This is an old property that needs to be refreshed. The floors are creaky and the rooms not sound proof. The room was also stuffy. A disappointment for sure. We should have booked somewhere else. Breakfast was ok except large bus tours both nights gobbled up the food.

The reason I gave this place a 5 star is because their staff was really amazing. I accidentally booked a week later than what I wanted and showed up to the hotel with no booking for that day. They got me to rebook and refunded me for the original booking even though they have a no refunds policy. Very kind of them to do that.

The room and view were nice, but we almost wished we had stayed at the back of the hotel because the noise of people on the street all night woke us a few times. The bed was not the most comfortable and there was chipping paint. The location was amazing for walking around town. I just expected a little higher quality for the price.

This hotel is dirty, dreary, depressing and a complete disgrace. From the weeds growing out of the gutters, the broken wrought iron balustrades, the chipped and tatty decor, the unwashed doors covered in dirty fingerprints, the over-heated rooms with no way to cool down, the tired furnishings - just disgusting. It’s obvious no investment in this place has occurred for a long, long, time. We will NEVER choose a Compass hotel again.

The tiles on the bathroom floor were very cracked, some were loose and some cracked when I stepped on them. There was a very loud noise the whole time the water drained from the tub. Flushing the toilet also resulted in this noise.

Right, what really makes a place is how they react to things being a bit off. Firstly thumbs up for the room having a proper iron and full size ironing board, but some one ahead of me had made the iron rather manky, you know too hot for the fabric, or not having enough water in to steam iron properly. The hotel did not have any iron cleaner, but initially gave me a clean pillow case to put between the iron and my clothes, ( a good tip if you have linen iron cotton pillowcases), and then within 5 minutes were at the door with a brand new replacement iron. Top marks, remember this is an old building so it creaks a bit and the plumbing occasionally wheeze, but the showers are good, the rooms clean and the bed was comfy.
Well done team.

Old fashioned hotel, reasonable decor, room small but fine. Shower over a bath, towel rail had to be switched off because it made the room too hot. Large TV but when it was turned on to live TV the picture pixelated. Disappointed in the food we ordered in the bar, obviously reheated, and 3 items were off the menu. The staff were lovely and helpful. It was the start of the tourist season but I think the cost for one night was high.

The evening and Saturday staff were wonderful. Very pleasant, friendly and funny. When we arrived Friday morning, the young woman didn't seem happy to be working, so that is why I didn't give staff a 5, she was a bit negative and seemed to be put off by any questions we had. She also didn't ask if we needed anywhere safe to store our computers, where as the evening and Saturday staff asked us without me inquiring.
The room was nice with a wonderful view, it was just old and a little run down. I would have liked the room to be a little better up kept. The breakfast was great, very delicious and had a great variety. The only down fall was one person supporting resupplying anyting the breakfast area had to offer, food, coffee, water, ect. We did not go into the bar.

After more than 20 years of booking through Hotels.com, this experience may finally end that relationship.

This hotel was advertised and priced as a four-star property, but in reality it felt much closer to a two-star hotel. Before our arrival, we attempted several times to contact the hotel with questions and requests. Unfortunately, neither the hotel nor Hotels.com responded.

The property itself is extremely tired and in need of major renovation. Carpets were torn and worn, the shower door hardware was literally falling apart, and the mattress felt decades old. After only a few nights, all three of us were experiencing back discomfort. No soap in the bathroom sink or shower. Towels not changed . Room is so small.

Breakfast was equally disappointing. The food quality was so poor that we chose to eat elsewhere the following morning. The eggs were rubbery plastic instant eggs

I want to be fair and note that the staff members we encountered were pleasant and courteous. The employees are not the problem. The issue is that the hotel is being marketed and priced at a level that its condition simply does not justify.

Hotels.com should either reclassify this property to reflect its actual condition or require significant improvements before continuing to market it as a four-star hotel. This was a genuinely disappointing experience and far below the standard I have come to expect from Hotels.com.

I know it's an old hotel but this one is really outdated guests can see ripped carpets in the main hall way, flaked paint and the bathroom in our room had no handwash!
The breakfast was really bad and tasteless the beans were like gloop, I'm surprised folk were eating it!
When checking out I wasn't asked about my stay, the receptionist just took my keys and gave me a quick bye, which I felt was quite rude and lacked customer service/care.

We stayed for 1 night which was ok as we were out most of the time but I wouldn't stay any longer than that, I personally would not stay here again which is a shame.

