We stayed one night in a suite which was great - except there was a bright green exit sign on the door in the bedroom that made it hard to sleep.

We enjoyed our stay at the Garrison. The only issue was construction is happening onsite and the parking was very limited. Otherwise a good location for going into Fort William

Better lighting in walkway and stairs for the suites would be great. It was dark and a bit dangerous feeling, but otherwise, it was a great stay.

Only given 3 stars for breakfast because we never had it and i was unable to select anything else. Very nice hotel clean and restful. Defo recommend and would stay again. Staff nice and helpful so very good. One observation is the shower cubicle is really dark inside and a child i think would not like it. Thats the only downside

Nice stay at a simple, clean hotel with a cool theme. The room was a bit tight for two, but very quiet at night. Windows opened wide for fresh air which was nice.
