Leonardo Hotel Inverness

Relaxed Comfort Just Outside the City Buzz

Modern and welcoming, the Leonardo Hotel Inverness offers a calm retreat just 20 minutes on foot from Inverness Railway Station and a quick 15-minute drive from Inverness Airport. With easy access to the city’s music venues, plus perks like free parking, a full leisure center, and a cozy bar, this hotel blends convenience with comfort for concert-goers who like to unwind in style.

Why Concert-goers love it

Whether you're catching a gig in the city center or heading to a festival near Loch Ness, this hotel is well-placed to get you there hassle-free. The free parking is a big plus for road-trippers, and with Inverness Station just 1 mile away, late-night train options are within reach. After the show, relax in the steam room or hot tub, or grab a nightcap at the bar. The hotel’s 12:00 check-out time means you can sleep in and recover without feeling rushed.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking for a base with spa perks and shared amenities
• Solo travelers catching that once-in-a-lifetime tour
• Couples turning a concert into a full weekend escape
• Fans who prefer a quieter space to recharge post-show
• Budget-conscious music lovers who appreciate value and free parking

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s contemporary restaurant serves a globally inspired dinner menu, and the lounge bar offers cocktails, coffee, and light bites—ideal for a quick pre-show snack or a relaxed post-gig unwind. While there's no 24/7 room service, the bar stays open late enough to suit most night owls. Breakfast is also available, which is perfect if you're recovering from a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, it’s close to Inverness’s pubs and venues for those looking to keep the night going. The on-site bar is a low-key spot to debrief with friends over a drink. For more action, local nightlife is just a short cab ride or brisk walk away.

What People Say

Guests love the friendly staff, clean rooms, and the unexpected bonus of the spa and pool facilities. Many mention the hotel’s handy location for both city events and Highland adventures. The Dream beds are frequently praised for a great night’s sleep after loud concerts.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers found the decor a little dated in places, and while the walk to town is doable, it’s not ideal for those wanting to be right in the center of action. The restaurant gets busy pre-show, so booking ahead is a smart move.

The Bottom Line

Leonardo Hotel Inverness is a solid, comfy choice for concert-goers who want spa perks, easy access to venues, and a quiet place to crash after the encore.
