We had a truly wonderful stay! Our hosts (attentive, informative and welcoming) have a beautifully decorated and well maintained property. Clean, comfortable, lovely, safe and with a breathtaking view of the water. The parking is close and convenient and the location is just 5 minutes walking distance away from Fort William shopping, restaurants and cafes. The location is also ideal for traveling to some incredible spots in the highlands. Parking is close and convenient. A great place to stay. Included breakfast is from 8-9 a.m. Loved our stay!

Beautiful room with a view over the loch. Great bathroom with shower and claw-foot bath. This stay was a touch of luxury in so many ways.
The hosts were fabulous. I was travelling with my mum and Trevor responded to questions fast and in detail, providing a ground floor room on request and info about taxis and eating places. A great place to know about and we will definitely return.

After a long travel day arriving at Glentower to a warm welcome from Graham was a highlight. An absolutely beautiful property, spacious and comfortable rooms, charming host, a view of the lough, easy walk to town. A perfect stay

Trevor greeted us at the front door with a smile, even though we had a late check in. Our room was very comfortable with great views out over the water. Had a hearty breakfast every morning served by very friendly staff. We left before breakfast on our last day. Trevor made us a bag lunch for our trip. Glentower was a great choice.

We had a 2 night stay at the Glentower B&B last weekend. The accommodation was brilliant and the owner Catriona was very welcoming. Amenities were perfect and as expected and during this period of covid 19 the cleanliness was of a very high standard which made us feel completely safe. Perfect location for walking into the town. Would highly recommend a stay here

The room was immaculate with a lot of attention to details. Special mention to the bathroom which has a superb shower cubicle and fantastic toiletries. The cooked breakfast was very good, and staff full of attention. The property location is also very good with a number of good restaurants within walking distance, and the pedestrian street nearby. I would definitely consider staying there again next time I am up in Fort William.
