10/10 Excellent
"Lovely old hotel with all modern conveniences. Staff were all friendly and helpful. The free onsite parking is a bonus if you rent a car for touring the surrounding area. Inverness is a terrific hub for the east side of the Highlands, and the Beaufort is an ideal base, also within short walking distance of the city centre. Recommended: book breakfast in advance for a better deal."

"A nice hotel with friendly staff and clean rooms, what the hotel fails to tell you is there is ongoing construction with over half of the hotel covered in scaffolding. There is workers walking up and down the hallways from 0800-1600, in the lift which is small, walking through reception, the carpark is full of construction equipment so you have to park across the road that cost £10 a day. What annoyed me was the lack of information on the construction and the parking. It would be a 5 Stars if it wasn’t for the construction and the lack of information about the construction."
