This was our third visit and we will return. Great bar with a terrific selection of beers. The atmosphere is special, so friendly. The food is fine and plentiful, the breakfast sets you up for a days sightseeing.

I experienced a warm and genuine welcome from Steve and staff, their guests and regulars. The rooms were clean and comfortable; the cooked breakfast was top-notch; and the evening menu consistently delivered hearty dishes - including a highly recommended Haggis Pizza! But even better than the menu is the phenomenal range of "Ness" beer which is brewed locally, and proudly,... More

The pub in the hotel was recommended by the ticket guy at the Urquhart Castle. Great fish & chips, very friendly patrons and staff, and very nice microbrew beer. Could have stayed all day sampling the various brews, but had to drive (on the wrong side of the road mind you) back to Inverness. Plaque on the wall read Pub... More

Called in for a Bar lunch, very friendly staff,good food,excellent real ale and dog friendly in the bar. CAMRA Bar of the year 2012. Worth a visit, although the bar could do with an update, but I believe this may be in hand.

Stayed overnight on a groupon deal, couldn't fault any aspect of the stay, great bar, friendly welcome and really good well cooked food. Usually there would be a "but" or "however" absolutely not, real coal fire, dog, ale.... What more could anybody want??

Just visited the pub at the hotel. It was staffed by a very knowledgable and quick witted Scotman. We enjoyed some fantastic food, great drinks and numerous laughs with the bartender. I can see why this won the Highlands & Islands Pub of the Year in 2003 and 2005.
