Spa weekend

We booked this hotel for a nice spa break in the city of Inverness, from the outside. The building doesn’t look grand however, upon entering the facility it is in nice grand hotel. We were accommodated in the annex, this is situated on the other side of the car park and it is also where the spa is situated. We were given a disabled access suite which was large with ample wardrobes and storage. The room had a refrigerator And minibar/snacks available in your room which was a nice touch. The room had two bathrooms, one full size bathroom with bath and walk-in shower and another with a wet room with shower chair. That was a large area, for sitting with the small table. The king size bed was comfortable, and the room was 90% perfect. The only downside was that the bed wasn’t lowered. Therefore I struggled to transfer out of my chair as it was quite a jump onto the level of the bed. This may be on me however I have come across the accessible rooms in other hotels, have the lowered bed to make getting in and out easy.

Hotel suitable for wheelchair user

We stayed at the Kingsmills hotel for 2 nights for a special birthday. The room was well adapted for a wheelchair user, with a wet room and wide doorways. All areas were on the same level, including the lounge and private rooms booked for dinner. Food was good and staff were all friendly and helpful.

Weekend away

We were staying for 2 nights in a disabled garden room. This had a flat entrance and was a large room so plenty of space to manoeuvre in my wheelchair. Bathroom was very big with plenty of grab rails at the toilet. Walk in shower but could have done with a shower seat. Have to go along a path to access the main hotel. The restaurant is on two levels but staff always found us a table on lower level. We had dinner in the lounge bar which was reasonably priced. The hotel was very busy on the Sat night with a wedding in the function room and a large event in the lounge area but we couldn't hear anything in our room. We went to look at the spa area which was on the ground floor of the hotel. Lovely pool which was down a few steps but flat access to the gym. The hotel is centrally located in Inverness. It has disabled parking outside the main door. Parking near the garden rooms but this is gravel with no disabled spaces.
