"Ideal location - great budget option"

Stayed for one night whilst working in the area. Very friendly reception staff and smooth Covid safe checkin and lovely clean rooms with high levels of staff service. Did not have breakfast on this occasion but easy to walk into town (4 mins) to pick up coffee and pastry. Would like to return and stay post lockdown and visit the area o explore - high recommended.

"Great Value! Great Parking!"

Great location, easy to park and 5 minute walk to the centre. The room was standard Premier Inn, very comfortable. It does have the longest corridors we've ever seen and our room seemed to be at the end! Haha.

"It's good as long as you don't want a drink and know exactly when you want to eat."

I was staying here for 8 nights in early October. The hotel is quite well located. Not bang in the centre of Fort William but only about 5 minutes walk to the top end of the main shopping street and a similar distance to the rail station. There is a Morrisons and McDonalds close by and free parking. The room are large, clean well equipped and comfortable. I hoped to come back next year. However I had some problems during my stay. Not the fault of the hotel but still left wondering whether to book for next year. I was here for a walking trip, much of it in Knoydart, which has no mobile signal. If you want breakfast or dinner at the hotel you must book and specify a time. Difficult when I don't know exactly what time I'll get back to the hotel when setting off and in an area with no mobile signal this is difficult. So a few times I could not get an evening meal at the hotel because by the time I got back into mobile signal range all the "slots" were taken. Even when they were available, often an hour away so a long wait. An irritation but Fort William has plenty of other places to eat or drink. Or it did, when I arrived. The issue was that during my stay Queen Sturgeon of Scotland dictated that all restaurants shall be closed at 6pm. Now this is not the hotels fault, but it meant the only place to eat is the hotel restaurant. which was allowed to stay open but only serve hotel residents. Unfortunately this meant the restaurant decided to remove the ability to book a time slot for an evening meal from the website. Now you could only book it from hotel reception in person. So even less chance of getting a slot as I now couldn't book until I got back to the hotel (rather than within mobile range) and now every where else is closed too, so no alternative. So some nights I had to resort to getting cold food from Morrisons to eat since everywhere else was closed and the hotel restaurant was "full". Even when I could get a place Queen Sturgeon of Scotland also dictated you are not allowed to drink alcohol anymore unless you go outside. So if you wanted even a single drink with your meal I was told they would serve it only outside and you'd have to drink it all up before being allowed back in the restaurant. Ridiculous to be treated like a naughty child for wanting to have a drink. This combined with the need to wear a mask everywhere except in your room and that the rooms are no longer cleaned during your stay, it was not what I hoped. Unless the situation changes soon I think I will look at self-catering next year. One of the nice things about a hotel stay is no need to spend your time cleaning and cooking. Except now you often can't get a meal at a hotel and cleaning doesn't happen, this isn't so much of a benefit. So might as well stay somewhere you can eat when you want (even if you do have to cook first).

"Good Value"

Perhaps not in the nicest of spots, but the location is handy for the railway station, McDonalds, Morrisons and Lidl’s Supermarkets. Free car parking with an adjacent Brewers Fayre pub/restaurant. It’s a 10 minute walk into town. Rooms are large with decent sized TV, storage comes in the form of shelves and hanging space. Surprised at the number of wall sockets (7 No.) in the room which is pretty good. There was also an HDMI socket to facilitate media connections to the TV. Typically of Premier Inn the standard free WiFi is extremely poor and did not work at all after the first day. Reception area is a bit tight for space in the current Covid climate, and the number of people inside should ideally be restricted to allow access and egress for those customers that are already checked in. Premier Inn, if you’ve stayed in one before there’s no real change.

Hotel description When you visit the Scottish town of Fort William, you probably won't be spending too much time inside. But when you do, make sure you're at Premier Inn Fort William. We're a 5-minute walk from the train station and in the centre of this pretty town. In the West Highlands of Scotland, this breathtaking area is home to Ben Nevis, Britain's biggest mountain. Challenge yourself to some hiking and biking, cruise along Loch Linnhe play golf, admire local scenery from The Jacobite steam t train, or have a tipple at the Ben Nevis Distillery. When your legs are weary, tuck into a hearty meal at Brewers Fayre, our on-site restaurant, before drifting off in your super comfy, king-size bed ahead of another action-packed day.
