My Second visit to this Hotel, and hopefully I will return. The Staff are attentive and friendly. A nice Bar and restaurant. The Hotel is a few steps away from the Main Street. My Room overlooked the Loch and was clean, and quiet.

Lovely room with a view , spotlessly clean and a lovely breakfast. Already looking forward to our next visit. Only downside is that, Fort William is really quiet out of season.

Loved our room with view of the Loch. Staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. Great breakfast and location perfect. The only fault was the weak pressure on the shower.

The location was great for walking the area--shopping and restaurants all around the corner. The room itself was ok-good enough for our one night stay. Couldn't get the heat to work and the shower didn't have much pressure. Hair dryer didn't work. overall thought is was pricey for what it was.
