Opiniones de los huéspedes

Los viajeros describen el Columba Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality como una base con encanto y céntrica junto al río, con vistas destacadas y fácil acceso a tiendas, restaurantes y transporte, pero por dentro muestra su edad con zonas anticuadas, pequeños inconvenientes y obras exteriores en curso.

Muchos destacan al personal amable y servicial, aunque el servicio a veces puede ser limitado o poco receptivo. Las habitaciones varían en tamaño y comodidad, con suelos crujientes, ruido de los pasillos o contenedores de botellas, peculiaridades en el control de la temperatura y problemas ocasionales como Wi-Fi débil, televisores que no funcionan o duchas incómodas sobre la bañera. El desayuno y la comida son desiguales, y el bar/restaurante en el lugar puede tener horarios limitados; no hay aparcamiento en el lugar, pero hay opciones públicas baratas cerca, y las escaleras interiores y las puertas pesadas dificultan el acceso. Espere una excelente ubicación con encanto, equilibrada por compensaciones notables.

The property was undergoing extensive exterior renovations when we arrived - which from an aesthetics perspective was not great but did not really interfere with our stay. The hotel was within reasonable walking distance of trains, buses, shopping, live entertainment, dining options, etc. One criticism was the stairs / lift situation. The lift takes you part way to your room (we were on the 3rd floor). Then there are stairs to navigate and narrow doorways to get your luggage through. Managing heavy duffle bags up stairs and through multiple sets of narrow doorways was a chore for seniors. There was no mention of that in the property write-up.

An convenient property that has seen better days. The room and bathroom were clean and realativley comfortable, but many things were dated. The stairs were a nightmare (do not carry up your luggage). Awesome view of the castle and super convenient to downtown Inverness. No parking, but a cheap pay lot was not far.

There is no luggage cart. We were traveling with a lot so getting it to/from our room was a lot of work. Also - No car park on the property. We were able to park a short distance away on the street but since it was on a one-way street, getting back to the front door the next morning required some driving around.

No-one mentioned that the whole of the front of the hotel was covered in scaffolding that spoilt the view of the Ness and the castle. We had breakfast one morning. Cold plates and cold Scottish breakfast.

Staff is super helpful and friendly! Food in the restaurant is good. We had a room on the 1st floor and had issues with the wifi working. They happily moved us to a room on the 2nd floor where the WiFi works perfectly! The hotel is right by the river Ness and couldn’t be any more centrally located. We’re very happy with our choice! It’s very clean and the beds are comfortable!

The check-in was okay but we did not feel as if we were being welcomed, it was simply a clinical check-in. When we entered our room which was described as an executive double room with river view, it was really chilly. There were two electric heaters in the room and only one, the smallest, worked. We had to borrow a portable heater from reception to take the chill of the room. The river view was impeded by the constant condensation on the single glazed windows. McNab's bar was very uninviting so we were only in it for a brief time. The breakfast was a self service buffet, which I would rate as good. There were very few staff members around for us to single out anyone for merit. Any contact we had with staff members was limited. The hotel does not have parking but there is parking nearby for £5.00 per day. The hotel was adequate for the purpose of our visit but I would not rush back.

While the hotel was in a great location (quiet, next to the River Ness, restaurants/cafes/grocery stores nearby), the room was worn and had mold growing on the bathroom walls and the shower curtain.

This is a very old hotel. The only positive is that room was very large. But it’s old. The bed was hard as a table. I understand that Inverness is mostly cold, but in the summer it should have at least a fan & better bedsheets. The bathroom was also large but it had no ventilation. Getting in & out of the tub was an accident waiting to happen. Not even a grab bar! The tub was clogged & the shower curtain was moldy! Breakfast was so-so. It had options but it looked so unappetizing. Wouldn’t recommend at all

There's a difference between old world European charm and an old gross rundown hotel. This falls into the latter category. Mould all over the bathroom, room was not clean, building is falling apart. At least the bedding was clean enough. Entry level 2 star hotel at best

Rooms were not cleaned properly. The room had a musty odor, smelled like a wet dog. Carpet is very worn. Walls are dirty. Inconvenient access to rooms, have to pass thru multiple heavy doors that do not prop open making it difficult to pass with luggage. Too many small flights of stairs in between rooms. Beds were uncomfortable. What was supposed to be a queen bed was just 2 twins pushed together. Found mold in the bathroom. Overpriced! Would not recommend!

