One of the Highland capital's oldest private hotels, the Corriegarth was constructed around 1840. It has had a varied life including being a primary school, doctors surgery as well as once being used by the RAF and Royal Navy during WW2 as an Officers Club! Situated in the Crown area of Inverness 13 minutes walk from the city centre, it has nine individually-styled en-suite bedrooms; recently been refurbished to a high standard, the hotel is a very comfortable, friendly place. Serves a wide range of local, Scottish and occasional English beers. [Update 31 May 2024: report of three hand pumps working, with two Orkney and one Cromarty beers on.]
