Muthu Newton Hotel (Near Inverness Airport)

Great views, photogenic Highland Cows in adjacent field. Friendly helpful staff. Would stay again

Very much enjoyed a short stay- lovely room and lovely staff!

Wonderful spacious setting and rooms. Could do with a little freshening up (stained carpets, battered paint work &c) but the rooms are clean and comfortable and ours were quiet. The staff could not have been morehelpful and accommodating.

Lovely hotel in a quiet location with loads of parking but you could walk to the town. we really enjoyed the stay, were a bit wary having read past reviews. This is a coach stop hotel and the main downside as they book the coach party in for dinner at 7pm so we could not get a dinner reservation until 8.45pm which was really to late after travelling all day but we were DBB.

Friendly staff, beautiful scenery and an amazing delicious breakfast!

It was EXACTLY the same room we had over 10yrs ago. This time there was the added cracked sink and loose toilet seat. Tired hotel needing some pove. And whats with the huge silver sofas and terrible metal figures? Totally out of place.

Beautiful location nice walk to the town and the hotel is a lovely traditional building.

.

Working in area stayed for three nights. Room tidy, bed super comfortable. Needs some talc in places but still good

Beautiful hotel and even more beautiful grounds. Restaurant left a lot to be desired, but the hotel itself was lovely.

The courtyard room we had was a bit dated, it was noisy from neighbouring rooms and a strange pump/motor kicked in every 30 mins day and night. The room didnt get serviced in our two days. This part of Nairn is a lovely location but the stay felt a bit basic for £135 a night

Enjoyed our stay with dinner and breakfast. Was good value for money on a deal we got. Liked walking around the grounds and lovely building.

I think I was expecting a lot more from the room just by looking at the outside of the building but it ended up being pretty average if not below average, room was clean but furniture was very old, TV was very small and beds were very average. Like I said I think I expected more by viewing the outside of the castle Hotel thankfully I didn't pay full price

Gorgeous stay with a feel for nature. Three highland coos right in the front yard, which is vast and gorgeous with a peak of the water in the distance. Walkable to the beach. Lovely afternoon tea. Comfortable rooms with lots of options. Best choice!!

Hotel and staff were very pleasant and helpful. The chef, I believe his name was Ollie?, was thoughtful and helpful with a special request. The only complaint I have is that we were given a room above the function room and the music was quite loud until midnight due to a wedding.

I recently stayed at Muthu Newton, and sadly, it was a very underwhelming experience. From the moment we arrived, the hotel felt neglected, with décor that was old, tired, and in desperate need of an update. The atmosphere was drab, and it didn't feel welcoming at all. The service was equally disappointing. The staff seemed completely disinterested in assisting us with even the simplest requests. Whether it was help with our luggage or inquiries about the area, their attitude was indifferent, making it feel like we were an inconvenience rather than guests. The dining options were extremely limited. The hotel had only a small restaurant with few available time slots for dinner. We were given only a single time slot, which didn’t suit our plans at all. It was frustrating to have such poor flexibility for something as basic as dinner. To make matters worse, there was a constant machine noise that persisted throughout the day and night, both nights of our stay. It was incredibly disruptive, and we struggled to get any rest with the constant humming. This completely ruined any chance of relaxation. The combination of poor service, outdated décor, limited dining options, and continuous noise made for an uncomfortable and unpleasant stay. I would highly recommend looking elsewhere for a more peaceful and accommodating experience. This hotel simply did not deliver on even the most basic expectations.

Like being the earl of the manor.

We booked courtside rooms, back when we booked this I do not believe it admitted to being outside the main building. So imagine our surprise when we were pointed to the pre 1600s probably servants quarters. They should have offered some way to get luggage to this building as our little suitcase wheels were not made for this kind of ground. My room was room 1. It is painted the color of antique puke. The curtains have so many threads hanging from the tops, the furniture is old and the laminate is peeling. The carpet is dingy. The room looked nothing like the prettied up picture. I will say that the bathroom was upgraded nicely. The bed was adequately comfortable. I was so disappointed as with very little money in upgrading the decor they could have made this experience wonderful. Just better paint a few period pieces of furniture and new drapery. But no, they left it a horrible feeling, Like a motel 6. I paid almost $200. American dollars per night for this. This is my first written review ever, that's how bad it was. Staff and location was nice it should have been great!!! I will not be staying in a Muthu hotel again.

Overall the property was great! They had some hairy cows outside the property (which are harder to find than you think). The property is very near to the ocean - not that it is swimmable but it was a nice beach walk.

Lovely hotel friendly staff
