This is a fantastic hotel. The hotel is a short walk from Fort William, providing access to great food and drink venues. The hotel is very clean and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. Nothing is too much trouble. It's a pet friendly hotel and dogs are made to feel very welcome. Very good facilities. Although there is limited free parking on site, a pay and display car park is a short walk away. This a great place to stay. I have been lucky enough to travel around the world but this hotel is one of my favourite stays. Thank you to all the staff!

Excellent location for walking into town. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Rooms are clean but very small with the room being 2.5 m x 2.5 m, and bathroom is not big either. Though the hotel did provide bottled waters, chips and waffles as a welcoming gesture.

Great hotel and even greater location. Really comfy bed, everything was clean and the shower was really good! Can’t complain about anything other than it didn’t look anything like a cell .

Can’t say enough how much we enjoyed our stay. It was very clean and spacious. The bed and shower were amazing. I wasn’t expecting it to be this nice. So it was a pleasant surprise!

Quirky room!
We had one of the 'cell rooms' with a bunk. Impossible for the person on the bottom bunk to see the TV! Ladder on bunk also in an odd location. Slight leak in bathroom. That said, all very clean, breakfast good and staff friendly and helpful. Would stay again.

Great location in Fort William. Walkable to the city center with shops and restaurants. There is also a good atm at the Scott Bank slot 3 minutes walk. Room was clean and spacious. We booked a suite since we had 3 people and it was perfect. Note: the exit sign stays lit up. We draped a jacket over it because it was bright and right over the bed.

We stayed in bunk beds in a cell room which as you can imagine, is quite small. No room for suitcases, only backpacks. It was clean and comfortable though and had an attached toilet. The dedicated shower for this room was a short walk away. They did however provide bathrobes and slippers for this very reason. We only stayed one night and had a lovely breakfast there.

Lovely hotel. Great location at end of Main Street. Quiet and clean . Nice friendly staff. Double room very stylish but small. No wardrobe just hanging space. Can only just get around the big bed. No armchair as no room for one. Very smart ensuite shower room. Lovely breakfast with really nice choices .
