Rocpool Reserve Review

In the heart of Inverness, this boutique hotel, created from a restored 19th-century residence, was voted Scotland's best small luxury hotel in 2009. Chic, sexy, and cool, it is ultraglamorous, the place where the staff, or so it is said, have extrasensory perception about what a guest needs. You might have expected this hotel to spring up in Glasgow or Edinburgh, not in relatively dowdy Inverness. Bedrooms are not ultraluxurious, but have a certain minimalist design, with stunning contemporary bathrooms. The most expensive units are the Decadent Room and the Extra Decadent Room. Management has installed what it calls "double voyeur showers" in all the bathrooms. Its on-site restaurant is among the top two in town, vying with Abstract.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
