Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Heathmount Hotel is often praised for its spacious and comfortable rooms, some featuring large bathrooms with both bathtubs and showers. Its location offers convenient access to Inverness's city center by foot, while also providing free private parking. Guests appreciate the excellent breakfast and the presence of a nice bar and restaurant; however, some have occasionally noticed a smell of fried food in the hallways. Rooms are well-appointed, some including thoughtful extras like Tunnock's teacakes and filter coffee, and many find the hotel a good value for exploring the city.

I got a luxury double room! It featured double skylights and shaded too. Dining here was awesome. The pub has many whiskeys and gins to choose from.
I could not find any hot chocolate or biscuits in the room. That was a little disappointing.
