My wife and I found the food and service outstanding at Culloden House. The setting and historical ambience were magnificent. The excellent Scottish staff went out of their way to help with any request. There many many nice touches. We would definitely like to return.

My husband and me were in our honeymoon. We were travelling by car around Scotland and chose this hotel for staying one night near Inverness. When you arrive, you feel like you are in the 19th Century. The big garden is breathtaking and you have to surround it to get to the building.
The staff was really friendly and polite and helped us a lot. Although we couldn't stay at a four-posted room (our travel agency didn't asked for it, though we had paid for it) and our room only had views to the parking, it was big, clean, nice and comfortable, full of details and decorated with typical scottish clothes.
The rest of the hotel is like a small palace. The sitting room is really nice and invites you to have a cup of tea and a long conversation.
We had dinner there and we must say that everything was perfect: the meals, the wine, the staff... The only problem was that we felt we didn't fit in, because everybody was dressing very smart clothes and in our suitcases there were only jeans, pullovers and khakis. In spite of that, we felt like we were in a James Ivory film.

Rooms were nicely presented although v.hot (managed to choose hotest day of year so far to stay) Managed to arrive late to hotel and missed dinner. We had rang beforehand to say we would be late (arriving at 10pm) however the bar/room service menu was really poor. What was described as homemade soup had come straight out of a packet and took forever to arrive. Breakfast was similar. We were looking forward to a hearty breakfast but where were all the staff???? They had totally vanished, a couple even appeared and proceeded to completely ignore us until we said something. Do not know what it was like for dinner - the place has 2 rossettes so cant be bad, but stayed at many other hotels with 2 rossettes and food and service were not up to scratch. This hotel has a reputation for the best in inverness and I was expecting as much....disappointed and expect more for a room costing 200gbp a night

I fail to understand hotel rating scheme's and when I first contacted this hotel for availability I was somewhat suprised that it was a 4 star hotel charging over two hundred pounds a night, luckily for me I decided to book Culloden House as it turned out to be better than the five star hotels I have stayed in whilst visiting London.

Elegant, charming, warm and everything you have dreamt of.

Dinners where our highlight and the kitchen should be congratulated on the first class cuisine they turn out.

I would recommend this property to anyone and everyone, the staff are down to earth yet professional.
