We stayed at the Rocpool Reserve from Friday 13th to Sunday 15th January in a Decadent room. We were very lucky to get a great deal through Groupon, which included Breakfast on both days and a Roux Express meal on one night. As we were in a Decadent room we chose not to partake in the offer to upgrade our room to the Extra Decadent. The hotel is situated centrally, a five-minute walk into the centre of Inverness, in a very peaceful area. On our arrival we were greeted at our car by one of the fabulous members of staff offering a hand with our luggage. We were then taken to our room and were checked in there. Much more discreet! We had Room Number 4, which had a small sitting room off the sumptuous bedroom and a massive bathroom with double shower and Roll top bath. Gorgeous! The bed was very comfortable and the shower was the type you could stay in all day! Breakfast was delicious, the menu plentiful and I enjoyed homemade Muesli and a full Scottish Breakfast cooked to perfection, served by friendly attentive staff.
The staff at the Rocpool deserves a special mention, I have never stayed in a hotel where the staff were so wonderful. They anticipated our every need, nothing was too much trouble and they seemed to take a genuine pride in their hotel. Even if you had not met them before, they knew exactly who we were and what room we were in when we walked in after an afternoon out.
Our Evening meal should have been the Roux Express, which was included with our Groupon deal, but, we opted instead to order from the main menu, again, food was excellent served by amazing staff.
We loved the Rocpool and will be returning in the near future. The hotel is small, only 11 rooms and I really hope it stays this size. I think if they decide to expand this will spoil the atmosphere, homely feel and service.
We would highly recommend this as a place for a romantic weekend.
Go on spoil yourself. You are so worth it!!!
Room Tip: If you can't afford to stay at the Rocpool, do have a meal at the Chez Roux. Menu is very reason...
