Wonderful star, though short
We had a short stay in Fort William while returning from Isle of Skye. Very comfortable rooms, friendly staff. We had dinner (paid) and breakfast (included) and both were wonderful. Hotel is located right next to a lake, very scenic.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was large, immaculately clean and decorated to a high standard. Bathroom gorgeous. Slept brilliantly, very comfortable bed, extra pillows provided and quiet. Breakfast was delicious, good selection of good, only criticism is that it could have been hotter. Perfect close location for a walk into town.

We loved the welcome and the cleanliness. Victorian outside. Modern inside. Bathroom was gorgeous. Room a good size. Easy to get to all of Fort William. No negatives other than could have done with some fresh fruit at breakfast. Loved the stay. Slept like a baby.
