What guests think

Across the reviews, Beaufort Hotel stands out for warmly welcoming staff and a convenient, walkable Inverness location with parking, while guests also appreciate comfortable beds and the on site bar and restaurant.

Room quality is inconsistent: some are spacious or recently updated, others feel dated or cramped, with thin walls and noise from corridors or events. There is no lift and several remarks note lots of stairs; warm rooms and lack of air conditioning are recurring issues, with spotty Wi Fi in places. Cleanliness and maintenance are mixed, ranging from very clean stays to reports of mold, stains, broken fixtures and housekeeping lapses. Expect a friendly, characterful base close to town, but check room type and ask for a quieter, cooler option.

Can't fault the location, only a 5 minute walk to the heart of the city. Parking was easy and convenient. I arrived early to check in and the staff were more than happy for me to stay parked and wander in to town until it was time to check in. The staff were all very welcoming and professional at all times, the onsite restaurant served the best food I've had in a long time. One word of warning: there is no lift, only stairs so if you have a heavy suitcase it might be a bit of a struggle, but this does not reflect badly on the experience, highly recommended to stay here. Should I find myself back in Inverness, i would definitely stay again!

The Beaufort was wonderful - the staff was most kind, helpful, and accommodating. The room was comfortable and exactly what we needed as a home-base in Inverness for a few days of sight-seeing and enjoying the town. Ample on site parking, easy to walk into city centre, the restaurant seemed great and the evenings were entertaining with parties and music. Would stay here again!

I had stayed there about 10yrs ago & it was really nice. On arrival the doors were locked (20.45) phoned the number on the door to get let in. I thought the entrance looked really lovely. Got checked in & went to our room. Having a look around ( as you do) the bathroom was very dirty, especially in the shower. Got ready for bed, the bed was awful & very soft. Which you rolled into the middle. The carpet looked as though it had not been hoovered, dust under the bedside cabinets & bits on the carpet. If so…. They need a new hoover. In the morning went down for breakfast, no menu was given to show what the options were. The butter was rock solid that you couldn’t spread it on your toast, milk came in a sugar bowl, cooked breakfast was awful. I certainly will not be staying there again. Very disappointing.

Hotel was ok. Beds were not very comfortable, internet service was poor and quite frankly non existent in our suite. Staff was ok. We had booked online and they had issues finding our reservation payment, when called they were unable to answer clearly wether it had been resolved. Upon check in they asked for a card for incidentals, which is normal practice, but then proceeded to charge the reservation without our knowledge or approval because their internet system wasnt working properly. No folio was given upon checkout with details of charges made to our card,which seemed unusual. Not sure if this was an oversight or a sneaky way to charge our card without our permission. If they had been honest upon checkin regarding the situation with their intenet system we would have been happy to work with them,but taking our card information under false pretense is unacceptable. When i called the manager to ask for clarification he was extremely rude... i would not stay there again nor would i recommend it. Its too bad because the building is pretty and the location is convenient, but service makes the biggest part of a holiday and this was subpar.

The hotel and staff were very accommodating. They were able to book us immediately after our Airbnb was canceled and they were understanding and empathetic towards our situation. It was reassuring to have that level of service during an emergency. The rooms we stayed in were comfortable and the food was delicious. We will absolutely be staying at the Beaufort Hotel again and I will be recommending it to anyone staying in Inverness.

The staff in the Beaufort are simply the nicest, friendly and helpful people! We arrived early to the hotel, 4 hours prior to check in time as we were attending a family funeral. The two wonderful ladies on reception ensured they we were allocated a room right away - they were just so helpful and nice! The evening staff were so attentive and the food was just delicious! All in all a truly wonderful experience.

Very nice stay at this hotel. Comfortable and spacious, welcoming staff and great food / service. The hotel is just up the road from the castle and a short walk into the city centre. I arrived just as a large party was checking in at the front desk so headed to the bar to get a drink and wait for the queue to go down. One member of staff noticed this and checked me in and brought my room key over whilst I relaxed with a pint. Very accommodating. Will definitely be back ! 10/10

We arrived after a long day of travel only to find out that they had canceled our booking because they weren’t able to contact me the day prior to our stay (as we were traveling internationally my phone was on airplane mode) and made no effort to even send an email. So we arrived and were told our booking (which was still confirmed in Hotels.com) was incorrect and they had given our room away. Very poor from the company. However, Michael, who was working at the front desk made some calls to patrons who had yet to check in and because someone was no longer to make their booking he transferred their room to us. His customer service was the only good experience at this hotel, the rooms were cramped and humid. But easily walkable to town.

Staff was very accommodating. Had requested twin beds through Expedia, but got a single bed. They immediately changed rooms for us. We had car issues and difficulty using the emergency numbers for our rented car. Hotel staff acted as a go between to connect us to the people we needed to contact and were very instrumental in getting us on our way. We didn't try the restaurant on premises (had other plans with people we were meeting), but the menu looked inviting and the food we saw looked good.
