Hotel Description

hotel map
See below for directions
A city centre location, yet on the quiet side of the river, with splendid views of Inverness Castle Completely refurbished to four star standards. The ideal base for your visit to the Highlands!

With seventy six fully refitted bedrooms; a suite of dedicated, air conditioned meeting and banqueting rooms; a completely new Carvery Restaurant and the beautifully finished John Macnabs Bar & Bistro, the new Columba features four star standards of service and equipment.
 
There will be movies, music and radio on demand in every bedroom. High speed internet connections are available throughout the hotel on either cabled or wireless access.
 
The Columba nestles on the banks of the River Ness, close to the city centre yet still on the quiet side of the river. There are views from the front of the hotel looking over the Ness and up to Inverness Castle. In the summer you can look out over the beautiful floral decoration which surrounds the Castle itself; in the winter the trees which line Ness Walk are decked with fairy lights which shimmer on the water as the Ness flows towards the Moray Firth.
 
Of course, with an outlook like this it makes sense to take advantage of it! The conference suite in the Columba Hotel can be found on the first floor. As you would expect from a building dating back to 1881, the suites feature ornate high ceilings and large bay windows offering plenty of natural light. To maintain the fresh, airy atmosphere all the rooms are fully air conditioned. The hotel itself has been completely refurbished with décor that combines traditional comfort with contemporary style.
 
At street level you'll find John Macnabs Bistro & Bar - featuring a 'hunting lodge' feel, menus at John Macnabs offer dishes of fresh local produce prepared to a very high standard. Whilst at the bar you can select from a range of over one hundred malt whiskies or ales from the Black Isle Brewery.
