What guests think

At Loch Ness Country House Hotel, travellers praise the warm, professional staff, beautiful gardens and quiet country setting near Inverness, alongside consistently excellent breakfasts and dinners that make the historic property feel like a relaxing retreat.

This is a beautiful property in an old hunting lodge built in 1710. Our room was spectacular with stunning views of the garden. The bar lounge area with fireplace was a delightful retreat at the end of the day and the delicious breakfast was a welcome start. Our two-night stay here was wonderful!

The property's architecture gives an experience of being in a remote country retreat while being close to Inverness city centre. The surrounding gardens provide a quiet space to enjoy a Scottish holiday. The rooms are spacious and offer relaxing views of the gardens and the fields beyond. The staff are so professional and warm; they made me feel welcomed and well looked after.

This is a stunning historic well preserved Charles Rennie MacIntosh designed lodge. The owners has done a wonderful job of restoring and maintaining the original house and the grounds are lovely. Very hikable too! The restaurant was suburb as well. Finally, the host, Thomas was so delightful. One of the best small inns I've stayed at in my days. Go for the historic house when you book your room. I did not see rooms in the auxiliary buildings, but the main house is stunning.

When we arrived the staff at the front desk immediately checked us in and went out to the parking lot to help us with our bags. Our room was roomy. The bathroom was more like an unimproved old 1960's bathroom. Everything worked but was old. Dinner was excellent and the service prompt and friendly. Being far from road traffic we slept quite well. The location outside of Inverness was an asset on our passage to Urquhart Castle and Loch Ness since we did not need to deal with that mostly industrial city. And lastly the grounds were beautiful and relaxing.

Our recent stay at this hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, my family and I were warmly welcomed by the staff, whose genuine hospitality set the tone for a wonderful experience. The customer service was truly outstanding—every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our stay. The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and thoughtfully arranged, making it perfect for a family getaway. The bedding was particularly impressive—luxuriously soft, fresh, and incredibly comfortable, which made for a restful night’s sleep after a long day of sightseeing and activities. In summary, this was one of the most pleasant and memorable hotel stays we’ve had as a family. Excellent service, top-notch cleanliness, and a feeling of being truly valued as guests made it a stay full of happiness. We would not hesitate to return and highly recommend this hotel to other families seeking comfort, quality, and exceptional hospitality.

The staff were all great and the food in the restaurant was also very good. The menu was a bit limited, but everything we had was very good. The exterior of the building was nice as were the grounds. But for 300 pounds a night the room really needs work. We were in room 11, there was a 1.5inch hole in the drywall, and one wall had been so marked up by suitcases it looked like a child had colored on it. The water pressure in the shower was non existent. The chairs in the sitting room were also in rough shape and need to be restrapped. Just a total lack of basic maintenence, and thats unfortunate since this could be an amazing place.

We could not have enjoyed our stay more! Our 2 BR room was very roomy and cozy, a beautiful 1-minute walk from the main building. The breakfasts were outstanding and the dinners even better. But the best thing about the Loch Ness Country House is the staff. They were exceptionally warm, charming and helpful. . . including when we unexpectedly had to cut our stay by one night. They would have been perfectly entitled to charge us for the night given that we were only able to give them 24 hour notice, but they didn't. We can't wait to come back to Scotland, and when we do, the Loch Ness Country House will definitely be on our itinerary!

What an absolutely charming and amazing place. Everything was perfect. The hotel manager and all of the staff were so gracious, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. This is a real gem. We actually tried to extend our stay even though we would have been unable to cancel our next nights accommodations at a different hotel and would have had to eat the cost of that other room. We truly did not want to leave but unfortunately they were all booked up. Would definitely return.
