We stayed in this hotel for 4 days at the beginning of September. It may not be in the center of Inverness but the hotel as a whole taking into account the price and quality of bedrooms and the hotel in general as well as the friendly approach from all the staff was brilliant. I highly recommend it especially if... More

Stayed for one night with a couple of colleagues. We have a business account for the purple place and usually stay there. Inverness was busy so the office booked us in here. After reading the reviews I was somewhat surprised to find myself in a relatively decent room with a large clean bathroom. Okay its on an estate but its... More

Not a hotel- shabby rooms, non existant insulation between rooms. Same complaints on the internet for several years - don't they read them?? We'll do more research before booking another time!

Again stopping away from home working in Inverness for a two week period. I searched the net & local papers etc for accomodation in Inverness only to find extremely unrealistic prices for what can only be called basic accomodation. I kept being told that 'it was the height of the holiday season' & there was no way would they drop... More

We travel to inverness every year for the portland darts competition, we have been staying at this hotel for the last 6-7 years and quite frankly its not the best hotel in the world but it is cheap and the staff and locals are very friendly, the breakfast is very good, i would recommend this hotel to anyone

I stayed here in Mid- June with my parents, and brother on a grown-up family trip. This hotel was nice in a good location, the girl at the front desk was very helpful and our rooms were clean. We had no complaints of this hotel and had one of the most spacious and nicest bathrooms I saw in our whole... More

Arrived at the Smithton Hotel and my heart fell through the floor as I took in the sight of the very dowdy, ugly and generally disgusting hotel in front of me. Our reservation had been double-booked and we were told they would honour ou r booking. I was told to leave and come back at three o'clock (it was 2.30pm).... More

One of the worst hotels I have stayed in for a long time. The image on the website is very flattering - do not be fooled. This is like a flash back to the 1970's and I do not think the rooms have been decorated since. Small dark and pokey rooms - looked awful. The restauarant is part of the... More
