Property in good location overlooking the loch and right near the town. The hotel itself was a lovely little building with some nice warm sitting rooms to enjoy a drink. The restaurant was also very pleasant with nice food and drink selection.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was very nice but quite dusty. Bath and sink both need replaced. Found a tablet (medication) under the bed. Staff very friendly. Restaurant over priced and the food under seasoned. Not much choice either. £22 for vegan haggis! Definitely not worth it. Nice lounge areas and good Wi-Fi.

The property has some charm but really needs a refurb and attention to detail. Coal fires never on, a bit Spartan with furnishing in communal area, generally feels cold and unkept

Wonderful hotel on the edge of "downtown" Fort William. The room was unique, decorated with style. Large bathroom and shower (not to be taken for granted in Scottish guesthouses). Exceedingly friendly service at the reception desk and in the attached fine dining restaurant (dinner reservations required). Thank you, Lime Tree!

The hotel was very accommodating. We arrived late and left very early. They provided slim down but ample breakfast when we left.
