Beautiful 200 year old hotel with lots of character. We were upgraded to a suite which was amazing. Enjoyed sitting in our bay window overlooking the river and people walking the streets. Excellent location. Just across the bridge to the town centre. Street parking nearby which was free after 5:00 until 10:15 the next day. Good breakfast. Staff at reception and breakfast were very personableu. Cleaning staff were great too.

The hotel is well located in the centre of Inverness. However, it is tired and needs a quite a bit of TLC. It was not value for money given the above.

After traveling for nearly 24 hours, coming to the Columba was the perfect place to lay our head. You can't beat the location. An easy walk to Fig and Thistle, The Leakey Bookshop,historical cemetery, and The Victorian Market. If you get a chance there's a spot in there that has chana masala. Chef's kiss! The river walk was beautiful.

Terrible terrible hotel to stay. Staff is rude not ready to help. There were cockroach inside bathroom and bugs in bedroom. After getting back from all day tour my room was undone and when asking to do the room Staff was so rude and unattended, after calling 7-8 times no one picked up call, I had to personally walk to reception to speak to the staff.
