Moorings Hotel

Any issue we had was resolved quickly. Great food. Really couldn't fault anything. If I ever come back to the area definitely booking here

The hotel is excellent and the staff are very friendly. What makes it extra special is that they remember your name which makes you feel 'at home'. and you start to speak to them as if you have known them for a while. I booked for 4 nights and extended this by a further 3. The location of the hotel is one of its strong points. You can easily walk to Fort William and hike part of the West Highland Way up the Caledonian Canal. I walked all the way to Achnacarry and the Clan Cameron museum, but it's great for touring also. If you're a Harry Potter fan, the steam train passes multiple times a day (when in season) but personally to me it will always be The Jacobite. I have stayed a numerous 'highland' hotels and all feel 'tired' in some respects, it's the nature of the business and the climate they operate in. However, The Moorings Hotel doesn't feel tired. The breakfast is great and has a decent selection and the evening meals are worth the money and plentiful - definitely try the the Sticky toffee pudding. I will have no hesitation in staying here again and as mentioned before it really is now my 'go to' hotel when in the Highlands. I have had numerous rooms over the years and all are fine.

The top car park is easily filled especially when vans use them. Obviously these spaces are are fist come first served but to me, it would make sense for any larger vehicles to use the lower car park.

Location was great next to the canal and Ben Nevis.

Quite tired and grubby inside in the communial areas. Our bedroom window frame had complete rotted out, collapsed and would not shut properly. We were too scared to try and close it incase the whole thing fell out!

Breakfast was ok, dinner ok but small in quantity.

Rooms are very old fashionned, got a water crank in my hand, noisy, close by the road, Shower separation in poor plastic, very tiny bathroom. On arrival, around 4PM, had to look arou d to get my room key in a re-used pouch.....
