Great to be on the beach but that was the ONLY likable feature of the property. Rooms were old and dirty. Only a bright overhead light in the room. 10 min drive to Ft William.
Wouldnt stay there again.
Allowed us to check in slightly early with no issues at all. Staff all really professional and attentive. The cabins are fantastic and the views breathtaking.

The hotel has a fantastic location for visiting Glencoe and on the shores of a loch with its own beach with great sunsets and rainbows. The internal decor is rather dated and tired in places though our room had a decent bathroom and view over the loch. Serviceable restaurant and bar. Friendly helpful and efficient staff.
We stayed at one of the cabins on the lake side - they were great and we loved the experience. Only issue was with the bathrooms that don’t drain fast enough and there were no cloth racks/hangers to keep our clothes. Staff were great and very friendly to talk to.
Right on the water but traffic on the other side a bit noisy. Great food and service. Pretty setting

Cobwebs in the bedroom, communal areas tired and dirty. Bedroom window either open or closed, no halfway open position; hinges broken / not correctly adjusted. TV squint on wall, only enough power sockets to have kettle, TV OR heating on in the room - pick 2 you can't have 3. 1 bedside lamp for a double bed... needs someone who cares about what customers want in a hotel to address the issues. Matress lumpy, noisy and clearly very old / poor quality.

Staff were friendly & helpful. There was no lift so I had to manage the stairs on crutches. The whole interior is looking very tired and dated. There was no resident bar facility or mini bar in the room.
My room had spiders in it and there was a very strong bleach smell. I mentioned it to the staff came downstairs and they told me if you want to change rooms you have to pay an extra £40. They came upstairs to clean everything but the smell was still there. They offered me free dinner because they didn’t want to change my room cause they will keep on saying that the hotel is fully booked, but when I went on the online again, it’s still available and then suddenly they showed me a room which is available because it was a double room not a single room they tried to tell me I have to pay an extra £40 if I want to get that room and I told them that I can’t sleep in that smell it was middle of the night. I had no choice but to sleep in that smell and in the back condition, plus it was third floor and had no lift.
