4 out of 5
Pros: Location on the River Ness with view of Inverness Castle and convenience to restaurants and shopping
It would have helped to know ahead of time that when there was no parking spots that valet would take care of the car, so I wouldn't have felt the need to drive around the block when someone came in after me. Staff was reasonably helpful, but not as friendly as other locales that we visited. Our view was of a roof, not particularly pleasing to look at.

I'm sorry that you were unaware of the valet service and that you were disappointed with your view. I hope that you enjoyed your stay in Inverness and that we can look after you again soon. Kindest Regards Aimee
