Scottish Highlands Golf Vacations

Location is the best part of the hotel. Walking distance to all city sites. On first impressions the exterior is old and run down and on entry the tired, stained and musty smell of carpet and furniture hits you. We had a standard room with no aircon and slightly dirty and smelly but thankfully windows that let fresh air in and we had the magnificent view of the river. Although bathroom was tight and not long renovated the shower was good. The cleaners were inconsistent and instead of replacing towels off the floor after showering replaced them on the rails and failed to make bed. The staff were ok. For the amount charged this hotel really needs some care and a total renovation.

Rocpool Reserve is a beautiful boutique hotel in a great location. We stayed in one of the suites with a private hot tub and sauna, and the room itself was spacious with a very nice bathroom. We were especially looking forward to enjoying the hot tub and sauna. The service was outstanding from start to finish. The front desk staff was warm, welcoming, and always happy to help. The breakfast experience was the best of the four hotels we stayed at during our two-week vacation in Scotland. The chef happily prepared anything we wanted, and the quality was excellent. We were traveling with a picky 16-year-old, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate her preferences, making breakfast one of the highlights of our stay. The location is another major plus. It’s an easy walk to Inverness Castle and the city center, there are plenty of food delivery options nearby, and the parking was convenient with easy access in and out. The biggest drawback was that the hotel does not have air conditioning. We visited during an exceptional heat wave, and the small fan provided was not enough to cool the room. It made sleeping nearly impossible, and unfortunately the suite was so warm that we couldn’t enjoy the private hot tub or sauna—the very amenities we had booked the room for. I have no doubt this suite would be incredible during the fall or winter when the temperatures are cooler. Overall, Rocpool Reserve offers exceptional service, an outstanding breakfast, beautiful suites.

Excellent experience overall! Super friendly and helpful staff and beautiful setting with a Secret Garden and Heilan Coos. : )

This hotel was conveniently located near the center of town and everything you may wish to see in Inverness is just a few minute walk. There is minimal parking at the hotel, but the multi level city park is an easy 6 minute walk, even with roller bags. We would recommend staying there and if we come back, it will be our location of choice.
