You get what you pay for stay wise..breakfast was better than I expected for the price. Ideal if not fussed on luxury and just a base for the night. Breakfast waitress was very nice and helpful. Slightly out of range to walk to town centre but fine with transport

A tired cheap as chips
A tired example in need of some update. Yes. It's cheap as chips so I guess you get what you pay for It is what it is. And I didn't really expect much more. But the lift was broken. Still. Apparently. And we were put on the top floor of a near empty hotel. The bed was badly broken and who on earth does the maintenance? Mr Magoo could do better with a tube of silicone in the bathroom. Only one double socket so you are constantly changing what's in what. Kettle, TV, chargers etc

Very good value
I needed an overnight stay in Fort William after a late drive up from Glasgow. The Caledonia Hotel was very reasonably priced , check in was efficient and the room spotlessly clean. Breakfast was really good (cereal, then full cooked then pastries) though a decent cup of coffee would’ve been nice. I’d definitely stay here again if I needed an overnight stop.

Sad
My stay at this hotel was a bit off this time, the shower in yhe room was not clean, shoer door has some scum from other people showering. Thus has never happened before in this hotel. I like going to this hotel, staff and area are good. Room comfortable, and fresh when you arrive. I am sad to give a bad review.
