Lovely guest house within an easy walk of the train station and town center. Comfy bed and large bathroom. Apparently it was purpose built as a guest house some years ago, not converted from another building, which explains the size of the bathrooms. No lift. Allowed me to store luggage between checkout and sleeper train departure in the evening.

This was a very nice hotel in the heart of Stromness. Easy walk to shops and restaurants, and staff was very helpful and friendly. Our room was clean with a comfortable bed. Parking is at the ferry parking lot within walking distance, free overnight with a fee during the day. We enjoyed our stay here.

The location is perfect for access to the train station (including the Jacobite train) and bus station, just a 7 minute walk.
We had a nice view from our window. The room was very clean and we had everything we needed, including coffee and a press. Good quality tea as well with sugar and milk.
The only thing which might be a problem for some is the traffic, which does quiet down about 10 and the sounds from other rooms around you. The activity above is easily heard. We were quite tired at the end of the day and it was not much of an issue for us.
It is a lovely place to stay and close to everything.

Comfortable, clean room with new fixtures, everything perfect. Great shower. Quiet, very solid-seeming. Beautiful view over the town out to the water. No breakfast provided, but there is plenty of coffee and tea, plus a small fridge—we got breakfast stuff at Tesco the night before (5 minute walk) and it was grand. Highly recommended.

Great stay
It was a very nice room, very comfortable. Our room and the rest of property was extremely clean. There was a nice lounge downstairs. Brandy (owner???) was super helpful and friendly. Guest house within walking distance to train and bus station and to shops and restaurants in the town center. I'm only sorry we stayed one night.

This was a well cared for space. It was cozy and bright. Unfortunately, our room faced the evening sun, and it was brutally hot. A fan would have been helpful.

It was truly comfortable and welcoming. We will definitely book again!
Charming guest house in walking distance to town and the train station and a large super market for supplies.
Convenient to both Ben Nevis and the Nevis cable car. Good parking on site, very generous size room even with 2 double beds and a lovely bathroom.

This was a perfect place to stay with my college-aged children on a family trip. The room was spacious and clean, with plenty of lighting options (bedside lamps for reading, etc.). Location was excellent: close to train/bus station, shopping district, restaurant, and grocery store. A wonderful place to stay in Fort William!

Wonderful stay!
This was an amazing place to stay. Mark was so very kind and understanding when we were stuck in traffic and were a bit late. The room had a ceiling fan and the window opened which was amazing for some air. The room and bathroom were updated and very neat and clean. Wonderful place to stay!

Good rooms and close to town centre
Good location close to town centre. Recently renovated so good quality room and bathroom.
Everything was good apart from lack of sound proofing between the floors. We could hear (muffled) conversation and movement in the room above us.
