Fort William Backpackers

It’s probably one of the nicest and quietest hostels I’ve stayed in. Hopefully it stays like that throughout the summer. The toilets could do with a bit of improvement Great and super peaceful location!

Stayed in a 4-bed mixed dorm with an ensuite bathroom with the hostel being a 6-8 minute walk from the train station. The bed was comfortable, the room clean and the power outlets sufficient for charging electronics. Breakfast was available for an extra fee and the kitchen was open for all guests to use, with plenty of fridge space available. Check-in and check-out were smooth and straightforward. The only downside was the location of my room—it was right next to the kitchen. A few volunteers and guests tended to gather there late at night, sometimes talking past 10pm, which made it a bit noisy when trying to sleep. Otherwise, a great stay in Fort William.

It is a hostel set in an historic house. The staircase is beautiful. Daniel was an excellent host, so cordial and accommodating. He is such a professional. I don't think much would ruffle his feathers. We enjoyed staying there and meeting so many interesting people. Breakfast was just enough - a nice assortment of cereals, juices, and tea and coffee.
