About Ness Walk

Ness Walk stands directly on the bank of the River Ness, a short stroll from the cathedral and across the water from the castle, in a building that combines a restored Victorian villa with a contemporary extension. It positions itself as the city's flagship luxury address, with rooms looking out over the water and the wooded Ness Islands beyond.

The hotel's restaurant, Torrish, has earned a strong local reputation for modern Scottish cooking built on Highland produce, and there is a small spa and treatment area for guests wanting to unwind after a day on the road. Public rooms make good use of the riverside setting, with large windows and a terrace for warmer evenings.

Its location is genuinely walkable into the heart of Inverness while still feeling separate from the bustle of Church Street, making it a popular choice for special occasions, honeymoons and anyone wanting a quieter, higher-end stay within easy reach of the castle and shops.
