The main castle and grounds are nice and definitely recommended. We wanted to stay an additional night, almost two month before our date of visit, they could only offered us a room in their so called garden rooms outside of the castle and promised to the room is as nice. For nearly the same price the garden room was very basic and half size as our room in the castle itself. Very disingenuous! We reserved dining at their Michelin star restaurant, the service was excellent, but the food was averaged. There are much better restaurants around Fort William.

Absolutely stunning castle! The service was amazing and the people were incredibly friendly, courteous, and always helpful. We had an amazing time and felt treated like royalty. It was an amazing experience and we would recommend it 100x over. Truly recommend the dining experience, they cater to those who have dietary restrictions and go above and beyond to please. So nice to have this kind of service still around in the modern world.

Excellent.
Our stay was great. John and his team were superb. Service impeccable and the hotel stunning. Only quibble - it is advertised as dog friendly but dogs are only allowed in the bedroom. Obviously they should not be allowed in the restaurant etc. however We thought having a dog in the lounge would not have been a major issue.

Such an amazing trip
I cannot speak more highly about this hotel! The warm welcome from Kaitlyn, she makes you feel like you have come home and she is a constant presence making sure you have everything you need. Despite the cold outside the castle was lovely and warm, in both the rooms and the main lounge. The food is absolutely outstanding, we tried everything, we tried breakfast, afternoon tea, dinner in both the lounge and seagair restaurant, it is a foodies paradise and always served with smile. Everyone was so friendly which really makes you feel so relaxed. Can’t wait to go back.

Small touches make a difference
We stayed here one night as a part of a longer trip in Scotland. The hotel is beautiful and clean. The bed was super comfortable with high quality linens and the turn down service made it feel special. The real highlight was the incredible shower. I might be less excited about this if I hadn’t been traveling for 4 weeks and found the showers so be without pressure and often only hot for 5 minutes. But I’m pretty sure it was only partly that. The grounds are lovely and common rooms were comfortable. Staff members were helpful when they were around, sometimes you had to search them out.
