Guest Reviews
- Allan (8/5): -
- Iain (9/5): Would stay again if in that area. -
- Ruth (10/5): A Beautiful, Well Thought Out Space. - Every little detail was thought of…it was lovely. Beautifully appointed, comfortable beds, everything we needed was there. Thanks. Parking spot #7 was super narrow next to a wall. We didn’t need it but parking would have been challenging there.
- Mckeown (9/5): - Loved the apartment it was very clean and comfortable with lovely facilities . Great view of Ben Nevis. If the weather had been a little better it would have been perfect. To be we honest on arrival were a bit worried about the entrance and stairway it didn’t bode well for the apartment. However the apartment was beautiful, clean and very very comfortable.
- JOSE MANUEL (10/5): - Tienen pequeños detalles que te hacen la estancia muy agradable. Como leche, café, azúcar, aceite…
El apartamento está muy bien equipado.
Estaba muy limpio y la decoración era muy bonita
- Ronald (8/5): prima - mooi appartement met prima faciliteiten. de 2 eenpersoonsbedden en er ontbreekt een kast in die kamer
- Aida (9/5): - El apartamento es precioso y cómodo. Para nosotros fue una suerte estar allí los 2 días de vendaval y lluvia muy intensa.
- Kristine (8/5): - Spacious, well equipped, separate beds in other bedroom Nothing
- Siu Wah (8/5): Alright and pricy - Spacious and good kitchen ware Windows cannot be closed at all in bedrooms, very chilly at night even have the heating on. Quite noisy outdoor downstairs an evening
- Andrew (10/5): I'd highly reccomend this place - clean, nice, quiet, and well equipped. - Well-equipped, clean, and really nice unit. The location is central to the town and activities, but quiet. Near the locks - fun to walk along and see the boats. Highly recommend I read the reviews and understood it was on the third floor (also the top floor). I don't mind climbing a staircase (somewhat unkempt by neighbors) with luggage at the start and finish of a visit, but this could be a deterant for some. Top floors are usually quieter without people stomping around above you.
- Saurabh (9/5): Superb -
- Jocelyn (8/5): lovely apartment - great location and views, clean and comfortable apartment. Loved the chairs by the window no room to put open suitcases in bedrooms had to keep them in front room as wasnt goint to fully unpack as on a road trip
- Ramakanetkar (10/5): Exceptional -
- Renee (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious, luxurious and renovated to a high standard (when you have siblings who are kitchen designers and interior designers, then it’s a good thing!).
Has everything you need, and more compared to most places I have stayed in, this is the best one so far. Top quality hand wash, diffusers etc.
Would recommend and return if I’m ever in the area again. None
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jill (8/5): Very good - Great location with wonderful views of Ben Nevis and Neptunes staircase. The Lochy Great local pub nearby. Black Mould in the stairwell. Otherwise in good condition.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Calum (10/5): Exceptional - The accommodation was stunning- best Airbnb style that I’ve ever had!
- Tracey (7/5): Good - Great unit. Shower not hot enough.
- Lauder (8/5): Very good -
- Barker (10/5): Location location. - This is a high-end apartment. The fittings and furnishings are top class. The place was spotlessly clean and tidy. It is also very quiet up on the top floor of the complex. Ali provides instructions just prior to your arrival.
The view towards Ben Nevis Mountain was stunning, particularly in the morning, on a sunny day.
It was also fascinating watching boats go through the loch system beside the apartment.
The pub next door is great for a meal and a few drinks with no worries about having to drive. The two flights of stairs were hard on old knees, but hey, that's my bad luck.
I also advise using the app, what3words to find the place. Google takes you further down the road than necessary. It's not hard to find if you know it's right next to the pub.
- Claire (9/5): Fantastic apartment with a beautiful view - Beautiful apartment set in an ideal location away from Fort William town centre but with easy access. Amazing view of Ben Nevis right from the lounge window when he’s not hiding in the clouds! Done be put off by the outside of the building, once you get inside the apartment is great and has all the facilities you would need. Added bonus is that it has its own reserved parking bay. The only downside was that I hadn’t realised the apartment is on the 3rd floor, I stayed with my elderly mum who has limited mobility but she managed them ok so didn’t negatively impact our stay.
- William (10/5): Well-situated just outside Ft. William - The kitchen was well-appointed. Lovely view. Unit was very clean and airy. The location, about 2 miles outside of Ft. William, was quiet with minimal traffic. Parking is a bit tight.
