History

Dating back to 1895, the Glenmoriston Townhouse Hotel began life as an elegant family residence in a prestigious location on the banks of the River Ness. Over the years, it has evolved into one of Inverness’s much-loved hospitality destinations, with the Larsen family acquiring the business in 2003 and continuing to lead it today. From the launch of its fine dining restaurants to the success of the renowned Contrast Brasserie, thriving Piano Bar and impressive whisky collection, the hotel has continually grown while retaining its unique character and charm.
