We had a lovely time at Hillview Guest House. It’s right across from the Loch and has the most gorgeous views. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a great breakfast offering and gracious hosts. Will come back if we get the chance.

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.

Ginger

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.
