    Our "sea view" was bogus from the floor we were on, just a filthy roof, and no "sea view". If you don't have it, don't advertise it. This 3 star hotel is nice but older. Not worth the price I paid. Not up to 2024 standards. The elevator capacity is 2 people. Not up to international standards.

    Excellent buffet breakfast, excellent receptionist, Asked for a fan and got one. Perfectly close to the train station downtown. Close to restaurants and shops. The pub area, breakfast room and salons were spacious, quite nice.

    The room was extremely HOT with the radiator off and the window open. I couldn't find where the heat was coming from to stop it but the room just kept getting hotter and hotter. It did cool down a small amount overnight but by morning it was back to hot

    Good location.

    Not much parking out front and with the scaffolding it wasn’t obvious there was further parking round the side. The room was incredibly warm even with the window open. It was a steep price for one night that didn’t include breakfast. Food was fine, run of the mill but felt overpriced for what is was.

    The location was handy n easy to find. The rooms were clean n the majority of staff were friendly n helpful. Near a public carpark when onsite parking full.

    Hotel a bit tired, could do with an update and noise from other bedrooms quite noticeable.

    Excellent staff, especially James in the Bistro and young waiting-on staff. Reception staff very welcoming and helpful. Food in bistro was excellent and very good breakfast. Excellent location to amenities.

    This is a 3 star charging 4star prices…. Money needs to be spent …. There are signs of dampness and paper peeling around the windows .. the bathroom has seen better days and needs to be replaced …. The overall decor needs to be thought thru …. Brown is not a colour today

    Position was excellent .. very clean staff excellent and food was good

    The staff for breakfast lacked professionalism and seemed as though they didn't want to be there. It is a very old hotel that needs a bit of TLC so don't go there expecting a shiny brand new hotel. Our stay was still enjoyable, it just needed a face lift. We stayed 2 nights, got there late the first afternoon, we were on the Jacobite all day the next day and stayed that night, drove to Glencoe the next morning.

    The location is perfect for access to Fort William train station to board the Jacobite steam train, the walk is less than 2 minutes. Very close to High Street where there are lots of great pubs and restaurants. The shower was good, beds were comfortable at large. Reception staff were tentative and friendly on arrival. The hotel is old but it has a lot of nostalgia, we loved the creaky floors and all round feel of Faulty Towers 😆

    the hotel is a bit old with much needed updates, pretty run down. We were not able to eat at the Bistro, they were booked.

    I had the wrong day for my booking and if it wasn't for Celest we would have had no place to stay. We did not care what room we received just to have one was a blessing just like Celest. Great staff. Breakfast was good
