The Spotlight on Sealladh Sona

Canal-side Comfort Close to Inverness Concert Action

Modern and welcoming, Sealladh Sona is a charming guesthouse in Inverness offering peaceful, en-suite rooms overlooking the scenic Caledonian Canal and the city skyline. Just a short walk or ride from the city’s popular concert venues and nightlife spots, it's a relaxing retreat after a high-energy night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

Tucked only 33 feet from the Caledonian Canal and less than a mile from the city center, Sealladh Sona is within easy reach of Inverness’s top music venues. The quiet, residential setting offers a peaceful contrast to the post-show buzz, perfect for winding down. While check-in starts at 15:30, the friendly hosts are known to accommodate late arrivals when possible, ideal for travelers catching evening performances. Free WiFi and a shared lounge area also make it easy to plan your next gig.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking for quiet digs close to town
- Solo travelers catching once-in-a-lifetime shows
- Couples after a relaxing, scenic weekend
- Fans who want to relax and recharge after a concert
- Budget-conscious music lovers wanting clean, comfortable value

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, Sealladh Sona is close to Inverness’s city center, making it easy to grab a bite before or after the show. Several late-night eateries are a short walk or cab ride away, and the shared lounge offers a cozy place to enjoy takeout. Breakfast options nearby are plentiful for slow, post-gig mornings.

Nightlife Options

The hotel is just a short distance from a variety of lively pubs and bars in Inverness, many of which feature live music and local brews. Whether you’re looking for a quiet dram or a high-energy post-concert hangout, you’ll find it close by. While Sealladh Sona doesn’t have a bar of its own, its peaceful setting is ideal for those who prefer to wind down in comfort.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the spotless rooms, friendly hosts, and the beautiful canal views. Many mention the hotel as a peaceful place to retreat after a busy day, with fast WiFi, cozy beds, and a warm, homely atmosphere. The convenient location also gets frequent mentions—close enough to the action, yet just far enough away for a restful night’s sleep.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms don’t feature air conditioning, which might be noticeable during rare warm evenings. Also, with a check-out time of 10:00, late risers may want to plan ahead if they’re recovering from a big night.

The Bottom Line

Sealladh Sona is a peaceful, well-located stay for concert-goers who want a comfortable base near Inverness’s music scene without sacrificing rest and relaxation.

A beautiful property with amazing...

Liked: A true bed and breakfast. Immaculately presented. The most beautiful breakfasts. Perfect hosts….with lots of great travel tips. Lovely location by the canal.
Disliked: Just a minor thing but the window blind still lets in lots of light making it difficult to sleep when there is street light and so much light in summer.

Excellent short break

Liked: Excellent location, a 20 minute walk from the centre, it was relaxing, peaceful and exactly what I wanted. Very picturesque on the Caledonian canal, lots of walks in the area The house to a high standard, and was very clean, comfy room, with good quality products and all amenities required. Bed was very comfy, and all I could hear was birds singing in the morning as sunset rose on the waters - incredible view. Owners were perfect hosts, very friendly, informative and down to earth. helping whenever was possible. Breakfast was excellent, a good choice and the cooked English exceeded my expectations and set me up for the day, I well enjoyed - compliments to the chef. Almost everything was within walking distance from the centre, cafes, coffee shops, restaurants, shops, buses and train station, although there were buses we walked as it was good weather and an enjoyable walk. Would highly recommend for a relaxing, peaceful break, and I would definitely book again if in that area. Thank you Jim and Christina.
Disliked: Nothing, all was perfect - I think the warm sunny weather also made a difference, so the only reason I did not give a 10, though nothing to do with the property.

Convenient for a one night...

Liked: A very nice room on the ground floor, in a quiet location overlooking the canal. Spacious shower room.Clean and comfortable. Lovely hosts with lots of local knowledge and excellent breakfast
Disliked: Parking was available opposite the property. However the space was limited and it was necessary to reverse along a private road when leaving the property. A large vehicle could find this a challenge. Guest should be informed that alternative parking was available, prior to arrival at the property.

Sealladh Sona was our FAVORITE...

Liked: Jim and Christina were wonderful hosts! They were happy to suggest things to do and places to go and even lend us a road atlas. The delicious breakfast was cooked to order and made with fresh local ingredients. Our room was large and comfortable with a nice view of the canal. The location was perfect! We were able to walk into downtown Inverness and to the Ness Islands Park with ease.
