Columba Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality, Inverness

This hotel is in an excellent location and staff was very accommodating and friendly. Ate both nights in the onsite restaurant which offered a very friendly pub atmosphere and excellent food. A nice lounge on the second floor was a greatbspotvforcrelaxing over tea and sweets with windows overlooking the river. Rooms a bit small as the hotel is old but clean and comfortable.

The view of the River Ness and the Inverness Castle from our room was amazing. The breakfast buffet had great variety and was a good start to our busy days. We had almost no noise in the room, and it all came from outside (seagulls and some traffic noise) and not from other guest rooms. Staff was courteous and helpful. The room showed its age a little, but we found that charming and authentic - definitely not a bland, sterile chain hotel. We would stay there again.

Lovely hotel. However, they did not get our reservation correct even though a confirmation was received 6 months earlier. Staff wasn’t overly helpful in trying to remedy the situation.

Ugh.. thought I did my due diligence but yuck. Couldn’t wait to get out, we didn’t sleep at all. Bed was incredibly uncomfortable and bouncy. Pillows were like flat pancakes. You could hear everything going on outside and inside the hotel. It was so hot inside! The whole place felt dingy and cheap. Bathroom was gross. Don’t expect a cocktail from the bar either. Overall, the pictures way oversell this place. Positives were that it’s pretty from the outside and location is great.

The worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It was loud, dirty, the towels smelled, the bed was uncomfortable. I spoke to the manager and he said he would approve a refund through hotels.com and he never did.
