The hotel is located near by the station and with a lot of restaurants around. But the hotel needs a makeover, we experienced issues with the heating water.

Good location. My room was a bit old but still had the necessary things. It was very noisy though, a generator(?) house in front of the window was making a lot of noise which you could hear with windows closed as well. The twin bed was a bit small.

Lovely hotel in perfect location for the train station. Dinners were fantastic and breakfast was good. We had no hot water on second morning and heating failed during the night. When we advised we had no hot water it was dismissed as “yes we know”.

Well located in Fort William, a good jumping off point for the Great Glen Way or ending point for the West Highland Way.
Checking was good, was able to check in early. But it looked like the small desk could get overwhelmed easily. Breakfast was a full buffet with all the usual items in the UK.
There is a bar for convenience, and a restaurant I did not eat in.
Property is dated. Still fine for what and where it is. It is very close to the beginning of the Great Glen Way, so convenient if that is your plan.

Walls are wafer thin. Drain were making a scary sound like from the under world.
Bfast scrambled eggs were runny.
On a good note: on request, we were give a baby cot. The staff helped putting it together too.
Staff at the restaurant was very kind, helped with the high chair.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, and breakfast and dinner were good, but the hotel is in need of refurbishment and decoration. Our bedroom had only single glazing so the window was covered in condensation for our entire stay. The hotel is very conveniently located for the railway station.

Friendly check in, room was basic but clean. Shower was hot and powerful. Room was slightly cold and heating was not on. Take ear plugs if you want a good sleep as you can easily hear people in neighbouring rooms. Cant complain too much for the price.
