The room was very shabby! The bathroom was inoperable save for the toilet. The water didn’t work in the shower/tub and was barely working in sink. The water that did come out of the tap in the sink was luke warm at best. Don’t stay there! The best thing was the pub across the way which has nothing to do with said property.

Room definitely not in as good shape as the photos suggest. Was entirely unable to get any hot water in the shower. Location right next to a decently noisy road. Also every restaurant in town was unable for walk-up dinning and required getting on a waiting list or waiting in person for a table.

Everything was average for the most part aside from two things…the location was AMAZING! However, the bed in the room was horrendous. It hurt to sleep on. I wish I didn’t have to complain about it but after two nights of not being able to sleep and waking up in pain, I just feel it is right to give others fair warning.

Very good location, used as a stop over whilst travelling, easy check in, room was warm, tidy and comfortable. We ate in the bar area where there was a good choice from the menu & specials board, for us the hotel met our needs with very helpful friendly staff.

Old Fashion Hotel
Location and price are good. The hotel looks old but the room is renovated and clean. There is a heater in the room that make the room room enough. However, the bath room was very cold. Luckily, the water is hot. The Scottish breakfast is delicious and a small cereal / drink / fruit bar is included. The staff and decoration look professional.

We stayed here for one night as we were exploring the Highlands. The bathroom was so, so cold it made it almost impossible to even brush our teeth in there. The room was very basic and nothing to write home about.

We thought our room very tired, creaky floor boards and very noisy being close to the road, the bottle recycling trip at closing time and other fort William Friday night closing time shouting etc.

A nice hotel in a great location. We felt the price was high but all hotels in the West Highlands are expensive. The shower had very little power maybe as we were on the top floor? Breakfast was very good.

The room was clean, pretty big and having a fan was a big plus! The issue was that the area always has traffic on some level on the street below, it sits right on the road. There were also a considerate loud(possibly drunk) people as well. No elevator which was a big issue for us after a very long walk earlier so every step with the laggege was noticed. The shower had a weird prerequesit where you had to open the sink faucet to hot if you want pressure / hot water in the shower...

Nice hotel, shame about reception staff,
The hotel was very nice, clean and very good situated,, breakfast was very nice, near bars, restaurants, etc, only thing I could fault was the reception staff on arrival, very rude and miserable, end of day they shouldn’t be in the job if they don’t like it 🙃

Everything was good, but we didn’t realize there would be limited parking. Luckily we were able to secure parking in what appeared to be one of the last spots so it wasn’t an issue. Very walkable location to other restaurants and shops which was nice.

Great central high st' location, 5 minute walk from railway station. Friendly and very efficient staff - problem with shower in room, reported to reception and they immediately gave another room to use without question, even though was due to check out that morning. Would stay there again.

This hotel met our expectations. The room my wife and I had was rather small but our kids’ room was large. The facilities could use updating but overall it was adequate. The location was very convenient.
