A good stop in Scotland. Right opposite to Ben Nevis. The scenic view could never be forgotten.

The proximity to local attractions and daily necessities is the main selling point of this accommodation. And the spectacular lake view of the dining hall brings another enjoyment to your breakfast for starting a day !

This hotel is not just old school in its design but also old school in its mindset. Be prepared to be discriminated against by the colour of your skin. The body language and demeanour of the staff is to keep you off. Right from the time we arrived to the time we left( a family of four in two rooms) we were made to feel unwelcome. The property was hosting a bunch of French vintage rally drivers who seem to be the first class customers and we the havenots having paid the room tariffs. It started with we being asked to park at the rear of the building although there was ample parking space in the front. The people in the bar even told us that they don’t serve any food until we protested as there are no eateries close by at 8 pm unless you drove 2 miles to Fort William.Breakfast was another torture with even coffee not replenished in time. All in all a black spot in an otherwise lovely Scottish holiday.

The building and the furniture are very old. The choices of the buffet breakfast are limited.

I really like this hotel. The view is amazing, and the reception is very friendly. They also have a restaurant and bar downstairs, which is really a saver for us after a long day of driving.

There are not many hotels in Fort William that are open in winter. This one is the best value for money in winter. It is about a 20-minute walk from the center of the city. There is a large free parking lot and the room is clean and spacious.

The room is good value for money. When you open the curtains, you can see the lake. The breakfast is also good. The only problem is that the heating is insufficient. Who needs to wear thick underwear at night?

The hotel infrastructure is not friendly to travelers with large suitcases. The facilities and decoration in the hotel are a bit old, but combined with the price, it is very cost-effective. The location is still about 15 minutes' drive from the town, and there is a lake view outside the hotel. You must have breakfast. The breakfast is rich in dishes, replenished in a timely manner, and has a beautiful view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows! Big push
