Great Location. Close enough to Railway station to walk (20 mins) Stayed just one night during our tour of Scotland, but we will come back and stay again. The owners and staff are very friendly and helpful. Room overlooking the river, Clean, large and traditional. A lot of thought and hard work has gone into setting up and running the... more

Inverness was our second stop driving Scotland. We spent three nights at the Alexander and mainly because of the TripAdvisor reviews (rarely wrong). We booked a river view room (deluxe double) which turned out to be great (#8) at 80 BP/night. Some of the things I liked best is the huge towels and view and the frig; but the location... more

Just back from a trip to Inverness and The Alexander and already I can't wait to go back!! The outlook over the river Ness is amazing. The rooms are very clean with attention to detail (boys don't tend to use cotton buds but good to know they are there!!). The breakfast is not to be missed. The smoked salmon and... more

My partner and I stayed for 2 nights at The Alexander and were wowed by the quality of the place. We had wanted to stay on Ness Bank and were surprised that The Alexander is the only 4 star establishment but have to say that everything exceeded our expectations. Breakfasts were superb - fabulous scrambled eggs! Owners were attentive but... more

I have now stayed at the Alexander twice and have booked to stay again next month. It's the breakfasts that draw me back every time (the poached eggs are the best I've ever had), but this place is excellent value, beautifully kept and professionally run. Highly recommended! more

Travelling round Scotland you tend to be a bit more critical about things like standards, customer care, conditions etc especially in your own country. We found the Alexander through a friend and for accommodation in Inverness . . . I won’t be looking any further. However, for those of you that are not interested in me gushing ???!!! It’s a... more

I was travelling to Inverness to spend three days doing family history research at Inverness Library and Archives and chose the Alexander to stay in. It was only a short 10 minute walk from the Inverness station and easy to follow the Owners directions. I was in No 5 Bedroom a large sunny room at the back of the property.... more

We (my mom, a coworker and myself) stayed at The Alexander on Saturday, October 18th and had a wonderful stay! The location is absolutely perfect, right on the Ness River and very close to the city center (about a five minute walk at a leisurely pace). Our room and bathroom was very clean. Graham, the owner, was extremely friendly and... more

I had never visited Inverness before booking so I relied entirely on the TripAdvisor reviews (as usual, never having been disappointed). Having returned from a wonderful trip I cannot understand why anyone would want to stay anywhere else, particularly in guest houses and hotels in the city centre in the middle of built up areas. The Ness riverbank is less... more

We stayed in The Alexander for one night in April. It was a pleasant stay and we were lucky to have a room with a view onto the river. Arranging the booking via email went smoothly, as did checkin. The rooms are nice and the breakfast was excellent too. Overall definitely a B&B that can be recommnded more
