I thin the hotel deserves a higher score than shown. It was friendly, the room was large and well kitted out with sockets and the bathroom was a good size too. The breakfast was tasty, the bar could do with a larger range of beers.

The Caledonian hotel was clean and simple but very pleasing. The room was average sized and comfortable. The location is wonderful right on the loch with a great view, walkways, and convenience to the outdoor activities around Fort William. The food at the hotel was also very good and there is a large dining room. Recommended!

Great staff. Property is a bit older so don’t expect all the updated amenities. Clean for the age of hotel. Perfect for an overnight or a short trip. Beautiful location and super friendly staff. Will stay again.

Good location and great view of loch. I did drive by the place as I missed the sign. The property could use a refresh, but “come for the food” - they had a really nice 3 course menu - the dining room staff very friendly and attentive - the food was very good.

Disliked: Amenities
Very average hotel, bed was clean and comfortable, staff rude on checking in we arrived 1hour early and uncertain terms told check in not possible until 4pm , not an offer of a seat in the lounge or anything. After asking about an attraction we could go and see offered no assistance to where it might be so not a very happy arrival. Food in bar menu was poor tikka curry had very little chicken and my mushroom soup was a very small bowl with not much flavour except pepper. Drinks expensive with no price list to see before purchasing 2 gin and tonics were 16 pound.was convenient for fort William and not hard to find on main road. Was ok place to stay for 1 night
