Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a warm and welcoming reception for a week in cottage no7, featuring very comfy accommodations with all modern conveniences. The service is exceptionally friendly and attentive, making the holiday experience truly enjoyable. The location is ideal, not far from the Ben Nevis visitor centre and perfect for climbing adventures, though some pitches may lack appeal visually. Dining options are satisfying, especially for fans of Singapore noodles, and overall, the amenities are modern and well-maintained.
The hotel offers a peaceful setting with beautiful views and modern amenities. The rooms are comfortable, but may feel cramped for two adults. The service is friendly and helpful, though some complaints were not fully addressed. The location is stunning, surrounded by nature yet close to Fort William. The dining options are not discussed, but the premium meats are highlighted. The facilities are clean and convenient for guests.
Staying at the caravan park was a mixed experience. The spacious accommodation was great for us, but it would have been very cramped for two adults sharing. The service from the staff here was exceptional, always going over and above what is needed, even in near 30-degree heat. The location was absolutely perfect, clean and tidy holiday grounds located throughout the park, perfect for walking Ben Nevis and Glen Nevis. However, on a rainier day between the caravan and Ben Nevis, it might not be as enjoyable. Organic fruits were available, but there wasn't much detail about the dining experience.
