Our main building, The Waterside, comprises 28 delightfully appointed en-suite bedrooms, several of which come with stunning views across the River Ness. Our adjacent townhouse, Felstead, is a beautiful early Victorian villa which has 7 en-suite bedrooms with the majority having picturesque river views. Having been recently refurbished, our bedrooms enjoy a comfortable, stylish charm with all of the mod cons available to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. For our business customers, we have recently undergone a major upgrade to our wi-fi facility which is now the best in the Highlands with high speed connection available in all bedrooms and public areas within the hotel. This facility is free to all hotel guests. Our conservatory restaurant, RefleXions, is one of the most spectacularly situated restaurants in Inverness with a view of the River Ness from every table.
