A friendly, welcoming, real Scottish hotel of magnetic character and charm.
One minute from alighting the train, 15 minutes from the airport, and nestling in the vibrant and modern Highland capital of Scotland, is a true delight. A unique marriage of historical majesty and grandeur with that special brand of modern hospitality - dynamic and ever moving with modern demand, yet preserving the very best of the hotel's own great heritage and evoking fond memories and nostalgia borne out of its fascinating history and evolution to the proud position it holds today as one of Highland Scotland's most interesting and popular guest experiences. Guests savour two feasts here: the unmistakable hospitality and classical culinary experience of this grand hotel, and the freedom of one of the least crowded parts of Western Europe the enormous appeal of vibrant Inverness as an outstanding destination base from which to enjoy and savour a veritable kaleidoscope of activities, great shopping, touring and sightseeing opportunities which surround and abound.

It has a different ambiance to it than the hotel, but guests who prefer the traditional feel are welcome to continue to dine in our Gallery area of the hotel. Our menus use the finest of local produce prepared to order and are changed throughout the year to enable us to offer our diners quality food and superb prices. Booking recommended.
