Kingsmills Hotel, hotel in Inverness

Set in 4 acres of beautiful gardens, the Kingsmill Hotel has a spa, a swimming pool and free parking. Inverness city centre is just one mile away.

The garden rooms with the patios are just lovely. Really nice, quiet little area to sit outside your room. The meal at night in the restaurant/conservatory area was very good. We were grateful there was a gravel carpark that was nearer our room as the carpark itself gets a bit crowded. We arrived on a Thursday evening quite late and there was a Psychic Night coming out as we pulled into the carpark. It took us about 20mins to navigate around the minibuses & taxis but the girl I dealt with behind reception couldn’t have been better! She was so helpful!

FAQs about hotels in Inverness







Gateway to the Highlands and Loch Ness

A jewel with historic buildings and charming streets, Inverness is surrounded by a typical Scottish Highland landscape. It is located 10 km from Loch Ness, along the mouth of the Ness River and the Moray Firth coast. It is regarded as the northernmost city in the United Kingdom, and capital of the Highlands.

Take a walk around the Old Town, visit St Andrew’s Cathedral, and make a stopover in the charming Victorian Market. The Old High St Stephen's Church is the oldest building in town, and has been a religious site since pre-Christian times.

The Inverness Castle overlooks the river and is nowadays the seat of the Sheriff Court. A hotel in Inverness city centre is ideal to enjoy the different cultural and recreational activities in town.

Watch the Atlantic salmon jumping out the river near the Ness Islands, and try to catch a glimpse of the famous monster of Loch Ness. The Cairngorms National Park is 40 km away, and Chanonry Point is the best spot to watch dolphins, just 24 km away.

Inverness hotels include a large offer of small, cosy guest houses, B&B’s, and rural cottages, allowing a closer contact with the nature. Don’t miss the Inverness accommodation deals on Booking.com!

    We only used Inverness as a central location for activities that we carry out i.e. following a Steam Train that was visiting the area so had no reason to visit anywhere in Inverness except for a couple of local eateries.

    Good shopping centre, great riverside walks, historic buildings ( we didn't get chance to visit) and visiting loch Ness, this is 20minute bus ride away, personally I would recommend viewing from the bus as the cruise was nice but not good value for money.

    It's an amazing city!

    It's an amazing city! It's so beautiful, not big and crowdy, but at the same time you can find so many things to do there. There are lots of places for a nice walk: along the river Ness, city center, Caledonial canal, woods. Loch Ness is just 20 minutes drive, castles, beaches are all not far. The Botanical garden is small but really nice and it's free! I enjoyed to visit Eden Court every evening - to watch a cinema or for a concert. There are lot of nice restaurants. The Dolphin spirit boat trip was astonishing as well! Really recommend to visit

    Everything was within walking distance of the apartment.

    Everything was within walking distance of the apartment. The walk along the Banks of the River and across the bridges was exceptional particularly with the spring flowers adorning the flower beds and banks. Views to the Castle and the Cathedral made for beautiful photographs. If it's nightlife you're after plenty of pubs offering live entertainment of a high standard. Choice of eateries to suit every pocket and every cuisine. No need to hire a car, as the bus station offers buses to a wide range of tourist destinations, Culloden, Nairn, Aberdeen, Skye and Glasgow to name only a few. We will definitely return to this vibrant friendly city. Shopping is also good both for tourist gifts and also for the shopping Mall experience in the Eastgate Centre. Maybe next time weather permitting we may see the Northern Lights? This city will leave you feeling you've had a break and enjoyed the walking experience.

    Inverness is a great place to stay to take trips from, however not a great deal to do in Inverness itself. There is a lovely little botanical garden but took less than an hour to look round. The museum was dedicated to mostly the Jacobite period and taxidermy didn't spend too much time there, but they did have an exhibition on for bird photographer of the year which was amazing. Have a look round leaky's bookshop it full of old books you'd not find anywhere else. Old Victoria market also had some lovely shops. Plenty of places to eat and drink. Buses very confusing making self travel hard.

    property was clean, modern with everything we needed. owners were away but instructions to arrive were perfect and they sent their daughter to ensure everything was good. Owners knew we were arriving in a Sunday and offered to book us a table at a hotel within walking distance. was a blessing after a long driving day. Fridge came stocked with essentials to make coffee and breakfast day 1, truly a big surprise and really appreciated. Best accommodation so far in Scotland.

Fantastic, quiet location, at the same time close to amazing attractions, including castles, mountains, forest walks, Loch Ness, Inverness city centre, etc. The cabin is clean, well maintained and equiped, including all the basics like tea and coffee, some games, dvds and a big box of lego our children enjoyed playing with. Great, helpful and friendly hosts. Amazing place for a family holiday in Scotland! Highly recommended.

    Jamie and his familie were the best hosts we had so far on our Scotland tour. Even us arriving later in the day was no problem. We were welcomed super friendly (and Jamie even helped us take the bags to the room). The rooms are super comfy and we got everything we needed. The breakfast had plenty of fresh fruit, cereal and everything you might need. If we return sometime soon to Inverness we would love to stay at Doric House again.

But Glen Mhor takes that to the next level by letting your furry buddy accompany you to the diner and breakfest. Staff was also outstanding and friendly!
