Lovely two night stay at Glentower. Location is perfect - just 3 minutes walk to the town. Character building, comfortable rooms, charming smiley host, Trevor. Rooms were beautifully clean. Ours had a lovely seating area with loch view. Breakfast was excellent. I’ve given four stars, rather than five, because I had hoped for a nice bathroom with bath, but had a tiny shower room with noisy fan.

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.

I can’t say enough good things about this lovely b and b. From our beautiful room facing the loch to the wonderful breakfasts it was our favorite stay on our trip! Convenient to and in walking distance of the main street shops made it a great location. There was so much to see and do that we could have stayed longer. Our bedroom plus sitting area was so comfortable after a long day of sightseeing. Breakfast consists of cold buffet plus your choice of hot dishes. Quiet location even though it was on the main road. Host was very helpful with ideas for things to do. Highly recommend this lovely spot.

Perfect location opposite the Loch & only a short walk to the high Street. From welcome to goodbye we could not fault our stay. The room was spacious, bathroom clean with a bath & hot water. WiFi worked well. Breakfast & the staff were pleasant & very efficient. car parking was also provided.

A great location, close to the town centre and within easy driving distance of many beautiful, scenic places. There was a great choice at breakfast and definitely plentiful enough to keep you going for a large part of the day. Gorgeous, local toiletries got your day off to a luxurious start.

This was the most enjoyable stay we have had in a long time. The accommodations were great as were the innkeepers. We couldn’t have been more impressed. The room was clean and comfortable. We were also introduced to The Highland Soap Company, which has the most bewitching smells. Thanks for the memories.

The room, the view and the breakfast were spectacular. Trevor and his wife were great hosts and gave us several ideas on where to go for food and attractions. Ft. Williams is a good base camp for exploring for 3-4 days.
