Such a unique place to stay near Inverness. We loved spending three nights at this historic spot…read moreand liked the pretty garden and nearby cows. Breakfast daily was very convenient and we had dinner one night for our large group of ten which was very good. It's a lovely property with spacious rooms. Liked the Nespresso machine in the room and whisky bar. Shout out to Jake who was super friendly and provided great recommendations in town.

We left early for planned events a couple times and they brought breakfast to our room at 6am and wanted to at 3am when we left for the airport. Had a bad day so they gave us a couple flasks of whiskey. The area is historic and beautiful. They warned us that while Uber shows it was there, they are not and they charge, then never show up. The only thing I could say was a little disappointing was no AC so we kept the windows opened as it was cool enough and they advertised a small fridge but they had none. Lastly, we prepaid for breakfast but if you wanted something other than a Scottish breakfast, you had to pay for it like waffles or pancakes. Other than that, a perfect stay.

We stayed at the Mansion House Hotel last night (July27th, 2019). The Mansion itself is gorgeous…read more It looks like a small castle. I wouldn't recommend staying the night but I would recommend a reservation for dinner here just to have the experience. The negative: I felt like the price wasn't worth the stay. The pool was not open. The salon and spa were not operating during our stay either. These were some things I was looking forward to. I made the mistake of assuming and not asking because they are featured amenities when booking the hotel. There were also a few little things amiss. For example: trash behind the bed, the handle bar for the shower bar was missing a gasket and kept falling, the trash can in the bathroom was broken, the room was really hot (they did have a fan). Just a lot of small things that add up. The positive: The breakfast, dessert, and drinks we had here were delicious! The bar is pretty well stocked. I have a dairy allergy and my waiter and the cook took care to make sure there were no cross contamination's. The area around the mansion is gorgeous. This is a great place to take some fun pictures! Overall we did enjoy our stay. The staff was lovely. They do all leave for the night which is something to note. The place just needs more love and care.

We only stayed one night, but really enjoyed our stay here…read more The grounds and exterior are really beautiful. Our room was charming, the bed incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was one of the nicest we had during our whole 3 week trip to the UK. Breakfast was delicious as well! The interior of the mansion is beautiful, but clearly is in need of some care. For example, we noticed an incredibly large rip in the felt on the pool table, there were a few spots where we noticed wear and tear on the walls, and our bedspread had a few spots where either someone burned it or it just wore through. We chose not to have dinner at the mansion because even though the menu at the restaurant looked amazing, it was VERY expensive. I'm very happy we chose to stay at the Mansion, and hope to visit again - it just needs a tiny facelift to be perfect!

The Hotel claims to be the number one whisky bar in the world. Certainly the best I have been to.

Very nice, very modern, extremely clean, and a pleasant experience. Our beds (we had twins) were super plush and comfy, and the room decor was adorable. Her breakfast the next morning was outstanding. The fresh fruit salad, fresh Scottish farm eggs, and her homemade lemon curd were out of this world. She also puts homemade shortbread that's to die for in the rooms. We'll be back for sure on our next Scottish adventure!

I stayed at the Braeval Hotel on the strength of its bar/restaurant the Bandstand Bar, which was a…read morerecent finalist in the Scotland Pub of the Year award from CAMRA. The check in process was quick and efficient, we had booked in advance for the three-person room (a single room and a joining double with a shared bathroom) and with CAMRA 10% discount it was £99 for bed and breakfast. Not bad at all given that the breakfast was lovely and consisted of a full cooked breakfast and unlimited cereal, fruit, juice and porridge. The rooms were a bit dated with a sink in the room too which was pretty random, but the views were excellent and the hotel nice and quiet. Nairn itself is an interesting place, there's a mix of local pubs, wine bars and then this place which stands out for its excellent beer selection and friendly staff.

The building "Castle Esque" motif with large stately interior, echoing a time gone by. The staff friendly and accommodating. Our dinner was as Scottish should be elegantly simple. After dinner a sunset stroll past the cattle slowly grazing on the front grounds and neighboring hounds freely wandering and greeting guests. Our room was simple offering a warm home style. I could have sat in one of the upholstered arm chairs in the bright sunlight and typed what I'm typing now. Probably with a wee bit more wonder and romance woven in me wording. The hotel situated on stunning open grounds, which is a just mere slice of stately land that it once beheld. Stories of celebrity and dignitary were impressive. My favorite, Charlie Chaplain would spend quiet summers here away from celebrity fanfare. If you're a lucky guest to have his own room, you'll only know by seeing his Bowler hung on a peg in the room.

We were so pleased that they were the place we landed on. They were so friendly, the food was amazing, and they didn't rush us out, even though the kitchen was closing shortly after we arrived. We were staying nearby and sad that we weren't staying there. Our group had the crab cake, king prawns, and smoked salmon starters. For entrees we had the steak, bolognese, venison, burger and steak pie. Then several had the brownie and sticky toffee pudding. I have to say that we'd been having sticky toffee pudding everywhere we've been and this was, by far, the best we've had. I didn't get pictures of the desserts because they were eaten so quickly. Don't hesitate to go here.
