The carpets are wearing out. Some of the furniture need repairs Breakfast was large and delicious. Disappointed that view of Castle and river was blocked by scaffolding. Loved the big bathtub. There were many cobwebs on the ceiling.

The property was undergoing extensive exterior renovations when we arrived - which from an aesthetics perspective was not great but did not really interfere with our stay. The hotel was within reasonable walking distance of trains, buses, shopping, live entertainment, dining options, etc. One criticism was the stairs / lift situation. The lift takes you part way to your room (we were on the 3rd floor). Then there are stairs to navigate and narrow doorways to get your luggage through. Managing heavy duffle bags up stairs and through multiple sets of narrow doorways was a chore for seniors. There was no mention of that in the property write-up.

No parking. It was just an old building! We wandered and found the lift, but still had stairs to go down before finding our room. The view from our room had a wall. Everything creaked. We heard everyone, walking about! Too expensive. It’s , not for us, again!

Property is currently under some renovation so there is scaffolding around most of the building but we never heard anyone working on it. Great location with a beautiful walk along the river Ness.

Room was comfortable but not aesthetically pleasing. Window in bathroom stuck and as an elderly person was unable to close it. No parking onsite. Was not a very inviting hotel and feel it could fo with some modernization.
