Loch Ness Inn has found the balance of maintaining the charm without sacrificing modern amenities. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Our favourite part was having breakfast downstairs in the morning à la carte. And the Internet connection was much stronger than other places we have stayed.

Easy and welcoming check in. Our room was spotlessly clean, warm and very comfortable. We knew in advance that the room was on the smaller side but was nonetheless more than adequate for our needs. The en-suite shower room was a good size with quality soaps and towels provided. Breakfast was included in our room rate and was superb - lots of choice and delicious. All of the staff that we dealt with were pleasant and helpful. We will look forward to staying here again in the future when the opportunity arises. Excellent!

A little secluded which was a little hard to get around but it’s right on the bus line so do the research of bus schedules and such if you are not an experienced traveler like us. Also make sure to tell the bus to stop when traveling in to town or you’ll end up about a mile up the road by the museum. Uber also is not a thing here, only private taxi services which we were not familiar with and ChatGPT and Google weren’t helpful, only the staff once we got there. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we were able to make the hike to the castle after one of the friendly ladies working there gave us directions (a little over a mile there and back and is a straight shot) but it’s right on a hiking path with some of the best scenery I’ve seen during my trip with views of the mountain and loch. Rooms were lock and key which was refreshing. Bar and restaurant were beautiful and food was top notch. Overall a good experience. Just wish the area itself was a little more navigational with uber or taxis to make it to some of the other sites because it’s a very beautiful town and wished I would have stayed another day in that area.
The hiking path. Mostly flat but make sure you’ve got some good hiking shoes on for a little more than a mile hike to the castle.
Fence along the trail with breath taking views of the mountains, loch, and farms.
Another view from the trail.

We loved our stay here! We had a family quad (7/8) with 2 bedrooms and a lovely bathroom. The beds were cozy and we slept very well. The shower was FANTASTIC! The dinner menu is good and our meals were delicious. The staff are terrific - they are warm and welcoming and really helped us when we left an expensive electronic device behind and needed help have it shipped to our next hotel. Looking for Nessie? This is the place to stay!

We had a great welcome. Very happy with our room. Comfortable and quiet. Not a lot of dining options so reservations are recommended unless you want some yummy pizza. It’s close by and was so tasty! Breakfast at the Inn was excellent. Many great options. We’re loved that the inn was only a 5 minute drive from the Urquhart Castle.

The Loch Ness Inn was a lovely and cozy place to stay while we were in the Highlands. The restaurant is world class! The food there is absolutely delicious! The location was great for exploring the local environment: the Loch Ness Centre, the castle ruins, and hiking trails to waterfalls and Craig are all within walking distance.
