An older manor hotel, located about 20 mins walk from Fort Augustus . We had a room on the third floor with no view , comfortable but with a shower over a bath needing a bath mat as very slippery and with very little water pressure. No lift so carrying heavy bags for older people in our group was an issue. Full menu - which our group did not have - looked good . Our groups restricted menu was very average and did not cater from our vegetarian member. 2 nights accomodation with no servicing of our room - older tired hotel- dont stay more than one night - if at all. Not a Scottish experience.

A romantic hotel reminiscent of bygone eras, in a beautiful setting on the shores of Loch Ness. Nice staff, excellent cuisine.

We had a pleasant stay at The Inch Hotel ? the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location overlooking Loch Ness is simply stunning. A special shout-out to Mukesh Kumawat in the restaurant who was incredibly attentive and made our meals more enjoyable with his warm service. The Scottish breakfast, while neat and well-presented, was just about average?nothing extraordinary. One minor drawback: the rooms felt a bit stuffy in the summer heat and could benefit from better ventilation. Overall, it?s a lovely historic lodge with great staff, beautiful views, and a tidy stay?just wish the rooms were a little fresher.

The Inch is officially categorised as a 3* hotel. I give them 5* on their performance in that particular football division. Firstly beautiful location and views (for sure from some rooms and of course the public rooms). Also kerb appeal, old traditional building near the loch. Also, old style service from a smart suited concierge. Breakfast and dinner were good. This is not a 'bling' place but a 3* hotel keen on raising their game. We had a room at the back. No loch views but great skylights with views of woodlands. It was quite large and indeed a very large bathroom with skylight. Our experience was very good here.

Decent stay at the Inch hotel. As expected from a 3-star hotel.
Pros :)
- comes with full Scottish breakfast the next days and buffet area has a selection of juice and pastries
- room is spacious and neat/clean (just be aware the vibe is vintage so carpet and things maybe look dated)
- staff very friendly and polite, helpful!
- hotel has lovely view of Loch Ness, 5 mins drive to Fort Augustus (not suggested to walk for 20 mins)
- comes with amenities such as body wash and shampoo, however no toothbrush toothpaste or slippers
- free parking space outside the hotel
Cons :(
- walls are thin, so noises along the corridor are very annoying especially at night
- doesn?t come with toothbrush or toothpaste nor slippers in the room
- water pressure in the shower is inconsistent, so is the hot water supply - sometimes is hot sometimes is cold
- maybe not convenient for everyone as most rooms are on 1/F so require to walk up the stairs with luggages if any

Good hotel but not worth the high rate = expected a lot more for what we paid.
The room was good, as was breakfast.
Fort August & its pubs/restaurants are a short & nice15 minute walk.

Food at the restaurant is good although a bit pricey.
The breakfast was great and included !
As per the rooms, they were a bit outdated.
The manager and all the staff were amazing, they were really nice, helpful and always up for a good laugh.

I was worried that the pizza on the menu was a tourist trap for Americans, but the food turned out to be fantastic. Also a good breakfast and nice room. One simple improvement could be some coffee/tea and biscuits when you arrive in the afternoon.

A lift would be what is still missing. The climb to the second floor has classic charm, as does the water heater in the shower. But these are minor matters. Beautiful house in a top location, super quiet even though only a kilometer from the center, great kitchen and a fantastic view from the bench in front of the house. I would go there again ??
Rooms: Beautiful furniture and comfortable bed, quiet, water heater in the bathroom requires some sensitivity ?, lounge and dining room beautifully furnished.
Nearby activities: One kilometer to the center with tourism and shopping, lots of things to see and a whole range of hiking trails.
Walkability: It's easy to walk into town and you'll find everything you need for your stay there.
Food and drinks: Good cuisine, you can eat well here every evening. Very decent breakfast and good ??
Noteworthy details: Nice parking lot with plenty of parking spaces even for larger vehicles.

One of the worse places we stayed in. It wasn?t clean, breakfast wasn?t great. There wasn?t place for us to have breakfast with our dog. Charged £20 per day for our dog but didn?t even offer water or a sausage. Wifi was terrible as well. Massively over priced and wouldn?t recommend it to anyone!

Beautiful hotel on Loch Ness. Gorgeous property and great service. If you?re driving through Scotland, this is a must stop for anyone.
