Extremely pleasant and hospitable staff with old timey charm. While not an updated facility, it was clean and comfortable. The free breakfast service was an added perk. I would absolutely recommend it and would stay again should I return to Inverness.

This hotel is right on Church Street and right in the middle of all the shops, pubs, etc. The owner was absolutely fantastic and so accommodating. We left very early for Edinburgh and he left out a kettle to make coffee, toaster, bread, cereals and other snacks because we were missing the breakfast that was included in the price.

This is a family run property with owners who are very helpful and friendly. Breakfasts were delicious. The property is older, located in the historic downtown area of Inverness, very convenient to the railway station, bus lines, tourist facilities and many nearby restaurants, including several with live music. Our room was large and had a very recently renovated bathroom, opening windows and comfortable beds. The only disadvantage was the lack of an elevator.

The guy that greeted me was very hospitable and nice to talk to. He made me feel very welcome and also allowed me to leave my belongings on the premise before checking in and after i checked out, so i wouldn't be carrying them with me everywhere. If traveling to Inverness in future, i would definitely be considering staying in this hotel again. Also, the entire hotel is really well decorated, and has a lot of interesting pictures of Scottish heritage and the different clans which I enjoyed looking at

This is a family run hotel that met my needs perfectly. It was a very easy walk from the Inverness train station with lots of shopping, restaurants, and sites within walking distance. Leaky Bookstore is very close too! The gentleman who runs the hotel is fantastic. He insisted on carrying my suitcase up the stairs. Service was excellent, and breakfast was lovely. If I visit Inverness again, I will definitely book this hotel again!

Staying at the Macdougall Clansman Hotel was probably the highlight of our Scotland trip that my fiancé and I took. We traveled to Glasgow, Edinburgh and finally Inverness where we stayed here. We had the best experience from check in and meeting Ian. He was so accommodating and kind, he truly made our experience exceptional. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious as well. Thank you for having us! I definitely recommend this place! We loved it! Definitely will be back!

An absolute delight. Traditional and down to earth. I was made to feel welcome as soon as I arrived. Iain went above and beyond and was helpful all along. There are no frills here. If you want a hotel that’s the same in every city then go there. Breakfast is simple but cooked to order and perfect. Rooms are basic but very clean. All I needed in a stay, clean, confortable abs friendly - I will recommend this hotel to others I know who will appreciate the very friendly and down to earth ambience.

This little place is an absolute gem. It is very central and easily walkable from the train station. There are about a million dining and shopping options in the surrounding blocks (make sure you make a dinner reservation Th-Su in the summer)!! Pretty standard amenities in an old building, but what sets them apart is the service. Made to order breakfast in the morning?? Yes please! They were very accommodating with early departures for day tours, having a grab-and-go breakfast selection. They were also very accommodating with allowing us to leave our bags for a while the day we checked out. It is clear that they very much care about their guests’ experiences and are so kind. Would absolutely return.

The owners of the property are very kind and sweet. The breakfast is delicious and they will leave you breakfast is you have to go out early to a tour. It is walkable from every area of town and very close to the train and bus station. There is shopping and wonderful restaurants all around. The street that it is on is busy on the weekend and you can hear people shouting and singing late into the night. I fell asleep despite being a pretty light sleeper. The place is older and quirky which is part of the fun. It could use an update the section I stayed in smelled extremely strong of body odor and me and all my belongings smelled of mildew. By the time I left it was starting to bother me. It smells like that when you enter the property as well. I have allergies and sensitivity to smell so that is something to consider.

When you first arrive at the MacDougall Clansman Hotel, you might notice that the property feels a bit dated. However, what it lacks in appearance it more than makes up for with incredibly kind and personal service. Iain was such a gracious host — always checking in to see if we needed anything and making sure we were well taken care of. His warmth and hospitality truly made our stay memorable. The location is excellent — very central, yet surprisingly quiet — and there’s even a superb bookshop right next door, which was a lovely bonus. Overall, this is a charming and comfortable place to stay in Inverness, thanks to the genuine care and hospitality of the people who run it.
