The Royal Highland Hotel

In the heart of Inverness, a city-center hotel steps from the Eastgate Shopping Centre and the Victorian Market. This eco-certified, historic address sits about 0.8 mi from Inverness Castle and Cathedral and is roughly 7 miles from Loch Ness — a prime base for Highland adventures.

The Royal Highland is the oldest hotel in Inverness, restored while keeping its Victorian character. The grand staircase that inspired the Titanic is the lobby focal point. You’ll find 84 spacious, high-ceiling bedrooms with antique-style furniture, solidly sized bathrooms and traditional soft furnishings.

On-site you’ll find a bar/lounge, café and multiple dining venues. Spa and health-suite facilities are available nearby, and active guests can book canoeing, tennis, hiking or fishing. Family-friendly touches include a children’s playroom. Complimentary Wi‑Fi is available in public areas and guestrooms.

Conference and banquet facilities plus quiet meeting rooms make this a practical choice for events and weddings. Concierge services, limo/town car service, express check-out and limited onsite parking are available.

Ash Restaurant and the Gallery serve fresh local produce and Highland flavors. A coffee shop/café and a lively bar/lounge add casual options. Continental breakfast is offered for a fee with weekend and weekday service hours.
