A lovely little hotel across the street from the water in a quiet part of town. Great value with a very nice on premises restaurant. Would stay here again in a second.

The restaurant was good, and very busy on a Friday night, but we thought it was quite expensive. Good breakfast. The location is lovely, and very convenient to get to the airport. We'd certainly go again.

Beautiful hotel and restaurant! Staff were very kind and helpful. Though it’s an older hotel, the place was very clean and the food was excellent! Ate dinner and breakfast here, both meals were very good. The views are also very stunning.

Perfect choice for places near Inverness
We loved our stay at the North Kessock Hotel! The owners and staff were so helpful and friendly throughout our stay. The rooms were a little bit small but overall very comfortable and cozy. We opted to stay a little outside town rather than in central Inverness, and happy we did. Lovely location with great views from the hotel and nice walks in the area. Still very convenient location with easy free parking nearby. We did eat at the restaurant one night and everyone in our group felt it was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone staying near Inverness and we'll stay here again.

Superior Twin Room - NC500
We had the Superior Twin room and the view outside is very pleasant. Large and clean room to accommodate everything for our stay. We stayed on our last night for the NC500. Staff are lovely and generous. Bar is great for decent selection of beers and wines. Pool table is also pretty good.

Great Hotel
Great hotel to start the NC500 on my motorbike. Great spot on the shore. Great staff. My only niggle which is a personal one is that every Scottish breakfast should have Lorne sausage and haggis. Sadly this wasn't on the menu. Still, a very good breakfast!

Disliked: Amenities
The bed was comfortable and the views out of our room window was decent. There is no front desk. There is a bell that you ring or you walk into one of the restaurants to speak to a staff member. There is no elevator, so if you have a lot of heavy luggage and depending on where your room is, it will be a bit of a task to get them up the stairs. A lot of small winding hallways. There was noticeable black mold and grime in the bathroom along on the shower wand, shower head and walls as well as the grab bar. Street parking was relatively easy.

The owners and staff are welcoming, helpful, and provide a hospitality that is second to none. The food they provide is delicious and if you are lucky enough to be there on Sunday, get the roast. The view from the front porch is amazing and we were fortunate enough to see the dolphins. Our favorite stop in all of Scotland.
