I went up for a job interview and fell in love with the views which were breathtaking. The people were polite and welcoming on the whole. The food was good when we had dinner or lunch outside the hotel.

Fort William as a town needs investment, depending on why you are there I suppose would change your opinion.
Ben nevis 10 mins away, beautiful loch on doorstep fishing , climbing walking, down hill cycling, ski ing, diving all plus points.
Night time especially week night useless.
Morar and Mallaig to the North beautiful and in summer amazing beach at Morar.
If you are there for hobby or sport great base camp, if you are a tourist and like entertainment at night during the week go somewhere else.

Fort William was as nice as usual however please note certain businesses are only open during tourist season. We also enjoyed filling up on the gondolas at Nevis Range. I must say though, try and avoid Caledonia hotel. The toilet was like what you get in a nursery and my private parts in the water. Carpet threadbare, wallpaper coming off the walls due to dampness, a very uncomfortable bed, adjoining door that we were not made aware of. Electricity was off on arrival and due to my dust allergies and at 3pm the room had not been cleaned, we left and checked in later. There was still dirt in the room and at the top of the bed, I caughed thru the night both nights. When it rained you could hear a loud drip from within the wall cavity. I'm not a confrontational person and didn't feel comfortable bringing the issues up with reception, so just be warned. The lift was out of order too. Beware room 220!!! Such shame being a brilliant location .

Fort William is a nice little town very well located.
Fort William is a nice little town very well located. It's ten minutes away from Ben Nevis and 45mn from Glencoe ski resort. Before that, you have all the Glencoe mountains to explore. There are still a lot to do during winter, even if snow sports are not an option due to lack of snow and/or high winds. You have the West Highland Museum, a brand new movie theatre, the Ben Nevis distillery, an indoor climbing centre, etc.

Fort William is beautiful and has lots of areas to check out within a short drive. A great place to stay and visit the Harry Potter sites (by car) plus the views are spectacular. We also enjoyed plenty of the bars and cafes and enjoyed a night at the local cinema too.
Cruachan hotel is situated very close (walking distance in mild weather) to the main street of Fort William. Free parking is available and check in is super easy. There are elevators to the higher floors so if you are travelling with large bags, there is no need to lug them up stairs. We woke up to snow on the morning that we stayed, and it was so beautiful to see it falling across the Loch from the window in our room - very picturesque! Try Spice Tandoori for a delicious indian dinner in the main street of Fort William.
The view (Executive Double Room) was stunning (boats, canal, mountain). We like the site of the hotel, although it is a few miles to Fort William and his advantages (we are travelling per bus - every 30 minutes and train - 2 - 3 times a day). Bus station and train station are a 5 minutes walk! We tested also Hi-Bike (rent a e- bike for 30 minutes/2.50).
A highlight was the spontanous possibility for an early check-in on a rainy day ...
Absolute joy to stay at this property can't say a negative thing about it. Sitting in the living room looking out across the loch is wonderful. Everything you need is just five minutes away by car in Fort William. Major food outlets like McDonald's and KFC, plus pricey restaurants if that's your preference. Big name supermarkets also.
Sat nav takes you to the property where you park outside your door.
Perfect choice.
We loved the breakfast here! The staff were super friendly and the room was very cute and cosy. The hotel was also perfectly located to walk into Fort William and do some shopping with a short 15 min walk to the train station and bus stop. It was also only 40 min from the Glenfinnan Viaduct, which was breathtakingly beautiful (we definitely recommend that trip and this hotel!) Absolutely loved our stay here!!
I couldn’t have been happier to stay at Gowan Brae. The room was well appointed with everything I could’ve needed, the location was far enough from the Main Street to be quiet but a quick walk from restaurants, and the proprietor, Anne, was affable and welcoming. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and made better with a view of the Loch. I would recommend to anyone visiting Fort William.
This cabin was absolutely stunning! They have got everything that you need in there. Gives you the thrill of living in a cabin with the convenience of a loaded hotel studio. The kitchenette is fully equipped.
I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a stay in Fort William.
Another exciting add-on is that the steam train passes right behind the property.
Definitely would recommend Muthu Fort William hotel! Great location,delicious food,good facilities and Staffs were really nice and lovely! Rose-ann,Jhan and Andrew were so hospitable and helpful that made our stay a comfortable and memorable one!😊 We will be back soon! 💯
A very nice and cost effective hotel close to Fort William, very friendly staff and beautiful views from the breakfast area/some rooms of the lake. There is a bus going to town, so being a bit further away from Fort William was not a problem.
We liked that this was in a convenient location, but away from the hustle and bustle of Fort William. In addition, Lynda suggested a good dinner restaurant that we could walk too, and Scott made some awesome Scottish pancakes for breakfast.
Hotel is fantastic location, walking distance to shops,bars and basically anywhere you are looking to go in Fort William. Hotel was spotless, room was modern, cosy, and bed so comfortable. Restaurant food was absolutely delicious.
The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was great and it gave me plenty of energy to ride from Fort William to Inverness. The view from my room was amazing - Ben Nevis was starring straight at me in the morning.
Beautiful views of Ben Nevis, a delightful host, warm and welcoming, fantastic breakfast, a quiet retreat but close to Fort William. Great for couples, hiking, biking, taking in the North.
Good place to stay for a nights stop over in Fort William. Felt more of a small hotel rather than a B&B but provided everything you needed all the same and a good breakfast.
a really pleasant albeit quite traditional hotel but quite appropriate for the area. well situated for all the expected attractions of Fort William and surrounding area.
The location is excellent in Fort William. The room was very nicely done and comfortable. Hotel has lots of amenities inside aswell with the bar and restaurant.
