WELCOME TO THE NORTH KESSOCK HOTEL

Waterfront hotel accommodation near the Inverness city centre! 

Celebrate with us!

Our boutique hotel has been in the Maclachlan family for over forty years. We have it all here – eight recently refurbished  en-suite bedrooms, a restaurant that serves excellent, quality food and breathtaking views over to Inverness and the surrounding Black Isle.


We recently won The Prestige Scotland Best 3* Scottish Hotel Award, something we worked hard to accomplish. We are committed to upholding and exceeding that standard daily.


In addition to high-quality restaurant dining, serving some of the best food in the area, North Kessock Hotel also has individually styled en-suite accommodations. There are also extensive gardens, terraces and patio areas.
