We loved the service here, the staff was well informed and very friendly. We could park our car at the location and we quickly got our room and checked in. The dinner and the overall atmosphere was lovely and breakfast was delicious. The beds were very comfortable and by car the location was only a few minutes to Loch Ness. We didn't hear anything during the night from other neighbours, very quiet.

What we didn't like was only the size of the room since it was quite small for four people and we couldn't really open our luggage since there was not enough space for big suitcases.

Exceptionally clean, comfortable and warm! Felt at home as soon as we walked in. Every member of staff were friendly, accommodating and efficient. Every meal from breakfast to dinner was well presented and delicious. We tried other restaurants but came back here as could not be beaten. We came here for our honeymoon and received the warmest of welcomes and hospitality. Loved our stay and will recommend to everyone!!

There is nothing we didn’t love about The Loch Ness Inn

We flew from London to Inverness, and drove by hire car to the Hotel. It was out of season, rooms , food, (evening meal and breakfast) were excellent. Service was efficient and helpful. We only stayed one night. It was an excellent location tom see Loch Ness, the nearby waterfall, and castle.

Nothing comes to mind, the accommodation was very comfortable, the weather better than expected, the hotel was pleasant in all respects, especially so since it was out of season,

Excellent location just prior to the city. The room was modern and quite comfortable. The distance from lodging to the dining areas is conveniently accessible and shielded from the rain. The dining selection for all meals was very good and flavorful too. The bar area is pretty well stocked with staples to quench any thirst. Great place to kick back and relax after a successful day of long walking on the Great Glen Way.

Since the restaurant is smaller eating times are condensed to 90 minutes to best accommodate all diners so plan accordingly.

Our room in the main building was lovely, with uplighting, wainscoting, coffee/tea service, and calming decor. Two of my sons stayed in the "bunk house" in two twin beds, and I did not see their lodging. We enjoyed eating in the pub (no reservation needed) and the cooked breakfast was to order plus continental offerings which we all loved. We went for an evening walk to a forest nearby and the location was easy early access to Urquhart castle the next morning as we did not have reservations!

Worked out perfectly for us!

All meals, dinner and breakfast, were delicious. I booked at the Inn based on reviews that said the food was very good. That was accurate. We had a room off the main dining room which was fairly quiet. It was very warm when we stayed which meant we needed the blinds up and windows open for ventilation. The room was very clean and the bath products were lovely.

It would have been nice to have had a fan in the room due to the heat. With the windows open we heard courtyard noise and a family with upset children.

The service and experience during our stay was exceptional. From the moment we arrived to when we checked out the staff were friendly, helpful and on the ball. The room was very clean and well decorated. Our evening meal, drinks and breakfast were delicious and the staff took into account our dietary requirements without any issues. The hotel is a stone’s throw from Loch Ness and a one minute drive from Urquhart castle. We would definitely stay here again.

It's very hard to find a fault as we had such a good experience although the dining room chairs made a noise when moved across the floor. Adding pads to the chairs legs would be recommend.

This was such a wonderful property. The room design details are so pleasing, and the beds were very comfortable. There was ample room for clothing storage. Pretty bathroom, good shower with great water pressure. Nice selection of tea/coffee. Breakfast was very good — choice of hot food and cold buffet. Strongly recommend making a dinner reservation as well, as the food is very good, the restaurant ambience is very nice and it’s so lovely not to have to go searching for dinner. Parking was easy. The location is excellent for local sightseeing.

Nothing lacking!

The property was immaculate and well organized. It was made up of a main building and two lodging buildings that formed an outdoor eating, drinking and conversation area. The restaurant provided high quality meals with good choices. The room was well appointed, compact and airy. With the unusually warm temperatures the room needed a fan to move otherwise still air in the second level unit. The young staff were attentive to our needs, obviously well prepared, and clever conversationalists. The Inn is a great location within driving distance of many interesting destinations.

We were more than satisfied.

Attractive hotel near to Loch Ness. We had an enjoyable evening in the bar and a decent dinner in the restaurant. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. It was quiet during the night.

We were not shown to our rooms and there was no offer to help with our luggage. The bar would not let us put our bill on the room. There wasn't much soundproofing between rooms so, for example, the next room's shower was quite loud.
