Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Really worn and dated. I was in room 205 and could hear the lift squeal through the wall every time it was used. The bed was really hard. The plumbing was so loud when I flushed the toilet. I had to leave at 6am and felt really sorry for anyone in rooms next to, above our below mine it must have woken them up. £72 for a single room as described for 1 night seems too expensive, excludes breakfast.

Great staff. The property itself needs some money putting into it. It’s kind of lacking direction and needs sprucing up Breakfast needs better attention, just get 3 more coffee machines and present the food better

Property needs a refurbishment. The room we were allocated seemed tidy, however it had an unbearable smell in it. We advised reception and she sent someone to look at it. We were advised it was a plumbing issue and may go away of the taps were run for a while. The receptionist, Inga, however found us another room, which didnt smell. This room was stuffy and tired looking. Inga was very nice and helpful .

Jump off for Great Glen Way

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.
