Do NOT accept a room facing union street ie main entrance. There are nightclubs and fast food places. The noise until 0300 is unbelievable. Especially friday and saturday. Go riverside ONLY

The room (4-bunk female dorm) was very spacious so plenty of room for sorting through my bags. Bunk was large and included a USB plug and power outlet there. Room had large attached shower and toilet rooms.
LLi-SanWhile the place is a little rundown, it was relatively clean and we had the extension to ourselves. Thus space was not an issue. Bathroom was nicely heated. Quiet neighbourhood yet just a short walk to eating places.
The Beaufort Hotel was very disappointing. First of all, all staff had only been there under 2 weeks. New management. We booked 2 rooms....costing us about 600 pounds or $1000 CA. Upon check in, one room had a broken toilet that wouldn't flush. We were told to go enjoy our day in Inverness and it would be fixed when we returned. Upon returning to the hotel at 9pm, we could hear the toilet running as soon as we walked in. It was still broken. We went to the front desk. The man working said he had to call the manager to tell us how to resolve this. After an hour wait, we were told we would have to switch to a less expensive room with fewer beds (one being a pull out sofa bed with protruding springs). As the man on the desk was ”new”, a man in the lobby (who claimed to have worked there under the former management) has to make the room up for us. Yes...he was in street clothes....carrying a guitar....and was not a hotel employee. This room did not have the beds made when he opened the door....it honestly looked like a room they had deemed unfit and only use in case of emergency. The best were hastily (and poorly) made up. The window did now open. It was cramped and run down. The man on the front desk told us to ask in the morning about a free breakfast. Next morning, no one knew about a free breakfast. We didn't really have time to eat there anyway. I still expected to be refunded the difference between the room I booked and the room I stayed in. The manager (also new) says he cannot do any refunds. We should have received a free breakfast (no one knew about this so wouldn't honour it), and he claims he is unable to do any kind of refund. However...he says will offer us a good deal if we want to stay there again. This was a once -in-a-lifetime vacation for us. We clearly won't be back. Rooms are run down. Building is hot. All staff are new. Communication is poor. Manager/owner is incompetent and inflexible. Hotel needs major overhaul. Weird smell. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

The breakfast had a good range of choices and was delicious. The staff were polite and friendly and were very happy to fuss over my small child!
Think hitch hikers hostel and you will get an idea of what this place is like. We had a room in the portacabin, which shook as people went pass in corridor. Sound proofing poor. Twin which was barely adequate in size. Receptionist friendly and helpful but not worth the price. Especially, room only. There is a real lack of local amenities after 4pm.
