Nothing fancy but a good warm dry place to sleep. Check in staff was great. Not the cleanest but not bad either. Breakfast not worth it.

The room was very comfortable and we had a nice view over the water. Everything was solely clean. The only thing we felt could have been improved on was the lack of sockets.

The view of the loch was spectacular but unfortunately our room looked over the garbage bins at the back. Room and property conditions were very poor, went down for dinner to hear a commotion in the dining room as a few drunk lads were swearing and trying to pick a fight, we ended up driving into ft William for dinner. Did not get a lot of sleep as beds were lumpy and not very stable.

Beautiful view out front, easy and free parking. It’s more like a motel but was comfortable enough for one night. The food wasn’t great in the restaurant for dinner but the breakfast was decent. Convenient location.

A warm welcome, typical of other places in Scotland. Wonderful view of the loch from our window. Spotless room and comfortable bed at a value price.
