"We were extremely disappointed with this hotel. I checked the reviews before booking and expected a true 5-star experience. The reviews mentioned comfortable beds, which was especially important since we were trying to recover from jet lag. Unfortunately, the bed was one of the worst we’ve ever slept on. It honestly felt like sleeping directly on a box spring instead of a mattress. I could feel every piece of wood underneath, and we woke up every morning with sore backs and almost no sleep. To their credit, the staff did try to help by adding extra mattress toppers, but they were very thin and made little difference. Thankfully, this was only the beginning of our trip, and we had other hotels ahead to look forward to. Another disappointment was the lack of complimentary water or even basic snacks. Expect to pay for absolutely everything — even the smallest items."

"Clean room, good location. Restaurant nearby, good food."

"CLEAN ROOM"

"Wonderful, beautiful property with great rooms and excellent staff."

"Great location walking distance from train station, the pool and changing rooms could do with a bit of updating, this is the reason for 4 rather than 5 stars as the room was brilliant and staff were fantastic."

"This Historic Hotel would have gotten a perfect review from me for its location and historical connection. However if you have a room on the backside as I did you will have a sleepless night as the surrounding pubs dump bins of bottles loudly into the trash as well as slam doors well into the wee hours of the morning with no care as to who they bother."

"The room was very clean and staff helpful."

"As my wife and I continued our honeymoon through Scotland—transitioning from the perfection of Melville Castle to the Highlands—we checked into the Inverness Palace Hotel. My breakdown: 5 stars Location, 5 Service, 3 Room. Since the room is the main purpose of a stay, my overall rating is a 3. The positives are undeniable. Looking out over the River Ness provides a stunning 5-star backdrop. Service was commendable; staff were welcoming and when we requested a micro-fridge, it was brought up immediately. However, room comforts fell short. The bed was hard and pillows thin. The shower has a frustrating quirk: turning the knob unavoidably blasts you with sitting cold water due to the showerhead's angle. Soap and shampoo were provided, but we had to request conditioner (happily provided, but odd not to include by default). Unwinding was tough since the TV lacked internet or most common streaming apps or ability to download them. The general hot tub was disappointing, running a forced 10-minutes-on/10-minutes-off cleaning cycle. (The separate spa, however, is great!). Also, beware the lift—the door closed so hard on my shoulder it felt like I got tackled! Our exit was clunky: despite arranging a late checkout, our keys deactivated early. We faced pushback on our departure time, though we suspect a simple language barrier rather than rudeness. Great location and staff, but room comforts hold it back. Ironically, the best AirBnB I've ever stayed at is RIGHT behind them! "

"I loved our stay at the Glenmoriston. The location beside the River Ness is just perfect. The staff was welcoming and very helpful."
