The Black Friar was a great place to stay in Inverness. It was really convenient to the bus station. Close to everything that I wanted to see and walk to. The staff were helpful and accommodating. The room was perfect and had a great shower! Would stay again.

Jessica was the server that checked us in when we arrived and our server for the Sunday roast. She is just the best! On a busy night she was stuck with very low staff and was killing it! Very sweet and gave us great tips on how to get the right buses to areas outside of Inverness. The room was beautiful and such a great experience. I would stay there every time I visit Inverness and recommend it to everyone. Plus, the food is fantastic! I want the recipe to the sticky toffee pudding!

We had a wonderful stay. First night after 15 hours of travel. It was quiet, the bed was comfortable, and the curtains blocked out all sunlight. We slept for 12 hours!

Loved this spot! We spent a week in Scotland and stayed at 5 different hotels. This was by far my favorite. The room was super clean and the bathroom was nice and spacious. We had dinner in the pub and the food was delicious. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Because we missed our connecting flight we were going to miss the check in window. I called and was assured someone would wait for me until I arrived. Which they did. The bed was so comfortable that we got our much needed rest.

Rooms were located above the Black Friars pub. It was a unique experience. The pub had great live music and food. The room was great, very roomy the bed was very comfortable. Th area was surrounded by restaurants and shopping. Parks and the river were very close by. There was a public parking lot a couple blocks away.

We had a wonderful stay at the BlackFriar’s. Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was lovely with nice touches like a basket in the room with local snacks. The bathroom shower and tub were top notch. This was by far the nicest option in town for the price. Great location near everything and a short walk from the train as well as the bus station and supermarkets.

I do not understand the 10/10 reviews here. Very disappointed. Not a hotel. Rooms above a pub. No desk. Waitress gives you a key for your room in the pub. Pub shares same small entrance as stairwell to the rooms. No service overnight. No customer service if there’s an issue. No view. You can hear all your neighbors doing everything all night long, as well as all the noise and traffic from the street. Stuffy. Small desk fan. No convenient place to plug in. Can’t open windows because of the constant noise. Would not recommend if you’re looking to sleep or be comfortable.
