2/10 Terrible

This hotel had a comfortable clean bed and clean bathroom. Front desk staff was lovely. The hotel itself is hideous and is desperate need of renovation. It actually looks like a run down prison.

Andy, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Building and facilities are very old. The bathroom is quite old and dated. The shower was so hot, without the ability to cool it off, that it was not usable! Great staff, bar, and food.
Sean, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice hotel
Colin, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Overall it's fine but breakfast needs better attention
Diego, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Realy helpful and nice staff. Evening entertainment was good. Beautiful views over Loch Linnhe. Good parking and unfortunately but not within walking distance of Fort William. Rooms dated and musty smell. Not bad overall but not worth the price we paid per night. Also bar drinks a bit pricey.
Alexander, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Had a great time at the hotel for the second year and will be back again
