The Spotlight on Craigmonie Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality

Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort in Central Inverness

Modern amenities meet classic Scottish hospitality at the Craigmonie Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality. Set in a charming 1880s building, this hotel offers a cozy, welcoming vibe just a short walk from the heart of Inverness. With free Wi-Fi, an indoor pool, and a sauna, it's the perfect base for music lovers looking to combine culture, comfort, and convenience during their stay.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is key, and Craigmonie Hotel delivers—situated just over half a mile from the city center, you’re within a 10-15 minute stroll of Inverness’s main music venues and nightlife. After a late show, the quiet residential setting offers a peaceful place to wind down. Late check-in from 3:00 PM means no stress if you're arriving close to showtime, and check-out at 11:00 AM gives you time to sleep in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking to explore the city by day and catch a gig by night - Solo travelers chasing a dream concert in the Highlands - Couples planning a romantic music-filled weekend - Fans who want a quieter, relaxing space to recover post-concert - Budget-conscious travelers who still want quality amenities

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s Conservatory Restaurant offers casual yet high-quality dining with a seasonal menu and an excellent wine selection. Fuel up with a hearty Scottish breakfast served daily—perfect after a night out. While there’s no 24/7 room service, you’re just a short walk from several pubs and eateries if hunger strikes late.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is more about calm than clubs, its close proximity to Inverness city center means you’re never far from live music bars, cozy pubs, and vibrant lounges. It's easy to walk or grab a cab to and from the city's best nightlife spots.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and the hotel’s quiet yet central location. Many say it’s a great value for money, particularly for those attending events in town. The leisure facilities, including the pool and sauna, are often called a nice bonus for unwinding.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that the decor is a little dated in parts, but most agree it adds to the hotel’s charm. Others note that the parking is limited, so plan ahead if you're driving in.

The Bottom Line

With its ideal location, historic charm, and relaxing vibe, Craigmonie Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality is a solid pick for concert-goers looking for comfort and convenience in the Highlands.

Liked: Nothing

Disappointed

Liked: The staff were lovely. Central location close to where I was working the following day
Disliked: Very dated decor. Didn’t feel very secure as windows didn’t seem to lock firmly. I didn’t think it was appropriate to be charged extra for parking when I paid £234 for room only for one night. I thought it was overpriced
