Premier Inn Inverness Centre - River Ness

6/10 Okay

"A standard chain hotel minimally staffed by well-meaning but clearly overworked young people. There are certainly worse / far more expensive places you could stay. At least it's close to the river and the inner city."

Waverley Inn Apartments

2/10 Terrible

"I would not recommend staying at this hotel in Inverness. The room had a strong mouldy smell and was not properly cleaned upon arrival. The bathroom was dirty, the sink overflowed whenever the tap was turned on, and the toilet made very loud noises for a long time after flushing. There was also a constant dripping sound throughout the night that made it very difficult to sleep. To make matters worse, the fire alarm went off at 5am because someone was taking a shower, which was extremely disruptive. We also found multiple hairs on the bed, and overall the apartment did not feel clean or well maintained. We booked a deluxe room with a city view, but what we received was completely different from what was advertised online. The hallway carpets were ripped up, and the apartments themselves were located down the street from the main check-in area, which was unexpected. Unfortunately, the online photos did not accurately represent the accommodation, and the whole experience was a major disappointment."

The Redcliffe

2/10 Terrible

"Booked what was presented as a hotel stay at The Radcliffe Hotel only to discover we were actually placed in what felt more like an external B&B-style townhouse arrangement rather than the main hotel experience we expected. Unfortunately, the biggest issue wasn’t the accommodation itself, it was the way we were treated. On arrival, after being escorted to our room by one staff member and following agreed parking instructions, I was later challenged outside by another member of staff who questioned whether I was even a guest. Despite confirming my room number, the interaction became unnecessarily confrontational and accusatory in tone. What should have been a simple conversation about parking escalated into being made to feel unwelcome and embarrassed in front of my partner and other guests. After travelling and just arriving at the property, it was an awful first impression. I subsequently emailed management directly to raise the issue professionally and give them the opportunity to address it privately. That email has been completely ignored. For a hotel positioning itself as a premium Inverness destination, the customer service and handling of complaints fell well below expectations. We left feeling less like welcomed guests and more like an inconvenience. I’m from Inverness. I moved away and I often stay in local businesses where possible. I’m embarrassed to think guests are visiting and this is how they’re treated. I strongly advise avoiding."
