Small break to see family.
Hotel was okay. In need of fefurbishment but was clean and had everything we required. Food in the Bistro was very nice, service was okay but slow migth have been due to wedding on in hotel. Room was okay again getting a bit tired and in need of a refresh. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy with everything needed. One main complaint was a lot of mould on bathroom ceiling, due to inactive fan.
Breakfast each morning was good and pleantyful with attentive service.

Lovely hotel
Excellent location, friendly staff. Very comfortable. Only minor negatives were waiting for a bar person in the evening. Friendly breakfast staff, good selection… bacon & eggs a bit tough with being kept hot, but I wouldn’t say this had affected our stay. Will come again if visiting Fort William

Very good choice at breakfast. Room very basic paper pealing of ceiling and too warm and stuffy with unpleasant view. A bit of a maze with floorboards on corridors slack and noisy and corridors very warm and stuffy. I can only comment on my room as I’m sure there will be much better quality of rooms than mine hopefully. I thought for the quality of my room and hotel in general it was not value for money and vastly overpriced. To say it was dated would be an understatement. Would not return. Sorry

Location wise this hotel is in a good location.
However, one of the rooms we booked had a broken window due to which the room was very cold and there was no heater/working radiator.
When we mentioned that to the receptionist, they didn't even apologise instead they said why didn't you tell us before? They were supposed to prepare the room and ensure it was suitable for guests. They also didn't replace the dirty towel.
Hence, not a good experience.

Convenient location. Rooms are clean and comfortable. No way to open window which made for stuffy room.

Hotel looks great from outside, lobby and dining area look great. The bedroom was disappointing. Out dated with stained worn out carpet. The bathroom leaves a lot to be desired. Decor was stuck in the 70’s. The bed was hard and uncomfortable. I slept well only because I was very tired. The location was good and the shops were easy to get to. Breakfast was good and the dining area was smart.

Staff were friendly and service was excellent. Dinner was good. Breakfast was average. Bed was comfy with a good mattress. Great to have a bath in the bathroom. Decor was ok, maybe a little tired in places. Overall a good stay.
