Overnight stay
Comfortable stay in a recently renovated room but parts of hotel looked very shabby, for the cost was still good value. The evening menu had a good choice I went for fish and chips it being Scotland unfortunately very disappointing grey supermarket fish with skinny fries and over cooked peas. Staff were pleasant and helpful.

Below expectations
Front of house upon arrival and throughout the duration of our stay was incredibly abrupt, condescending and rude to both me and my family as well as to every other guest with which he interacted. Not only was communication skills poor but his knowledge of what was advertised and what was actually available, was not correct. For example, restaurant was closed although online said was open, packed lunches were unavailable but still offered, and when we asked questions regarding the procedure to order and availability of food services out with the breakfast menu, we were met with hostility. The rest of our stay was acceptable and the breakfast offerings were really good, but the man who worked front of house during our stay (2nd January to 4th January) needs a course in customer service and manners. The restaurant staff were exceptional, knowledgeable and obliging, as was the woman on reception at check out.

Good hotel, good breakfast, good position
We had a very good stay at the Caledonian Hotel. The hotel was very good value, the breakfast was great and the staff friendly and helpful. I did find that we had to wait to get a drink at the bar in the evening on a couple of occasions as there was nobody about. However I accept that we were staying in late November and hotel numbers were probably way down on peak. I think the decor was a bit tired but not a problem. Perhaps could benefit from a lick of paint and some new carpets. I’m just adding this in as a nice to have. Not a requirement! The hotel position is a little way out of Fort William, so is really a drive into town rather than a walk. Well in cold wet weather certainly! I would have walked in summer. The view from the front across the Loch is beautiful. There are tables set out on the grass infront of the hotel for taking your drinks outside which would have been lovely in summer. The main A82 road does pass in front of this and is between the hotel and the Loch, but that’s not really a problem. We didn’t find the road noise a distraction from our room facing the Loch/road. From a position point of view, the hotel is well situated for exploring nearby and also quite far if you want to drive a bit. We went on one day to Skye, on another to Loch Ness and Culloden. Plus you are close to Ben Nevis, so can’t be bad! Overall we had a great stay, with great breakfasts to start our day.

Pleasent stay.
Nice size room. Clean and comfortable. Nice, buffet breakfast. Good bar with meal options. Nice view over the Loch linnhe (if you get a front facing room). You can walk into Fort William if you feel like a 1 hour walk. There is a bus but I don't know times/fares. It's best as a base to see other places line Ben Nevis, Glencoe, Oban etc.

Perfect for what i wanted, clean, warm, comfortable, and bonus- a bath! Not a complaint, just to help others, only 2 sockets in room, with kettle and tv already plugged in, so had to keep turning something off to use the socket. I was s solo traveller but with 2 people in room using many gadgets, could be tricky(take a double plug or small excrement lead)
