While a bit run down, the hotel has a nice pub, and a pool with steam and sauna rooms. It is a great way to finish a long day of hiking. Staff were on top of things and friendly,
The single bedroom was perfect - nice shower room and comfy bed, good tea/coffee selection.
The outside of the hotel looks really shabby, it desperately needs a coat of paint.
Inside however the bar are was nice and the buffet breakfast very good. I’d stay again due to its reasonable rates
Great place to stay with my son to climb Ben Nevis. Spacious twin room, good facilities. The spa was a welcome treat for my sore legs!

The Hotel has seen better days, but is still functionally ok , It is however over priced for the facilities offered. Room was clean and relatively spacious , butentrance to hotel was dilapidated , and uniinviting
The hotel is an easy walk from downtown and provides a comfortable stay.

Our room was not in the main building. It was dated. We asked for 2 keys but told only 1 was allowed.Room was clean, but there was no ventilation in the bathroom, so after taking a hot shower and opening the window in the room, the mirror in the bathroom was still steamy.
Breakfast was adequate and the bar was fine.
The leisure centre was good. Lovely swimming pool, spa, steam room and sauna.

The hotel was located very conveniently for my business trip. Staff were helpful and the breakfast had a variety of options and the meal in the bar was lovely. Hotel is in need of updating as looking tired throughout.

Excellent heated pool, hot tub and sauna. Good bar and overall excellent location
There was no WiFi in the room. The room was clean. The beds were not comfortable. The hotel was very run down. It didn’t seem well looked after. Letter missing from the main hotel sign, over grown gardens, dingy outside walls. We ate off site.
I actually found this hotel promising than others in the city. Quite specious, Spa and other great facilities. Breakfast needs improvement but not a massive change required

Food was lovely staff excellent clean hotel with a very warm atmosphere
We had an updated room with a brand new bathroom and shower, BUT, the building seems like it’s falling apart, the bed was tiny, the pillows terrible. While the pool is very nice, the “Jacuzzi” was cold. At over $300/night, this was at best a 1-star hotel that may have been nice forty years ago, but is now in sad shape.
Very clean rooms, friendly staff. Great food at the pub in the hotel.

Our room was quite basic and a bit dated, but clean and tidy. There was a great selection of options for breakfast and it was delicious! The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely meal the night before for my Dad's 80th and the food was delicious and the staff were very attentive. Thank you!
We had a disappointing experience, especially for the high cost. The building is in a state of disrepair and requires major renovations and significant upgrades. I would not recommend this hotel. The food and service in the restaurant was good, however.
Excellent position for access to Fort William and Ben Nevis. Outstanding room and breakfast. The bar was lovely and the staff were very helpful. An excellent hotel, I would recommend.
Loved this place. Good staff, nice pool and jacuzzi which was very welcome after all the walking we had been doing. The morning breakfast, although not included, was excellent
