Nice, but crowded

Room was lovely, nice that it had A/C which is not common in Scotland generally. The dining area was very dirty with food crushed on chairs. Breakfast service doesn’t exist which is definitely needed at least for coffee because the tour groups pack in and it makes breakfast a hassle.

This hotel was in a great location, just 3 nice walking blocks from the heart of everything. Walk there along the river, or through old city streets admiring residential architecture. The staff is nice, the lobby is great as is the breakfast. Our room was comfortable.
Great amount of room for loading and unloading your car!

Hotel is waking distance from everywhere and rooms are new. They assigned us a room on an adjacent building and it was on the ground floor. Didn’t feel safe and was right next to the pavement so people could see inside. Check In and check out fast, lobby and bar really nice. Area around the hotel looks pretty dodgy

We stayed at the AC Hotel for three nights this summer. This hotel is a great base for activities in and around Inverness. The front desk staff are terrific, very helpful and friendly folks. Parking can be in short supply onsite but there is a paid lot very nearby that is the same price as the hotel. It’s a short walk to some great restaurants and the location is also close to major road access. The breakfast is very good, a wide selection of hot and cold options and reasonably priced. We were there in mid-July and appreciated the air conditioning! We would definitely stay there again.

The hotel and staff were nice and convenient to walk to shopping, railway and bus stations. I wish the toilets and showers in the room were clean more thoroughly. Black mold in the toilet and brown mold on the floor in the shower. Also would have prefer more choices for breakfast.

Eve, Charlemont

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Concierge and staff were very accommodating and pleasant. Our bed wasn't as comfortable as hoped for; and although our sheets had gotten soiled, they still just followed their policy of only changing them after 3 days. As is the custom in most European countries, they are not big fans of ice; however, we would have enjoyed there being an ice machine to keep our beverages cold. It was a fairly new hotel; however, the shower did show signs of aging around the bottom of the door, making it look a bit dirty. It was convenient having a restaurant there, but no room service available. Their menu was limited; however, the food was fresh. Overall, we would probable check some other hotels out that had a king-size bed, before staying there again.
