Property was clean and bed was comfortable. Access was good. Breakfast option was nice with both included continental breakfast and hot options for a fee. There was a strange odor from the bathroom area but it was clean, fully usable. Bed was comfortable but room was tight for two people.

The room was spotless and the staff was amazing. The food there is incredible as well. Please make a note that there is not an elevator so if you have any issues carrying your suitcases up a flight upstairs or two, you may want to reconsider. Would definitely stay there again!

Very cute and clean room. Not large, but was very nice. Above the restaurant with easy check in and check out with a good location. We did have a car and the closest overnight parking is in a ramp about a 5-8 minute walk away so you are aware. It cost about 8 pounds for a night. We also dined in the restaurant as well, which was really convenient and the food was mediocre. We had the continental breakfast in the morning which did not include any hot food.

The rooms were fantastic! Clean, comfy and modern. The beds were extremely comfortable and warm. We loved our in room tea/biscuit upon arrival. The staff was welcoming and knowledgeable. We definitely would stay here again. The one night we had supper in the restaurant was not great. Our soup was heavily salted and bread was cold and bit stale. But to be fair, we came in late and tired. Possibly if we had arrive earlier may have had a better experience. Overall, a great experience 5/5 for the hotel. Will definitely be back.

They let us check-in early, offering us complimentary snacks and breakfast during our stay. The room was beautiful and cozy and every clean—would 100% recommend staying above this pub.

The Black Friars has been our best hotel experience so far in our 2 week vacation in Scotland. Our room was very clean, comfortable, and had a lovely rainshower bathroom feature. One can hear some noise from the hallway & a room above. Not a deal breaker. There is no elevator. The onsite restaurant has a nice selection of entrees, very good tasting food and is reasonably priced.My traveling companion has high praise for the braised short ribs and their truffle fries with Parmesan cheese! Next, Black Friars is located in area close to the train and bus stations, Old Leakey's Bookstore, and a variety of shops. It is within easy walking distance of Inverness Castle and several interesting churches. I would certainly stay here again and recommend it's facilities to others.

Lovely spot above a beautiful historic pub. Was plenty quiet enough, and the family room provided plenty of space and privacy for us. Staff was lovely and helpful. Do note that there is not a lift/elevator and that all rooms are up at least one flight of stairs in case you have mobility issues. Would definitely stay here again!

This is certainly a hidden gem located in Inverness. Upon arrival it was noticeable how clean the property looked. We were welcomed by a lovely young girl who checked us in and explained everything about our stay. The hallway up to our room was beautifully decorated and very modern looking. Our room was lovely, very spacious and it was spotless. The added bonus was the basket of goodies left in the room for us, my husband was very grateful indeed. We had continental breakfast as part of our stay and there was plenty to choose from. All in we enjoyed our overnight stay and we would definitely recommend the hotel to others 😀
