What a lovely place!! So central and handy for accessing everything in Fort William. The staff were really delightful, and made us feel so welcome! Rooms extremely clean and beautiful, with gorgeous views from the rooms and breakfast room. A delicious breakfast as well (especially the buttery scrambled eggs!). What a gem - we will most definitely be back!!

Warm welcome. Clean comfy room with wonderful views. Comfy beds. Tea and coffee in room. Hot tasty breakfast, plenty to choose from. Everything you need for a comfortable stay. Situated a short 10 minute walk from the town centre or a quick £4 taxi ride.

Not the cleanest room I have slept in, but still a good spot where to stay a night if you're hiking.Good shower, though.Good breakfast, too.Boys and girls working there were very nice.In general, I'd say it's ok if you're on a budget.

A really good experience. The hosts were both really friendly and welcoming. Rooms are dated, but they're clean with a comfortable bed and a nice hot shower. Breakfast was great. Some of the reviews on other apps are extremely unfair and possibly reflect people wanting champagne service at beer prices.

The service from staff was good, and the price was ok compared to other hotels nearby. Breakfast was nice, with a reasonable selection of items.Some of the fixtures in the room had a ‘DIY’ feel to them, the owners should consider improving the workmanship. There was also a knocking sound from some pipes which was annoying.Overall, not a bad experience, I would use this hotel again.

Tired, dusty, electrics dodgy. So pleased this is a one night stay. I feel they think they are more than they actually are. I doubt I will come back unless the recent reviews are excellent. The bed was also far too soft the the pillow too thin. Let's hope breakfast is OK, some how I don't it.

The host was not very welcoming at all. Just telling us the usual story without any passion.Our room was directly behind the counter. We had two single beds in a room that was way too small for two beds. The room and bathroom were clean tho!Breakfast was ok. Only downside is that you’ll only get to pick one main breakfast trough a form and some cereal and toast were unlimited.Overall you pay way too much for this guest house for what you’ll get. Should have been 50% cheaper and it would be good.
