Perfect for our logistical circumstances. The hotel is spotlessly clean prepared beyond our expectations. Liam met us on arrival and arranged everything we required, including dining room and bar support. The waiting staff were attentive and knowledgable on the menu and directed us to ensure we had the best to suit our preferences. Parking was better than anyone could hope for and the time from leaving our car to entering our room could easily be measured in seconds and not minutes. The overall ambience of the hotel was way above any expectations and we will certainly return and recommend it to everyone in our sphere of influence. Breakfast was again superb. The owner, Gareth, took our order and ensured we had everything we asked for and more besides. This hotel is one of those secret locations you seek out and rarely find. 10/10.

I honestly cannot think of a negative at all.

The hotel is easy to find, staff were very friendly, room was really good size and clean and had a welcoming feel. Free onsite parking. Little touches in the room like local bottled water and Scottish biscuits. I loved how welcome they made my little dog. Breakfast was included, but I didn't have it as I was out before it was served and back after it was finished. But it was a fantastic price even without the food. There was lots of lovely places within walking distance to visit, but I used it as a bit of a base to go further a field. I would definitely book it again. Thank you for having us.

My only complaint would be the key ring on the room key! It was huge, I mean, you can't lose it, so I get why they have used it, but from a practical point where to put it? It luckily just fit in my pocket and no more. Nothing else what so ever was wrong with my stay, and I feel silly for mentioning the keyring, but if no one says you'll never know.

We were a bit stuck trying to find accommodation in Inverness that wasn't astronomically priced due to an event. Found Cairn Lodge that didn't require us to have a mortgage for an overnight stay and it was a good find. Really friendly staff and lovely food. We had some dinner and the breakfast and it was definitely all freshly cooked and very good indeed. We had a budget twin room and it was clean, warm, comfy beds and certainly worth it for what we paid. Tea, coffee, water, caramel logs and TV. We had a separate private bathroom for the room, just across the hall, and I was delighted to discover some lovely fluffy bathrobes in the wardrobes for the hop across the hall which I thought was a great touch. Great value, good food lovely area and very friendly.

Best of the best of your traditional down-to-earth no frills hospitality. Love the wee room, exceptional location, super friendly staff, excellent local food at the bar and generous delicious breakfast on a quiet morning. The bed is comfy and the room has everything one might need for a stay. This was my second stay and I will be back again. Highly recommend.

The property is not new, so there are some things that come with age of the building, like squeaky floors and door, some mouldy bits in the bathroom, but this is all so minor and even adds to the charm of the place.

This traditional hotel in Carrbridge is a little difficult to describe. While we enjoyed our stay and we were comfortable here, there were some things we didn't like. The food was really good and breakfast service was good. We had dinner in the bar next to the crackling fireplace one night. Beds were comfortable and clean, with lovely wool covers.

Overall the place feels worn and could use a refresh. The bathroom was fine but the furniture, flooring, and common areas felt old and tired. There were little things like a broken doorknob and gouges in the walls that made it feel less nice. There's a pervasive smell of wood smoke and food throughout. Our clothes, coats, and even pajamas smelled like a camp cabin after two nights here. The place is lower priced than most in the area. It's not bad but I don't think we'd stay there again.

The staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious with a good selection. The meals were very tasty if a bit on the pricey side. The hotel is nicely situated with a few shops close by and within walking distance to the train station. Surrounded by woods and walking paths.

The bathroom could have been cleaner, old cobwebs at the window and the shower was a bit grubby around the sealant. The shower door didn't stay closed properly and the fan didn't work.

Booked Cairn at last minute as I had to drop off urgently required spare parts on Saturday to north of Inverness and was not able to drive all the way back south . Welcome was prompt and very friendly . I could not have been made more welcome . I requested a quiet room , and my request was granted . I said I would be leaving before the 07.00 breakfast and I was offered breakfast to be left out for me or would I like a packed lunch instead . Never been offered such good service anywhere in any country.

The hotel is a cute little pub accommodation. The room while being basic was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The pub was great. It was busy with friendly helpful staff. The food was excellent and reasonably priced. The breakfast was cooked to order and very good.

The bathroom needed an update but was clean and roomy. It was a little noisy at night from pub patrons outside but that's to be expected when you book this type of accommodation and it didn't prevent us sleeping.

The staff, location, rooms and breakfast at Cairn Hotel are fantastic. That's why I keep coming back when I need to work in Inverness. Room was huge with sofa and giant TV. Clean comfy bed, great sleep and always look forward to the breakfast.Go.

The bar can be really busy - especially over the holidays so you might need to wait a bit to get checked in - but goes to show how good the food and drink is - the place was jumping this time.

Excellent breakfast, very helpful and friendly staff, warm greeting on arrival, clean room and private bathroom (which was just along the corridor). The location is stunning & I'd definitely stay here again. I had a quick pint at the hotel next door before heading off to work - very nice too!

The rooms are no-frills and fairly basic - it's odd not having an en-suite room, but the design/age of the building would prevent modernisation!
