Hotels near Loch Linnhe Picnic Area in Fort William

I really like this hotel. The view is amazing, and the reception is very friendly. They also have a restaurant and bar downstairs, which is really a saver for us after a long day of driving.

On arrival we were met at the reception desk by a very laid back guy He informed us we had been given an upgrade ,and our room was overlooking the Loch Room was large and well maintained,Bed was huge would have slept four if you are in to that sort of thing The Hotel is close by for the High Street and the Station Only complaint was the noise coming from the room above .Sounded like they were wearing Doc Martin boots on there feet,.But of course the Hotel cannot be held accountable for that.Perhaps they could put a note in the rooms asking that they respect the people in room below One tip.The restaurants get busy very early,as there are a lot of North Americans staying in area,so would recommend you book a table where possible

So this is not where I wanted to stay in Fort William however I booked with them because I wanted to use up Avios Points and this was the only place in town that took them. So checking in was a breeze, very old school. I was given a key and that was it since I had pre-booked. I liked this. No bond, passports required etc. Check out was also easy and no sly extra charges. The staff were lovely and friendly and room service was done well. I booked a standard room but received one of the Four Poster rooms which was great. Though I did feel I still paid quite a bit for this room, so perhaps they upgraded me. Maybe I did buy the posh room and the Avios website made an error. The Breakfast buffet is well priced and extensive. Perfect for filling up before climbing the Ben. The dinner was okay with a changing menu. The Hotel is in need of an upgrade, cracks, mould in places and the Spa and pool area had the feeling a a public pool but it was nice to have those facilities. Joe public can make use of the pool which I think is a activity families do on a wet day. Location was not ideal either, A bit too far to walk into town compared to other hotels. Look it was okay, a mixed back, I would recommend but I would also be keen to try something different should I return.

We stayed at the Corriegour Lodge Hotel for 2 nights between the 9th - 11th of September. The Lodge is a wonderful old converted Hunting Lodge by Loch Lochy, which is between Loch Ness and Spean Bridge. The Lodge is around halfway down the Loch and is isolated from most local amenities, that may be a good thing for some people or it may be a bad thing, you will certainly have to drive for a good 15 - 20 minutes to get to the nearest town (Spean Bridge), but I'm assuming most people staying at the lodge will have transport so shouldn't be a problem. The owners are very nice people who do their upmost to ensure that your stay is the best it can be. Also to note that the Lodge does have its own private beach which you can use (we never did, but you can), however, the Lodge sits the other side of the A82 from the Loch, meaning, in order to use the beach you have to cross the relatively busy road. When looking at the pictures of the Lodge on Trip Advisor you could be easily mistaken for thinking that the Lodge sits right on the edge of the Loch, but that's not the case, something to bear in mind. The grounds of the Lodge itself are very nice with ample parking, complete with its own waterfall in the back garden. The room we had was Room 4 which had a nice view of Loch Lochy (see pictures), the room itself was a decent size, had its own small bathroom with toilet, sink and shower and was very clean. The bed was large and comfortable. We were aware of the prices of the restaurant for the evening meal and so decided not to eat at the lodge for our evening meal, instead choosing to eat at some other local restaurants which were very good. However, we did have breakfast every morning (as it was included in the price). You have to make your breakfast selection the night before which wasn't an issue for us, but for some people it may feel a bit limiting. The breakfast itself was very nice, every morning I had the full breakfast, Bacon, Egg, Lorne Sausage (which is like a square sausage, quite nice). The only thing I felt was that the breakfast was a bit dry, due to the lack of serving something like Baked Beans with the full breakfast, but, to be fair your getting a full Scottish Breakfast not an English one. The views out of the restaurant are stunning, looking out over Loch Lochy and the Great Glen. There are 2 rooms downstairs which are for exclusive use by the hotel guests, these are a wonderful sitting room with a log fire and a small whiskey bar which sells a variety of bottled beers, ciders and of course whiskeys. It's a nice place to have a drink, but just be aware that the prices are not cheap. The lodge itself is decorated in a very rustic old style which we actually really liked and think it makes the Lodge seem very warm and cosy, almost like stepping back in time, which is a good thing. This may not be to everyone's taste, if you are the sort of traveler who likes new and modern then this place is not for you. I personally enjoyed my

We were looking for accommodation in the Lochaber area as a base for a kayaking weekend, and Corran bunkhouse fit the bill perfectly. Everything is good quality, and the rooms are clean and functional - ours had a nice ensuite too. There is a large common room with comfy seating and a log burner which was a nice place to relax, but we usually ended up sitting in the communal dining kitchen. The kitchen had everything you could need to make from snacks to big meals, and there was plenty of food storage and fridge space. Plenty of space to sit and eat too. A really big plus was the two drying rooms, one off the kitchen which had a dehumidifier, and another outside, which allowed lots of wet gear to be dried quickly - a real bonus if you're there for a few days. The owner Alan couldn't be more helpful, and gave us tips on the best places to eat wherever we were going. I can thoroughly recommend getting the ferry over to Ardgour to the pub for food. A minute from the bunkhouse, its free for foot passengers, the crossing takes about 5 minutes, and is a nice way to go to dinner. Overall i cant recommend the place highly enough. A modern, clean and enjoyable place to spend a night or two.

Stayed at this hotel when we had a trip to Scotland,Our train was cancelled and i was worried we would miss the reception which closed at 11 o clock at night.I rang the hotel in a panic but was reassured if i was late it would be fine,luckily we got there before 11 and were even able to get a drink even though the bar was about to close.Breakfast the next morning was lovely and there was plenty of choice.bedroom was a good size and had a spectacular view of the lake.Would highly recommend this hotel and its location to the railway station.

Quite simply the most outstanding ”self-catering/hotel” accommodation I have ever stayed in. We stayed in Strathcona Lodge No.14. The accommodation was luxurious with everything you could possibly need and more. You get the freedom, space and flexibility of self catering style with the luxury and service of a hotel. After a long day hiking in Glencoe mountains there was nothing better than coming back to the Lodge and sitting in the hot tub for an hour before a hot shower, slipping into my comfy clothes, having a glass of wine, cooking one of the exceptional delicious ready made meals and watching TV and reading a book, with a few more wines of course. The fridge, wine fridge and bar were fully stocked for our visit. The quality of the ready-made meals (breakfast and dinner) was exceptional. I also have to say that the pricing of the maxi-bar and wine was very reasonable. This is often an area where hotels will try and ”cash-in” but this was not the case in Glencoe House and I applaud the owners for this. I j just can't say enough good things about Glencoe House. This place is truly exceptional and I will definitely go back and I highly recommend it to anyone.

We had a friendly welcome in reception and found our rooms spotless, very well equipped and pleasant. They were not particularly big, but were singles and had all that was needed, The (double) beds in particular were very comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant which was very good and provided an excellent choice. Staff in all areas were friendly and helpful. For anyone with mobility issues, there is no lift but I believe help was available with luggage if requested. The rooms had walk-in showers.
