About

Redcliffe Hotel

Redcliffe Hotel sits on Gordon Terrace in the Crown area of Inverness, a 6-minute walk from the Inverness Museum and Art Gallery. The 3-star property has 25 rooms, many with mountain views, and a restaurant that guests repeatedly praise — especially the wood-fired pizza and the full veggie Scottish breakfast.

The hotel keeps things straightforward: free parking, Wi-Fi, and a bar with a terrace. Rooms include tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs, and heating. A one-bedroom apartment is available for those wanting more space, and the common areas are described as tastefully decorated and welcoming.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Exceptional dining — Guests consistently rate the food highly, from the full veggie Scottish breakfast to wood-fired pizzas in the restaurant.
  • Central location — A 6-minute walk to Inverness Museum and Art Gallery, and close to the castle, river, and town centre.
  • Comfortable, well-equipped rooms — Rooms come with tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs, and some offer castle or river views.
  • Friendly, helpful staff — Multiple guests highlight the staff's warmth and willingness to go out of their way.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Guest rating is moderate — With an overall rating of 8.2, some guests found aspects less than perfect, particularly around service consistency.
  • No pets allowed — Pets are not permitted, which may be a drawback for travellers with animals.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:00, so arriving outside those hours requires planning.
  • Not the cheapest option — At £322 per night, this is a mid-range price for the area, though guests feel it's justified by the location and dining.
