Dining at Rocpool Reserve Hotel

The Rocpool Reserve Hotel exudes an atmosphere of quiet, modern elegance.

At the end of one corridor though, behind an intriguing, unmarked door, you will find a completely different world, the world of the restaurant kitchen.

The buzz is memorable every night - out of the chaos comes something very special.     

The hotel's Chez Roux restaurant is run by Albert Roux and offers Scottish cuisine with a French twist. The split level 'R Bar' has established itself as one of the city's most sophisticated and chic cocktail bars.

"The dishes live up to the promises that the decor suggests - well balanced and smartly presented. The starter was a delicate dish of slinky pasta pillows stuffed with crab and salmon.”

"Rocpool Reserve may sit above the banks of the River Ness, but it's more suited to the Riviera. For Inverness it is unfeasibly glamorous. I chose the hand-dived scallops with black pudding, pancetta, pea and mint dressing. It was simple and impressive the flavours and textures sparking off one another"

Reservations are recommended.
