The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a lovely view of the river Ness, but lacks heating. The service is good with attentive housekeeping and shuttle options available. The location, although not ideal without a car, is quiet and calm yet close to the city center. The dining experience could be improved with more options available. Overall, a pleasant stay with some minor drawbacks.

This hotel is on the side of the river, offering beautiful views and a lovely walk into the town. The rooms are reasonably large and well-appointed, although they could be cold in winter. The dining experience was good but could have offered a more varied menu. Overall, a cozy place to stay with a stunning location.

Upon arrival, the room was freezing, but overall the hotel offers a full-size table conveniently placed in the middle of the room, positioned across from the bedroom. The location is great, just a few kilometers up the road to the city center, although it seems a bit far due to the narrow access path between the house and fence. The dining experience is heavenly delicious and abundant, especially with the massive breakfast served. However, the river Ness view from the hotel and its proximity to town make up for any minor inconvenience. The service is top-notch, encompassing housekeeping and shuttle services, but the paid shuttle might deter budget-conscious travelers.

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel overall. The rooms felt a bit cramped for the size of the beds, but the view of the river was nice. It was still a bit cold in the room, although it improved from when we first arrived. The family photos added a lovely touch.

The hotel is quite a way out from the town center and not within walking distance, which can be inconvenient. However, the calm and quiet atmosphere near the river was pleasant. It's a short drive to the central location with a nice view of the River Ness.

The dining experience was a bit awkward and forced. The buffet breakfast had limited choices, including Continental and cooked breakfast options. Hygiene could be improved with attendants not washing their hands.
