New Drumossie

We honestly cannot recommend the Macdonald Drumossie Hotel in Inverness highly enough. From start to finish, our wedding experience was absolutely incredible, and so much of that was down to the amazing staff who went above and beyond to make our day so special. The venue itself is beautiful and provided the perfect setting for our wedding. The atmosphere throughout the day and evening was incredible, warm, welcoming and full of happiness. Every little detail came together perfectly, creating such a memorable experience for us and all of our guests. A special mention absolutely has to go to Marta, the wedding organiser. Marta is genuinely a wonderful person and was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. Nothing ever seemed like too much trouble, and she made us feel completely looked after. Even after coming back from her holiday, she instantly switched straight back into work mode and was there making sure everything was running smoothly. Her dedication, professionalism and genuinely lovely nature made such a difference to our wedding day, and we are incredibly grateful to her. We also have to mention the fantastic bar staff, Finlay and Connor. For two people so young, their professionalism was genuinely outstanding. They were friendly, approachable, incredibly easy to chat to and fantastic company for all of our guests. They brought such a great energy to the evening and made everyone feel welcome. They are a real credit to the hotel, and we sincerely hope they have an amazing time and every success in whatever their next endeavours may be. Overall, the staff at the Macdonald Drumossie Hotel were simply outstanding, beyond helpful, professional, friendly and genuinely invested in making our wedding day special. We couldn't have asked for a better team or a more beautiful venue. Thank you to everyone at the Macdonald Drumossie Hotel for helping make our wedding so unforgettable. We will always look back on our day with the happiest of memories.

My wife and I stayed one night at the Drumossie Hotel in Inverness. It was a great experience. The food was excellent and the rooms clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly to us ‘Yanks' which we really appreciated. We particularly noticed the manager and senior staff doing thoughtful things to accommodate us. We arrived a little late for a scheduled dinner. They booked us in quickly and transported our bags for us so that we could go directly to the dinner. It was a nice gesture that left a great impression. This was our second to last night in Scotland. We did not want to leave. Luke and Donna P. - New Hampshire, USA

This was yet another Inverness hotel that doesn't provide mini-fridges in at least some of their rooms. As I have to keep my medication refrigerated & to hand at night, this meant we had to bring our travel-fridge with us on the 7.5hr drive to Inverness. There are fridge facilities available via reception, but that's no good to me if I need instant medication in the middle of the night. It was also another Inverness hotel that turns the room heating off as soon as spring finishes. Happily, we discovered the concealed switch to turn on our room radiator & the bathroom towel rail, otherwise I would have frozen. But the corridors & reception rooms were noticeably chilly every time we stepped outside our room. And it was yet another Inverness hotel that caters for coaches of tourist groups on a daily basis. Obviously I can't begrudge them any attempt to earn more money during the current assaults on the beleaguered hospitality trade by the Treasury, but when we came down to breakfast at 8am to discover a coachload of Chinese tourists had denuded the kitchen of its entire stock of brown bread, we were surprised, to say the least. No disposable slippers or bottled water in the family room we had to book at short notice, but both were supplied on request by the very helpful recepionists. The good points are that our bed was comfortable, the restaurant meals tasty & beatufully presented & all the staff were friendly, professional & helpful. Also, being slightly south of Inverness, it cut down our hideously long journey time by about 20 minutes.
