Fort William Hotel Guide - West Highland Museum hotels in Fort William, United Kingdom.

"I would say with the limited hotel options in Ft William it was fine. It is an older hotel with an updated room but very small, we had 2 twins. We did not eat there. It seemed booked up at our stay early May 2026"

"rooms dirty, dusty and to a poor standard"

"Noisy building, can hear people talking in other rooms."

"Breakfast was fine bar ok"

"The overall experience was"

"Good location "

"We had a pleasant stay at this hotel largely part to it's location. Perfect for exploring the area and hiking Ben Nevis, The breakfast was a standout. With plenty of options and a great start to each day, The staff was friendly and accommodating, always happy to help and mad us feel welcome. The hotel itself could benefit from some updating. They might have already begun to do so as our bathroom was refreshed and new but the rest of the room was quite dated but clean."

"Parking was a problem. Property was in the middle of construction."

"This is very much a hostel for the price of a hotel. The front door was unlocked (and remained so the entire stay) upon arrival and there was no front desk or check in area. You are essentially walking into someone’s (messy) home. We eventually knocked on the door labeled private and a confused woman said to go to the open room with the key in the door- did not confirm our name, reservation number, or anything. I asked about parking, as the street parking available mentioned being permit required, and was handed the woman’s personal cell phone to speak with “the owner”. “The owner” assured me it was not a big deal but could provide us the permit in person in “20 minutes to an hour”. Not wanting to waste our trip awaiting this unnamed person, we asked them to leave the permit under our door and message us through the Expedia app when this was done. The shower in room was an ADVENTURE. You had to pull a string to start the water, slide the glass shower door that opened inwards, and navigate a box in shower with 2 knobs. The water was either ice cold or molten hot, and we just had to speed run our shower and alternate between the two temperatures. I will say the breakfast provided was yummy- lots of snack items, fruit, granola, yogurt. Unfortunately there was no space to eat in the room other than the bed (there was also no common kitchen/dining area we could have gone to alternatively). Overall we did not feel entirely safe staying here and would not recommend. "