It was fine,
bed comfortable,
(local) TV & kettle worked,
shower had good pressure
Location is why you’re here.
My issue is with the fire doors, all the doors actually, every single room door & the several fire doors down the length of the hall ALL squeaked and slammed!
Greasing a squeaky hinge has got to be one of the easiest fixes in the world- but when I mentioned it to front desk staff she basically rolled her eyes at me as if to say I was asking too much.
The slamming is another issue that would take more work but it’s not impossible to fix and is pretty standard in most hotels.
I really wanted to like the restaurant more, had I not been practically starving I would have sent my beef pie back because it was soooooo salty.
The ONE staff member did a pretty good job handling the 5-6 tables on his own, but jeeez, get one more employee in there, add less salt in the food and they could probably raise their dismal 3-stars (on Google) problem.

First of all I think the reviews are fake . The hotel was filthy.
We traveled for 9.5 hours really looking forward to this lovely hotel we had booked. Terrible check in went to the room nothing like what was shown.
Carpet had not been hoovered there was hair fluff bits of stick . The bathroom had hair in the shower and toe nail clipping on the dirty Lino.
It was a king size bed with a double quilt on it .
Went down stairs and said I wasn’t happy with the room the girl at reception said she will go and clean it . So we went out for 1 hour came back and she said could not find a quilt that would fit. I went and checked the room she had cleaned the carpet but there was more hair in the shower than before I went and asked for the manager the girl said why I’ve cleaned your room.
Manager came down asked me to sit outside in the corridor and tell him the problem so I did he never said a word apart from il see what I can do .a bit later he asked me would il like to see a different room so I did it was much better.
But the hotel is so run down the hall carpets need to be hoovered the dust everywhere is unbelievable. We had paid for breakfast I asked for a refund because I didn’t feel it was safe to eat there . We given a free drink as an apology.
For the 5 days we were there my room was not cleaned once I had to go to reception and ask for the bins to emptied and more milk and coffee
Ask for fresh towels not 1 day did they come in room to make the bed even.

We will be contacting the hotel directly. Starting with the positives, the location is excellent - step out the door and you are directly in the city centre.

I simply cannot comment on the staff - we only met them at check-in. They were not particularly friendly, very much “do it yourself” type of attitude. They weren’t rude by any stretch, but there wasn’t a sense of willingness to help.

The building is very old and outdated, which could add to the charm but when you have bobbling carpets, sloping floors and peeling/ stained photographs, you see that no effort has been made to tap into this.

Now we come to the cleanliness of the property. Worst I’ve ever seen. I’m only glad that we didn’t bring our children here as my daughter has a dust allergy. From the fire place in the foyer to the desk in the room, to the ridges in the bathroom - there was thick dust! It was disgusting. Some of the towels had stains which is unnecessary! On the first night, someone had clearly been eating a Sandwick in the foyer and had left crumbs on the desk. Those remained there until we checked out at 11pm on two days later. There was a general lack of attention to detail of the most basic forms across the board. When we checked out, there was no member of staff to be seen.

The bed was comfy enough and the bedding clean, but that’s where it ended.

I can safely say that we will not be staying in this property again but hope management take the feedback on board for future guests.

The photographs of people and days long gone that lined the hallways and stairways were very interesting indeed and definitely added to the essence of the hotel.

We had an amazing stay at this hotel! Staff are fantastic, Manager upgraded us to the suite, we felt very lucky and fortunate! Spotless rooms and very comfortable, tasty buffet breakfast. Excellent location in front of the river and newly upgraded Inverness Castle and surrounded by shops, restaurants and bars. The best place we have ever stayed in Inverness!!! Thank you!!! <3

Room was a very good size since we were 2 adults and a toddler. Staff were very helpful and courteous. Bathroom needs a bit of general maintenance. Housekeeping was lacking: we were 3 in the room but only given 2 towels. When we asked for the room to be made up, the bed was not made and no vacuum was passed so floor was left with crumbs. The used mugs in the room were not washed for the entire stay.

The room was very tired looking and cold. There was only a very thin Duvet on the bed which didn’t even go down the sides.
I was there for 10 days and on the 5th day I had to ask for my sheets to be changed. I also asked for an extra blanket or something and the receptionist organised for an extra heater to go in my room. Which did help.
Overall they didn’t do the “ Nice / Finer details “ you would expect from a well known inner city Hotel.

Room was very comfortable with beautiful views of the castle. Amenities were nice and the hotel was in walking distance of everything we needed. Only issue was the drain on the shower kept clogging so we just needed extra towels bc the floor would get very wet.

The exterior of the hotel is shabby with rusty railings. Bathrooms need updating.

Very handy location. Comfortable beds.
