My stay at the Old Pine Hotel was nothing short of magical, and the highlight was undoubtedly the breakfast experience coupled with the breath-taking scenery. Waking up to the serene sound of nature and stepping into the cozy breakfast area felt like a dream. The breakfast spread was delightful, with a variety of fruits, coffee, and fresh juice.
What truly set the experience apart, however, was the view. The dining area offers panoramic vistas of lush pine forests and misty mountains, creating a peaceful and rejuvenating ambiance. Sipping my morning coffee while watching the sunrise over the hills was an unforgettable moment. The staff were warm and attentive, adding to the overall charm of the place.
If you're looking for a serene getaway with fantastic food and views that will leave you in awe, the Old Pine Hotel is the perfect destination. Highly recommended!

Booked through booking.com last minute & got last room - very easy to book, made to feel welcome.
Although relatively expensive - going rate for that location.
No complaints.

Claimed Ben Nevis with my daughter. Fantastic views and weather though a bit icy and snowy at the top. I wish they would keep dogs off the mountain as some very irresponsible owners made it unsafe for others.

pricey to get the cart up and really disappointing to see how aged the carts are and dirty. Lack of information for visitors and staff just stand around chatting - whoever runs it needs to be replaced tomorrow!

You can view and photograph Ben Nevis from Corpach, which is a train-stop away, or 3 miles by road. You may have to return a day or two later, because the peak is often covered in low-cloud and mist. After 12 noon is the best time, because of the position of the sun. You can also see the Jacobite Steam Train at Corpach & Fort William. To ride on it you need to book up the previous October. I didn’t climb Ben Nevis because the view is only clear 1 day in 12, but good luck if you go for it!!

Stunning to look at.
Stunning to look at. The start of climbing it is 2 miles from the centre. Take good walking gear for sun rain and snow. The cloud comes down fast with rain then leaves and it’s sunny. Good walking boots.

Beatiful views of the mountain from Fort William and climbing possible most of the year. There is a Ski Lift which operates in good weather and gives access to get nearer to the top of the mountain without climbing. This was not possible when we stayed in April as the weather, although not that cold was damp and very misty. There are lots of local distilleries to visit if you enjoy whisky. The city is small and has nice restuarants. Loval hotels get booked up very quickly so book early in the year to avoid disappointment.

if travelling when hot (like we did) take extra water and food supplies. The trek up and down is very hard and very tiring. I had cramps an hour from the summit, So my advice is to train and get fitter before attempting to climb. Definitely need good walking shoes and comfortable clothing. Took us 8hrs and 30mins. set off early so that you can come back in good light. good luck

Roy Bridge Hotel was a great place for us to recharge the batteries before hiking Ben Nevis. The hotel is located just a few minutes ride from the Parking in Fort William so we could start early. The host has been really nice and welcomed us speaking with the Scottish accent. The apartment was very comfortable. We loved it!
Wonderful location and exceptional staff. I was in Fort William to climb Ben Nevis and fund raise for MacMillan Cancer Care. Vanessa, Rose Ann and the rest of the team looked after me so well and made me feel at home. Customer service is at the core of what they do best. Deepak, the hotel manager and team even surprised me with a wine bottle and a lovely note. I would love to revisit someday soon.
The staff we polite and always willing to help and had excellent knowledge of not just the hotel but of directions around town and to and around Ben Nevis.
The view from the restaurant is great.
Location excellent for a 20 minute walk into town. Hotel was very close to a retail park and on the bus route N41 to the Nevis Range gondola , the main reason for my stay . The hotel was in walking distance for Ben Nevis . I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful.
- The location was great for easy access to the Ben Nevis area.
- The hosts Allan and Christine are such lovely people. They had prepared wine and cheeses et biscuits for us as a welcoming gift, which was much appreciated.
- There is a lovely hotel restaurant offering nice food and drinks 5 mins walk from the house.
Perfect apartment. Super clean when we arrived and beautifully decorated. It even has a beautiful view of Ben Nevis from the front window! They left a little basket of goodies too including a bottle of wine!
Apartments were clean and tidy. Staffs were helpful whenever we contacted them. Ben Nevis parking is 7min drive from this location. Can go for a walk in the evening really lovely view. Enjoyed our stay.
Room nice and clean, beds comfortable, great view of Ben Nevis from our window. We had the breakfast on the Sunday of our stay which was great with lots of options. Hostel kitchen well kitted out and everything was well labelled for ease of use of the facilities. Nice lounge and plenty of key info visitors will need on display. Chap on reception was polite and helpful on every interaction. Plenty of showers to use which are shared between all the visitors - never any issue finding one to use when we needed it.
I wanted to climb up to ben Nevis, the youth hostel was best location.
room ,toilet ,kitchen all of them clean and comfortable.

Check with the visitors centre at the base of Ben Nevis what conditions are like, start walking if suitable weather and ask walkers on their return from the mountain of their experience, and remember weather can change at any time during the day for the better or worse, lucky for me it was for the better.

I have been to Fort William twice around the same time of year which was at end of April / early May, it has been great conditions for walking up Ben Nevis both times. Starting at the tourist info centre car park it has been a very busy route both times but well worth the effort at the top. The first accent was into a blizzard at around 900m upwards but the second time was crystal clear Stunning and snow capped. For the last 20 mins to the top it was very very cold ( -5 plus another -5 wind chill) but back at the bottom it was around 14'C so don't be fooled. enjoy!

If going up Ben Nevis must have correct clothing and footwear and have a reasonable level of fitness as climb and descent can be gruelling for the first time climber . Would not attempt in winter without a professional guide. We began our climb from the Ben Nevis Inn which is a good place to start your climb particularly if it's your first experience of a mountain climb.
