I'm hoping there was water and food somewhere, but we could not see any. The dog did not look malnourished, but just lacked the love from it's owners. Where we come from, our dogs are part of our family and we spend much time with our pets. I understand the working dog mentality at i grew up on a farm myself, however, even our dog had a covered kennel that was in our garage that they could retreat to a warm bed at the end of the day. Just left us feeling sad. That's all.
