    Beds very uncomfortable could use new mattress es.

    The staff looked after us very well. We had dinner and breakfast there. The food is fresh and cooked perfectly. A great place to eat. The chef should be very proud. Dinner was of the best meals we have had on our trip in the UK this past month.

    The stairs are pretty narrow and steep, but I think that's just how it is in older buildings.

    The room was nice, pretty small but pretty clean, the bathroom as well. We had a restful night here and a good breakfast in the morning. It is pretty close to the center, about a 15minutes leisure walk to the main attractions and pubs. Overall, pretty good value for money.

    It was a nice place to stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. The meal choices in the evening were great and very plentiful. Good breakfast too. Location very close to the centre. If you didn't want to walk in or taxi there's a bus stop right outside.

    Room 7, mattress on the bed is Spring coiled and I could feel one of the springs poking through on my side of the bed. Quite an uncomfortable night's sleep. Could do with some updating, especially to the bathroom but was adequate for our needs for 1 night

    Great location. Booked here for the start of the NC500 as was close to the centre. Staff were welcoming and the choice at breakfast was good and delivered on taste too. The bar looked great, although we didn't get use of it for the one night as walked into the centre for food and drinks/entertainment. Parking a bonus

    My partner found the bed uncomfortable and the shower had no force behind it. A light misty rain would have been better.

    The shower didn't work properly, it was difficult to find the right temperature or the water pressure. Our room was on the road side so it was very noisy at night as there are cars and trains passing.

    It's quite close to the city center, a short stop over in Inverness. One of the young girls was very nice and offered us a hand to move luggage to 2nd floor.

    Staff was wonderful! Liz the manager was always helpful and kind. They definitely made you feel welcome and quick to help when needed. Would highly recommend the Chieftain for anybody traveling to Inverness. And let’s not forget to mention they have a wonderful breakfast for those needing some sustenance for a day of exploring! Let me say the Chieftain is a great choice to stay when in Inverness.

    I think they were a little short-staffed during our stay. The towel in my room had a big stain on it, but it was immediately swapped for a new one when I brought this to the staff's attention.

    The staff was kind and helpful! The breakfast is excellent!
