Rocpool Reserve is a boutique hotel in Inverness. A modern townhouse-style affair that's ten minutes' walk from the city centre, the hotel is attractive and intimate with fantastic levels of service. Inverness itself is a lively city with plenty of cultural attractions: if you decide to leave the four walls of Rocpool Reserve, you could choose to explore Inverness Castle, a few minutes' walk away.

Facilities here are small in scale, but all done just right. For a superb meal, Chez Roux restaurant serves award-winning French country-style grub using local produce. If you fancy starting your evening out in style, the cocktails at r Bar draw in plenty of locals, and the modern decor is suitably dramatic.

Each of Rocpool Reserve's 11 rooms and suites is smart, clean-lined and contemporary: choose from Hip, Chic, Decadent and Extra-Decadent categories. All come complete with free Wi-Fi, 30" flat-screen TVs, DVD players and Tassimo coffee makers. Bathrooms have Molton Brown products. Check in to Extra-Decadent rooms five or ten for a hot tub, or get a Decadent room to add music to mood with an iPod dock.
