Ardconnel House

Nice little house in a quiet street, close to the city center, bus and train station (only a few minutes to walk). Lovingly furnished rooms, small and cozy, comfortable beds, everything very clean. Decent and sufficient breakfast buffet. Very friendly landlady. This was our second time as guests and we felt at home again.

I thought the B in in B And B would include a hardy breakfast. You could get a cooked breakfast for an added charge of 7 to 10 pounds. Mattress was thin and uncomfortable and shower luke warm water. We stayed in the top floor. Elaine was lovely and the location is great. Parking during rhe day just be in paid lot.

Lovely stay, friendly and welcoming host. Great location to town. Parking outside accommodation. Would highly recommend. Inverness a great place to visit for shops, bars, restaurants and scenery. Elaine gave us some ideas of places to go, particularly the Castle Tavern, lovely pub with food.

This is an excellent B&B and the only reason I give a 4 and not a 5 is I was on the second floor. The room was excellent as was the shower room. I will definitely stay again. The location was great with steps down to the town centre. The owners were friendly and helpful.

The rooms were spacious and clean. There was an en-suite bathroom, which was great. The house was in a fantastic location to walk around the town, and was close to the train station as well. The staff was friendly and helpful. A wonderful stay!

Location was very convenient to downtown Inverness (walking distance). Located in a neighborhood that requires permit parking, our only option was the public lot down the block. Parking was free overnight and we were leaving early, so we did not have to pay for parking, but that could be a major inconvenience for someone staying longer. Breakfast only served from 8-9am and we were leaving early, so missed that. Host was friendly enough, but we only saw her for about 60 seconds to get the key and pay in cash as requested (no receipt provided). The room was well appointed but the bathroom, and shower especially, were very small. Overall, I guess I would recommend the place for a quick stay in Inverness, but you could probably find something that caters a bit more to travelers with more amenities.

My room was clean and had everything I needed in it. The bed was a little hard. The owner was friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was more than enough.

Lovely guest house situated very close to Inverness town. Host was friendly and welcoming.Room had everything you could need and was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Had a good night's sleep. Breakfast was lovely and had a good variety of choice.Would stay again and can recommend.

A family of three travelling from Australia and returning to Scotland to spend 4 weeks travelling Scotland staying in B&Bs and airbnbs. This was our experience at the Ardconnel guesthouse in Inverness. At check in we were welcomed by Elaine and given the key to our family room (sleeps 3 for a 2 night stay). The room was small but was relatively clean and warm. The B&B is also conveniently located close to the town centre for places to eat. The bathroom facilities were less than adequate as they were cramped and the shower was appalling. It was noisy, a tiny space making it difficult to wash yourself properly and the water pressure was abysmal. The next mornings breakfast was underwhelming and only offered between 8-9am. This would make it very difficult for tourists who sometimes need an early start. We had the continental which consisted of pastries wrapped in plastic (which were squished and tasted stale), lack lustre cereals and ‘fresh fruit’ consisting of half a bowl of Blueberries and a partly opened container of grapes from a supermarket with the wrapping still hanging off the container. Toast, tea and coffee supplied but the food hygiene was questionable, crumbs and food scraps still evident with half a loaf of bread still in packaging by the toaster. Whilst we were told breakfast was between 8-9, Elaine was still unwrapping the fruit and prepping the hot water well past 8am. The B&B is situated in an area with resident parking only, however, there was mention in previous reviews of parking permits being made available by the host to allow you to park on the street for free. However, we were told that there were only two available parking permits both being used by people staying longer than us. Therefore, we had to use the paid parking at the end of the street requiring top up in the morning and evening. Additionally dragging our bags and belongings down the road and up three flights of stairs. We decided to leave early the next day to avoid the previous days breakfast experience, so we decided to pay for our stay in cash (as preferred by the host) the night before. We asked for a receipt of this cash payment at the time of payment and was told it would be sent by email as the printer was broken. As we were paying cash, it was important that we received a receipt for this at the time of payment to ensure our bill was settled. We attempted to get this email from Elaine throughout the evening but could not get hold off her. As a last resort, we emailed her to remind her but received nothing. We’d also like to note here that as per the instructions in our room in the case of an emergency, we were to contact the host by ringing the bell on the ground floor or call the mobile number provided. All these instructions proved fruitless as between 4pm-8pm we were unsuccessful in contacting anyone in charge of the B&B. If there had been an emergency in any of the 7 rooms (fully occupied as there were no vacancies) we wonder what action would