The receptionist on arrival looked like she would rather be somewhere else. The room was dirty. Pair of women’s underpants and socks in bottom of bedside cabinet and the toilet doors and tiles were dirty. The receptionist did apologise and take note of our complaint but that was it however we didn’t ask to be moved so don’t know what would have happened if we did. The whole place is tired looking and needs renovated. Great location.

First of all, I have no problems with old buildings. It has really a certain charme. My problem is, if important things like the shower head in the bath are not adjustable in the high, because it was broken and a very cheap solution. Don't understand why its not possible to install better quality. It also was not clean, found hairs everywhere in the bath and I really not searched for it. All in all, I can't recommend it, because the price is too high for what you get.

The girls at the front were nice enough, but the bed sheets were stained and the toilet seat kept falling down or slipping off to the side. The bathroom mirror had a note posted to "please close the door to the bedroom as the steam sets off the smoke detectors."

Was fine for one night...but not great. Run down hotel in need of an upgrade. We had mould in the bathroom, the mattress was very uncomfortable and generally just felt like a very tired room needing a good clean - including getting rid of the cobwebs! Breakfast was okay...again not great. TV didn't work and the doors in the corridor made it a noisy night.

We stayed in executive double, overlooking river. Room was lovely and spacious with a comfy king bed. Bathroom had very noisy plumbing, which gurgled, clanked and groaned. The bathroom would be better with a large shower cubicle, instead of a forceful waterfall showerhead above a clawfoot bath. A very small shower curtain allowed water to flood everywhere. With a plumbing upgrade, this accommodation would be amazing.

The location is great! However, our room (218) backed up to a restaurant and they emptied bottles in a can outside multiple times a night until nearly 11:30 pm. The front desk was aware of the issue, but didn’t seem concerned.

The room was large and clean except for the window which was dirty and had spider webs. I watched resident spider come down and eat a fly, of which there were so many the staff brought a vacuum cleaner to deal with them. Floors were very creaky and uneven. No soundproofing between rooms. Situated close to restaurants and shops.

Staff were uninterested in providing a helpful service. Rooms were not serviced and reception had to be called on two days of a three night stay for our rooms to be made up. The bar was closed at 15.00hrs for restocking on Hogmanay when we only required 2 drinks? And they would not serve us. There was no interaction from the receptionist when we were checking out on how our stay was.

The staff were fantastic. The front desk was very friendly and helpful. I heard her patiently instructing another guest how to turn on the heat. The restaurant staff did everything to accommodate my gluten allergy. The hotel itself is in dire need of renovation. The floor boards are covered with thin, worn carpet, but you still can feel where they are uneven and spaced. The hot and cold faucets are old-school separate, and the toilet doesn’t flush well. The hair dryer was perfect for curly hair because it was more heat than aggressive air- I liked that. The bed was firm, which I like, but so were the pillows (2 in a single bed), which I don’t like. I also had no hangers in the closet, but I feel confident that if I had requested them, I would have gotten them.

Breakfast used very low quality ingredients, was luke warm and not fresh. We couldn’t eat it, so it was a waste of money. The staff were rude and unprofessional. In one of our rooms there was an explosion one of the electrical outlets, and all the socket in the room blew. I went to tell the receptionist and he shrug his shoulders and said ‘what can I do, there are no other rooms left, if it’s not still sparking then I’m sure it will be okay. So we had no power. I told him he just needed to flip the fuse and he said ‘if I start touching them, other people might not have power. Rooms were very dated, run down and not clean. The hot water took about 20 minutes of running before it went hot. Shower gel/ shampoo and hand wash were all the same, very low quality products. Rooms were dark and dingy and smelt like cooking. Other areas of the hotel were a mess. It’s a real shame because with a bit of care this hotel could have real potential because of its historical significance. Staff need to be retrained in the basics of hospitality, and the electrics need looked at too, as this place is really not safe! It is truly the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at.

This was a great location in Inverness. However, the staff were a bit rude when asking for a fan. Seemed put off that they were even being asked for anything. Also, there was a fire. The gentleman on duty was nonchalant about the entire ordeal. He was not very efficient in checking to see if all of the people were out of the hotel and accounted for. There were also elderly people who didn’t have a place to sit, didn’t have shoes on, and were obviously cold—as we were out in the street from 2 AM-4 AM. The same guy on duty did not update people periodically to let me know what would happen or just simply to reassure them. When the fire department finally told us all to assemble in one room together for an update, we weee given water. It might have been nice to offer drinks and snacks—maybe even free food vouchers for being outside in the cold for two hours. The hotel is old and I would worry about electrical issues/fire hazards. I would likely stay elsewhere if I was in Inverness again.
