Our hosts Max and Angie made this a great stay. We felt like we were home, breakfast was amazing and decor of house was very eclectic . Our room was small not much room other than beds, but bath was clean. Angie even provided taxi service for us with drive to downtown, although it can be walked. Local area is full of things to do.

The man is friendly but his wife is rude.

The place itself is nice enough. Nice sized room, reasonably comfortable (though gets really cold during the off season because they only run the heaters from 7pm-10pm and 7am-10am. Breakfast is just cereal and cold toast unless you pay extra. The man is a nice enough fellow and seems genuinely interested in trying to make your stay a good one but his wife is very rude. I had no warning that they didn't accept credit cards and so on our check out day I had to go the bank and take an advance on my credit card to pay. The man was apologetic and even offered to drive me to the bank but his wife called out from the other room saying "No! Don't apologize to HIM. You told him on the phone no credit cards. He knew!" when in actuality the conversation we had only established to me that they couldn't process a non-present credit card (we'd discussed me giving him a credit card number over the phone to charge to). All in all, the woman's attitude during our stay left us with an unpleasant taste in our mouth and put a damper on that leg of our trip.

Rooms are not as advertised. Avoid this hotel.

Terrible. Room was advertised as having an en suite bathroom, however, the bathroom was actually across the hall in the foyer. Soaps provided were half empty bottles left by previous guests. Next morning when we went to take a showers, we each had to wait as other guests and/or family members used the bathroom that was meant to be ours. Having to wait out turn to use a bathroom that was meant to be ours alone was very annoying. closets were filled with the owner's wife's old clothes. Seems room is used by owners when guests aren't booked into it. Breakfast was very embarrassing for us. It was my understanding that breakfast was included and we were even asked what time we would like our breakfast ready the night before. When we went into the dining room the following morning we were told by the owner's wife that we were not entitled to a cooked breakfast. We could only have the juice and cereal on the bar and then, in front of the other guests eating, were scolded and asked, "how can you expect us to provide you breakfast when you got the room for so cheap?" We were told that because we paid a "hostel price" we should've known breakfast wouldn't be included. I was mortified and my friend was really embarrassed. I declined their breakfast and simply left the hotel. Another guest even commented to me how inappropriately we were treated.

Give it a chance

Budget B&B run by a lovely couple. We were in room 2 which doesnt have an ensuite but our private bathroom is just across the hallway which is not a problem. Heating was excellent and the hotel was nice and quiet. Its a bit out of town but the price easily makes up for that. Only criticism is that the breakfast wasn't very fresh...breads appeared stale and the orange juice was very cheap. Probably the worst continental breakfast we've ever had. The driveway is narrow but we have a small car so it was not a problem, although I'm not sure I'd say the same after a few beers!

Clean and comfortable B&B in Inverness

We had a nice one-night stay at the Glasdair bed and breakfast (with none of the problems some people have mentioned in earlier reviews) The owners were lovely and could not have been friendlier. The room we stayed in was very small but spotlessly clean with a nice bathroom and tea-and-coffee making facilities. A nice continental breakfast was served the next morning and we were asked if we wanted eggs or bacon. We stayed with a baby and the owners were very baby friendly. The property is approximately a 15-minute walk from the centre of Inverness, which is easily accessible by car. Our only issue (which is small) was that we did not stay in the room we had booked, but were given another much smaller room without explanation. ** There is car parking provided at the rear of the property, but as many other reviews have stated it is very very narrow. I would strongly recommend parking in the little street opposite the B&B (Island Bank) - there is free parking there all day and plenty of space. One of the home owners there apparently doesn't like anyone parking in the street and says it is not allowed but that is categorically incorrect. We all parked there fine for the entire stay **

Found this little nice place for our short stay in Inverness. Got a beautiful room with a great view, can't complain about that. One of the people from the staff was rude the whole stay for some reason (everyone else was great) and the bathroom had no lock, anyone could've entered whenever they felt like and of course it did happen. Not something you want to go through...I think they can afford a lock on the bathroom door, it's really not that expensive. The price was good though and the location is close to centre and the river :)

Very comfortable

Ideally located on the edge of Inverness, this beautiful property was exactly what we needed for the first night after a 10 hour drive to Scotland. The beds have memory foam mattresses which give an amazing nights sleep. The room had everything you needed for a stop over and was a 20 minute walk into the center of the city, the walk itself is along the rivers edge and has a lovely river pathway. The hosts were very welcoming and met us with enthusiasm at the door. The breakfast was excellent and this hotel is highly recommended.

Deeply disappointing- needs to try much harder

A very narrow entrance, which resulted in my car being scrapped. An owner who did not have details of my booking, would not take acfrd- but wanted cash, who was in his socks. Washing hanging all over the front garden- not shown in the picture- never again, thatnk you and a bit of a disgrace to Scottish B&Bs
