Very old but fairly clean. Front desk clerks were Fabulous and so kind. Restaurant staff were kind except a young blonde lady who was extremely rude and very hard to understand when she talked. The food was nice at the restaurant with reasonable prices. Bed s were old and hard but the rooms had a bathtub. Parking was difficult. I would stay there again.

The room smelled terrible. It got progressively worse, but I wasn't up for moving rooms even if that was an option. As I was trying to sleep the windows were rattling loudly with the wind.

The front desk lady very rude and liar. The room number 405 is full of bed bugs. (I am going to upload pics on trip advisor) The house keep staff is very good and helpful. They immediately made sure that we get refunded. But over all the room was extremely dirty, dusty, rotten smell, curtain all black with dust and spider webs. Windows were loaded with pile of dust.

Great location in Fort William! We were thrilled to found it available but seemed to be too good to be true. The carpet was shredded worn down to the netting in high traffic areas. There were mould spores on the bathroom ceiling, the tub drain needed to be cleared because a short shower left the tub almost completely full. The wifi didn’t reach to our room and when I inquired about another option, reception promptly told me to “turn my phone off and on,” as I’m in my 20s that gave me a little chuckle. The overall room was run down - not just outdated. The bathroom ceiling and walls have cracked. The photos show a quaint older hotel with character, the reality was unclean and rundown. Very disappointed

Hotel was in a great location, plenty of shops, bars and eating places nearby. Our room was ment to be a superior double, the outlook was awful looking into other room windows, was a closed courtyard type, if you could call it that, bird droppings and feathers everywhere, not what I was expecting whatsoever from a superior room. Room was small in size, no extractor in bathroom so it was extremely uncomfortable when having a shower, the bed was comfortable and large, duvet just about covered the mattress, pillows were so uncomfortable, hardly any filling in them. Bar staff were friendly, front desk staff were quite sour. The ‘shop’ turned out to be two cabinets at entrance to bar area, which was fine but front desk staff didn’t have access to any of the items as it was the responsibility of someone outwith hotel who only came on a Tuesday apparently, so no use to us as we were there Friday-Monday. Hotel was quiet and reasonably clean so that was good. We will return to Fort William but unfortunately won’t stay at this hotel again sorry.
