Boutique Hotels in Inverness
Inverness, the gateway to the Scottish Highlands, offers a compact set of boutique hotels that cluster around the city centre and the River Ness. Here, boutique doesn't mean one uniform style: it ranges from the Victorian grandeur of The Royal Highland Hotel, right beside the railway station, to the sleek, modern rooms of B&B Hotel Inverness with its bar-as-reception concept. The riverfront is anchored by The Glenmoriston Townhouse Hotel, whose dining scene draws locals, while Rocpool Reserve brings five-star luxury with a 10/10 facilities score.
Price-wise, you can start as low as £38 per night at The Royal Highland Hotel, but the typical nightly rate across these five properties is £176.
