Holiday Inn Express Inverness by IHG

Holiday Inn Express Inverness by IHG

8/10 Good
"We liked having on demand tea and coffee available downstairs for no extra charge. The breakfast was nice too but it would have been good if each item had labels on it to make identifying gluten free options easier so we didn't have to find someone to ask. The rooms also have no air con so if the weather had been any warmer, it may have been a bit uncomfortable. They do provide a fan though. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially at reception."
