“First choice for staying in Inverness”

Dionard Guest House

2/3 found this review helpful

Great place to stay.

Cant praise this Guest House highly enough.

I travel to Inverness quite regularly now and wont stay anywhere else.

Rooms are decorated to an extremely high standard and are always immaculate.

Val and John are always the perfect hosts and treat you like family.

Top marks

Keep up the great work

We stayed here for three nights and it was the highlight of our Scotland trip. The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. John's breakfast is legendary! If you're looking for a friendly welcome and home comforts then this is it.

Great! 5 stars!

Can't wait to go back.

“The best guest house in Scotland.”

4/4 found this review helpful

We have now stayed with Val and John four times and can honestly say that the Dionard is something very very special.
I don't write reviews often but having seen a comment left from someone who clearly hasn't stepped foot in the place I feel compelled to write.
The accommodation is of a very high standard and well worthy of their 4 stars.
The breakfast is fantastic and far better than I have had in many hotels throughout the world.
Both Val and John are extremely welcoming and friendly even when we have been delayed and arrived a bit late. Their local knowledge and advice has always been second to none.
I look forward to our next stay and I would advise anyone to book early as they often get booked up.

Would not stay here i would rather stay in prison tried to phone to book a room but was rather rudly spoken to by an old busybody who hung up on me and did not seem intetested in customer relations. Dont stay in this hotel if you want to stay out past ten pm These people should not be advertising a hotel if they are not intrested in paying custom.

As this particular guest has never stayed At Dionard, I find it extremely difficult to understand that he would rather stay in prison than with us and that he can rate us in any way at all.
We get a number of very late phone calls, and all are treated with courtesy and consideration, but when you have been woken up and been subjected to rudeness on the other end, quite naturally you replace the reciever.

From the first contact, Val & John did everything to help us with our booking (we could reconfirm our rooms very late and you can´t take that for granted that they hold our rooms)

Arrival is like to come home - everything is spotless clean, crisp linen, very silent fridges in every room.

And: The B & B is a hotspot!

If you need a hint for a "shopping therapy" or a dinner recommendation - ask Val!

The breakfast was wonderful - if I come back to Inverness - I will stay here again!
