The Hillview Guesthouse was a fantastic place to stay. Jane was very gracious and extremely helpful in adjusting breakfast hours to 8 am from 8:30, and had really good recommendations for pubs and restaurants in Ft. William. The rooms were very, very clean and had a scenic view. The continental breakfast was good with fresh food and coffee. I'd highly recommend staying at the Hillview Guesthouse!

A excellent guest house

Hillview is an excellent guest house along the road leading to Fort William.
The room was fine and recently decorated. It is modern and very clean. The bathroom has every thing you need and it is clean and fresh.
You can park your car right outside the house,
The views over Loch Linnhe are magnificent.
It is very easy to drive to Fort William (about 4 minutes)
Breakfast is vey nice (not a fry up which was most welcome!)
The owners are very friendly and helpful.

The en suite bathroom is quite literally in the room. The toilet is in a small closet that looks into the clear glass shower. The clear glass shower is directly into the bedroom - so there was no privacy using the toilet or the shower. The shower was the size of an RV shower and had two temperatures- scalding or freezing. It was miserable.

The view from the front bedroom was spectacular.

Despite a note saying that later check in could be arranged the owner insisted 9 pm was the latest so other guests weren’t disturbed. When I explained that wouldn’t work she said she could not cancel the reservation. So we changed our plans to get there in time. Check in took two minutes and nothing we did would have disturbed anyone.

Breakfast was adequate.

We stayed here having driven up from Devon for the 3 peaks challenge. It was a 10/10 stay. Jane was soooo helpful and accommodating.
The hotel is opposite the most beautiful stretch of water and Ben Nevis is a 10 minute drive up the road. We had a joining room with a shared bathroom between us and it worked perfectly. We were up and out so early the following morning, however, Jane packed us off on our adventure with an on-the-go breakfast- such a lovely touch. Beautiful guest house, great hosts, amazing views! What more could you ask for! We will be back!

Our rooms (a family suite) were super clean and very modern. Would definitely visit again. One tip, if you are walking back after dark from Fort William take a torch the street lights only go so far and it is very dark! Using our phones as a torch helped but a proper torch would have been easier!

Just a few minutes drive from the centre of Fort William, with amazing views across the loch, Hillview was a perfect base for my daughter and I to explore the west highlands for a few days. We received a friendly welcome, the rooms are clean and adequately furnished. Breakfast is pre ordered the night before (if you want anything cooked) with fruit, cereals and toast, and is great.
In summary, Hillview is a small, friendly place to stopover and explore this amazing part of Scotland. Recommended.

Couldn’t ask for more

Firstly the location of the property is beautiful, views onto to loch and mountain scenery are something else. Even better you get these views from the rooms and in the breakfast room. The rest of the house is wonderfully clean and tidy and filled with fresh flowers.
The spacious bedrooms are decorated beautifully and have a real homely touch to them. You have all you need in the room, from hot drinks, usb points, shampoo/conditioner, television, hairdryer and fluffy white towels.
The breakfast was fantastically made which include hot foods, as well as a help yourself to cereals, juices, pastry’s etc. The breakfast tables were set and decorated with little fresh flowers for an extra touch.
Last but not least Jane and Joe, a wonderful couple who couldn’t do enough for us. It is very obvious how much care and and how much detail they put into their guesthouse. I wouldn’t recommend anyone or anywhere else! Thank you
And don’t forget to book direct!

Quaint B&B, small cozy rooms. We stayed in room 6 which had great view over loch, but a very small en suite with toilet quite close to bed and shower opening into the room which was a quirky layout that may not be for all. Basic amenities. Biggest disappointment was the breakfast. We had bacon amd pancakes and was really poor. Tastless and dry. The other options didn't lool to appetising either. So we skipped breakfast for the remaining days. A shsme considering the price paid for the rooms.

Check out was at 10am which seems to be the standard for most b and bs but would be great if it was just an hour later and breakfast was available a bit later (more of a general B and B feedback than specific to this one!).
