“Absolutely fantastic!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2012

This place was the highlight of our 3 week holiday. The accommodation was gorgeous, heated floors in the bathroom and beautiful decor. The restaurant is right across the road (same owners), right on the village green, so a very convenient location. Breakfast was also across the road and was great. This place was recommended to us by friends and I definitely wouldn't hesitate in recommending to anyone else.

“overall a good hotel/b&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

We stayed here as part of a 3 day tour to the Highlands and the accommodation was clean and the management friendly and eager to please. Our room had a separate bathroom-ie it wasn't attached to our room, but our bedroom was largish. Other people in our group had private facilities, but smaller bedrooms-if you are carrying a bit of luggage, it can be squeezy. Breakfast was sufficient and tasty, but continental with cold meats and cheeses,as well as croissants, fresh rolls etc. All delivered with a friendly smile. I can recommend the boat trip, you may not get to see Nessie, however the ducks are quite beautiful and friendly

Room Tip: best to request a private 'ensuite' room. We ended up taking the bedroom with a separate bat...

“Spoiled rotten...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 June 2011

person found this review helpful

A group of 3 of us stayed here for the night whilst walking the Great Glen Way and it has to be one of the nicest and best value B&B's around. The room was very comfortable, particularly the lovely beds, and was spotlessly clean. The bathroom was also spotless and had underfloor heating, for which our sore feet were very grateful! Over the road is the Fiddler's bar and restaurant, which has loads of character and a lot of whiskey! The food was lovely, perfectly cooked, and generous portions for a very reasonable price. The staff were also great, very friendly and attentive. Two of our group actually work in the hospitality industry so we know a good thing when we see it. Staying here was a highlight of our trip and we will definatly be coming back again.

“Great if in Inverness”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2010

Stayed here last year with the girlfriend when we were walking in the Highlands, Really nice and there was a lovely little restaurant just down the road but, the name escapes me (sorry) but, I do remember the Hotel and I was'nt disapointed. The rooms were clean and well organised and the staff were very friendly. I would reccomend this place for couples wanting a nice hotel in a good location.

“Fab place - hotel, bar, people = faultless”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2009

A wonderful find. The rooms we stayed in were across the road from the bar and restaurant. We were in a room with a shared bathroom but this didn’t matter at all. Everything was spotless – beds and bathroom.

The bar and restaurant were wonderful. A huuuuge selection of whiskeys, the food was a real surprise, much better than perhaps we were expecting. You’re recommended to book if you fancy eating in the restaurant during summer periods as the queues go out the door. And rightly so. It seems Fiddler’s has a good reputation amongst the small group of hotels and food places nearby.

The staff and knowledgeable and helpful and charming. Would love to back someday.
