Ardconnel House

I stayed for one night after finishing the Great Glen Way. I really enjoyed my stay with Elaine. The bed was very comfortable. Everything was clean and the towels were very soft!! I’d highly recommend and would stay here again when next in the area. This property is close to the town centre so plenty of eateries. Breakfast was really nice !

Beautiful B&B with a lovely and welcoming host. Very good location, close to centre Inverness, while in a quiet residential area. We loved the intimate feeling of the house and the energetic and positive vibe of our host, who was verty fiendky and helpul in suggesting places to go. Very good breakfast as well. A very enjoyable stay.

I can't say enough good things about my stay @ Ardconnel House - it was positively luxurious, after some of the places I'd stayed in before my arrival. The owner, Elaine, was born to run a B&B - she greeted me at the door warmly and showed me up to my room immediately. Extra pillows, a bathrobe and slippers, and my own large bathroom, because my room wasn't en suite. Breakfasts were excellent in the formal front room - lots of choices. All in all, excellent value - and the price was incredibly reasonable, compared to what I'd paid at other establishments before arriving. 5 stars all the way!

Amazing stay! Elaine was incredibly nice and easy to work with. She made my stay in Scotland so much better. The room was cute and clean. Breakfast was perfect.

My husband and I stayed for one night. Friendly and welcoming staff. Informative and perfect location just 5 min away from the main streets. Quiet street and parking by the end. Nice breakfast and nice prices. And the best part was that it was cleaned and nice beds too.

Excellent location. Walking distance to downtown restaurants and shops. The room was quiet and comfortable. Nothing fancy, but it did the trick. My husband and I had to sleep in twin beds because all the double bedrooms were occupied. But the little beds were comfy. Breakfast is pretty basic, but very convenient. If you are traveling by car, please note that the B&B does not have its own parking. BUT if you ask for a parking pass, you can park your car safely on the street out front. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to others. Thanks!

The man who met me at check-in was very friendly and helpful, carrying my bag upstairs and recommending nearby restaurants. The B&B itself feels very much like a budget accommodation (very thin sheets on the bed, not one but two signs in the tiny bathroom recommending that guests reuse their towels, breakfast only served for one hour in the morning, slow wifi that cut out completely in the evening and didn't come back on before I left, TV that stopped working when the wifi cut out, poor soundproofing, etc.). I was most disappointed with the cleanliness though. There were hairs stuck to the sheets in both of the beds in my room, and the stopper on the bottle of water was dirty. The room had a strong smell of air freshener covering smoke, though I believe the rooms are supposed to be non-smoking. I did not have a chance to sample the breakfast as I had to leave early in the morning for a flight, but it seemed like only a cold breakfast was included in the room rate and you could pay more for a hot breakfast.

The Ardconnel House BnB was very cute, clean and welcoming hostess! The breakfast was very good! The location was perfect as walking distance to town centre with all the shopping and restaurants. Very nice stay and would highly recommend!

I enjoyed my stay here. The owner, Graham, is super nice and informative. The house is located very close to the town center with plenty of shops, cafes, and restaurants. The room itself was not that big, but it was spacious enough. We were in the top floor, so there was a neat little garret window that you could kind of sit in and read a book or just enjoy the view. The bathroom was surprisingly large with plenty of room to place all your toiletries a the shower was watertight and had more than sufficient water pressure and temperature range (which were both adjustable). Breakfast was prompt with Graham cooking and serving the the dining room downstairs, and the food was quite nice. I even got to try haggis while I was here with the full Scottish breakfast that was served.

I recently stayed here on Valentines Day and had an amazing time. The owners John and Liz are a pleasure to deal with and give great advice on what to see and do in the area. The B&B is very comfortable and clean with a very home like feel to it. The rooms may feel a little small by American standards but I was very happy with them. Breakfast is included in the price and it is amazing. There is a wide variety of homemade dishes available. Along with fresh fruits and breads. Defiantly recommend staying here for a pleasant time.

A very cozy , sweet B&B in the crown neighborhood of Inverness just a few (steep) steps from the city centre. John & Elizabeth run it and are simply wonderful hosts.Unfortunately I've just heard they may be retiring and moving out of the area soon

I was in Inverness for two nights on my way from landing in Manchester to Durness on the north coast of Scotland, to acclimatize myself to the time change and see more of an area I had only briefly visited once before. I'm thankful that I found Ardconnel House (thanks, TripAdvisor!). It was a most pleasant visit, and John and Elizabeth are wonderful hosts. The building is charming, very easy to find from the train station, and they did a nice job of setting it up as a B&B. The dining area is spacious and comfortable, and as a vegetarian I had plenty of good choices from the sidebar and menu of cooked options. The lounge on the second floor is a nice bonus, with lots of Scotland books and magazines available, a large screen TV, and comfy chairs. Although my single room was quite small, it was comfortable and lacked nothing. I certainly wasn't cramped in any way, although getting to the closet was slightly awkward. (But maybe I just packed too much stuff for this trip!) I can't say enough good about John and Elizabeth. Very gracious and extremely helpful, including some perfect restaurant suggestions from my two dinners while there. Even John's suggestions of a route for a nice long run one day was perfect, and I thoroughly enjoyed running along the Ness River and canal. (If only he could have done something about the stiff headwind on the return!) I have only two VERY minor issues. One was that the shower in my single room was a bit small, although since it is the corner type with doors that close in the corner it wasn't too bad, and overall the ensuite bath was adequately spacious. The other is that to get to the downtown area requires navigating several flights of stairs coming and going (or a long walk 'round on roads). Like I said, these are minor things at worst, but might be worth considering for some people. Overall, I'm really happy to have chosen Ardconnel, and would stay there again for sure.

Stayed here a few months ago and it was lovely! I only chose this B&B because the Guardian featured it so i figured it must be good! It was lovely and its rated a 4* B&B in fact which is deserved because the staff are lovely, the hotel itself its cute and quaint but quite small, only six bedrooms. The location is useful very close to the shopping centre, the railway and the bus station. I visited Loch Ness and it was close by from the hotel so made sightseeing easier. Another perk- the whole B&B is non smoking. I hate the stink on bedding in smoking rooms in hotels so i preferred this. Great place to stay
