Staff very friendly and efficient. Sadly the cosmetics of the building are somewhat dated. Room was clean and tidy but again could really use a freshen up decor wise.

Great situation beside River Ness and facing castle.. Overall a bit tired and needing the refurb' which we were told was scheduled, when we last stayed. Lack of staff for restaurant at breakfast with empty trays not being replenished and no-one to ask. . One member of staff, who had been checking customers into restaurant, refilling bread to make toast seen to bring out half of a loaf and with 'bare hands' add to bread receptical (gloves or at very least tongs MUST be used). Rooms are comfortable enough.

I liked the hotel location. Staff were friendly. Very dusty public areas. The breakfast was definately not as shown on website, limited fruit items available and lots of greasy items. We chose not to have breakfast in hotel because of this even though we had paid for it.
