We visited here in 2019 and the staff was so amazing that they set the tone for our whole trip. Peter was so helpful and seemed to always be there working. We visited again September 2023 and were sad to miss Peter but his staff was still excellent.

Tired and needs a refit. Smells from the kitchen go up to the rooms and there is a lingering smell of stale smoke. This is a place that is a pub first and hotel second.

Outside is a little worn, but inside is clean and updated. Not handicap friendly. Too many stairs and they were narrow and steep. Bedding was great, room amenities were ok (no blow dryer provided). Rooms are upstairs and a little stuffy with no a/c. Dining was a little slow but good. Great staff and very friendly.

The proprieter, Peter, was astonishingly helpful. We arrived in the middle of a Saturday afternoon with a few hours to spare, and he volunteered (we would never have thought to ask) to drive us to the Culloden Battlefield and also to Clava Cairn (the stones that inspired the time travel in Outlander). We did not even know about the stones being that close. He stayed with us at the stones, dropped us off at the battlefield and told us how to use the bus to get back to Inverness. This part of our journey has become the highlight of our trip to Scotland, all because of Peter's generosity. The hotel itself is not 5-star (because of amenities, not friendliness of staff), but it is clean and the location is amazing. It was far more than we were expecting. If you are looking for an authentic Scottish experience near some interesting and important sites, I highly recommend the Smithton Hotel! (easy to get to from inverness either by car or by public transport).

Was put in an attic room. If you are any taller than 5' 10" beware. Coffee in room was undrinkable. Small bathroom. Breakfast selection very poor. Continental was just toast. Nothing else. Fruit selection was chopped up watermelon.

Like an unfunny episode of Faulty Towers. Rooms are not spotless, toilet doesn't flush properly. Food was tasteless, bland and below mediocre. Tasted and looked like food came from a can. Staff were clueless and lifeless. Could not get out here fast enough. Will not recommend this place. Over priced.

We stayed for 2 nights and the hotel exceeded my expectations (for the money I paid). If you have a transport of your own and don't need to be in the centre of the city, this is a good option to consider.

No compassion or understanding.
The event in which myself and party were meant to attend was cancelled due to the Queens passing. Contacting the hotel at 9am the day before our stay I let them know we would no longer be able to stay. Given the circumstances were out with my control I was horrified that the hotel insisted on me paying %100, the full £582.80.