- Naomi (10/5): Wonderful, relaxing stay. Loved the apartment - Beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, well equipped Nothing
- Carol (8/5): Overall excellent because of the location, decor and facilities. Let down slightly as before - Excellent location, great view of Ben Nevis and the canal from the front windows, very easy walking distance - 3 minutes to Neptune’s staircase - and all the canal walks. Great base to tour further afield such as Glenfinnan, Arisaig and Fort Augustus. Communal entry hallway was rather run down, dusty, water ingress marks on ceiling, quite dangerous stair treads, 3 short flights up, no hallway lighting so had to use camera torches at night, again dangerous for less able people. Bedroom windows very hard to close, had to lift them up and pull the handle after pushing the “press” button. Parking - one space only - quite tight. Would be useful to know where best to put a second car, especially overnight. We used the hotel overflow car park as the public one said no overnight parking.
- Phillip (10/5): Great location overlooking canal and hotel next door convenient for food. Very smart. - Great location overlooking canal and hotel next door convenient for food. Very smart and well equipped.
- Donald (10/5): Fantastic place to stay. Unfortunately we weren’t able to stay longer - The apartment was clean, tidy and well laid out, in a great location.
Fantastic views of Ben Nevis from the main living area. Parking the car in allocated space wasn’t the best
- Stewart (9/5): Superb - Location, serenity Walking up 3 flights of stairs, elderly mother
- Sue (10/5): Wonderful place to stay, so close to the canal and a lovely cafe. - Beautiful apartment, great location . Well equipped too. Lost hot water but management fixed the problem, first with a phone call, then sending an electrician.
- Matthew (6/5): Great apartment, just needs more hot water - Large apartment with great views of Ben Nevis Hot water was difficult to get working, even when it was working it was lukewarm at best. You had to press some buttons to get it working and the wait 40min for it to be hot enough to jump into a shower. Not really acceptable after a day out hiking in the rain and cold.
The door lock was basic and didn’t feel particularly secure.
- David (7/5): Great but cold - Excellent position and lovely flat, well equipped and spacious. Super clean and comfortable The hot water was an issue, we had some cold showers. For some reason it is not on all the time which means you have to plan when you shower. Tricky when you have just climbed Ben Nevis and need one. We did adjust the controls but still not satisfactory. When you are there for a short time you shouldn’t need to do that. Please sort for future tennants
- Graham (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stuart (10/5): Exceptional -

- Jonathan (10/5): Excellent - Everything Nothing
- Rankin (8/5): Very good - Stairwell up to the apartment could do with a little tlc, but the apartment itself is superb.
- Christopher (8/5): Lovely’s clean modern apartment but shabby outside - Apartment inside was lovely, modern, clean and well equipped Exterior was very shabby, only one light working in the staircase and it’s a top floor flat, some windows need replacing as they have got condensation in them and we’re very hard to close. Also the parking space is awkward as it’s right in the corner and difficult to get into if another car was in the bay next to it
- Thomas (9/5): Superb -
- George (9/5): The apartment suited our needs as I had a business appointment in the area - Apartment suited our needs

- Rankin (8/5): Very good -
- Zoe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sandra (10/5): Perfect place to stay, we loved it and we are definitely coming back - Beautifully furnished, everything was perfectly matched. View was amazing. Such a cosy apartment Nothing at all
- Paul (8/5): Good accommodation, clean and comfortable and good value for money. - The property was well located on a beautiful canal. It was very well kitted out and very comfortable. We were only there 2 days so did not need to use the washing machine or dishwasher. It was impressive that these items were there however . The property was very clean and comfortable, a home away from home. The only thing I didn’t like was the entrance and stairway. As soon as we walked in my heart dropped. It was dark and dingy , smelt funny and had mould growing on the ceiling . I wondered what we’d let ourselves in for . The light outside our apartment didn’t work either.
- Barbara (10/5): Exceptional -
- Keeley (9/5): Superb -
- Kathy (10/5): I loved the decor and would suggest others to rent - Very tastefully decorated. Very detailed in equipping the apartment. They seemed to think of everything you might need. The bed was comfortable and great pillows I should have asked what floor we would be on! Being 74, the trek up the stairs with luggage was hard.
- Adam (9/5): Superb -
- Mark (9/5): Clean and spacious property with fantastic views looking over to Ben Nevis! - Views from living area window. Could have been more information in the house information folder.
- Matthew (10/5): Exceptional -
- N (10/5): Exceptional -
- Naresh (10/5): Exceptional - Everything Nothing
- Tracey (8/5): Very nice spot, lovely view, excellent quality fixtures and fittings, very comfortable apartment - Quality of the apartment and the fixtures and fittings - but this was expected given the cost of the apartment The hairdryer cuts in and out on use - needs to be looked at
The dinner plates are too large to fit in the dishwasher - we ended up washing everything up as it would have been wasteful to out everything else in the dishwasher and wash up
