We really enjoyed the breakfast, everything was in walking distance and the hosts were friendly.

United KingdomLocation was good compromise between being close to the town centre, but off the main road and towards Ben Nevis. I liked the fact that you didn't have to leave our (soggy) walking boots in the room and also we could eat our own food in the dining area away from our room. (Obviously breakfast was included, so this comment does not apply to breakfast.) Having DVDs with a DVD player in the room was a nice, unexpected touch that I haven't seen elsewhere.

United KingdomProperty was in a great location and close to amenities. There is a stream that runs through the yard which makes it extremely inviting!

United States of AmericaThe guest house is a 10 minute walk from the train station and conveniently located close to the city centre. Steve and Cathy are very gracious hosts who run a tight ship. The hotel is very clean and very hospitable. I would highly recommend this place.

United States of AmericaAn outstanding, exceptional, guest house. My room was superb. Steve and Cathy were brilliant. They went the extra mile. The location is great. It's at the start of the Glen, so although there are vehicles heading to and from the Ben Nevis visitor centre it's nothing like the busy main road in Fort William centre. Indeed, if you want to walk around Glen Nevis, including the Ben itself, this is a great spot. I would stay here again like a shot! The best guest house I've ever stayed in.

United KingdomMy husband and I had a great stay at Ben Nevis Guest House. The location was perfect for exploring Fort William and climbing Ben Nevis (just a 2 min drive or 20 min walk to the Ben Nevis visitor centre!) We loved the location, clean and cosy room, friendly hosts and the breakfast was fabulous! My husband said the black pudding was the best he had ever had. Our hosts were also very kind and made us packed breakfasts for the day we climbed Ben Nevis. Thank you for a lovely stay :)
