Staff were amazing! Friendly and attentive. Rooms were spotless. A bit on the outskirts but better than the hotel we had downtown Inverness.

Liked: Cleanliness
It‘s a real pub-hotel, with some noises and simple but adequate rooms. But the owner and his team: they make the stay like you are in a 5 star hotel. They are supportive, communicative, have patience with customers who don‘t have fluent language skills and they are friendly at all times. It was a delight to stay at the Smithton.

It might not look like much from the outside, but our room was extremely nice and everything was very clean. The location is quiet and if you have a car, then it's very near to everywhere you might want to visit. It was the perfect location for us. Staff were friendly.

The Smithton Hotel was such a perfect place! It’s small, family owned and they stayed up late to let us in when our flight was delayed. The bed was SO comfortable! The breakfast was DELICIOUS! It was so quaint and close to the airport but convenient to get to town. The owner was so very nice. I would stay here again & again!

The Smithton Hotel is awesome! Close to the airport AND town AND in a cute neighborhood. The beds were super comfy, coffee and little cookies in the room, hot shower with good water pressure (you never realize how important that is until you DON’T have it), FANTASTIC breakfast, everyone working there was SO friendly and helpful and as we were leaving, the owner helped us with our bags! I LOVED our way too short time at the Smithton.
