My boyfriend and I loved staying at the Moorings hotel. It is in a beautiful location right next to Neptune's staircase. There are many lovely nature trails within easy walking distance and it is just a short drive into Fort William town centre. Check in was easy and the lady was very friendly and promptly booked a table for us... more

Stayed here over the weekend and had the most fabulous meal i think i've ever had!! The hotel has a 4 star rating but doesn't look much when you see it. I think the reason it has this review is the food - it's absolutely amazing. Didn't try the bar meals but if you are booking you MUST book dinner... more

We booked this hotel at the last minute using laterooms.com. The hotel is fine and is nicely situated at Neptune's Steps but it really could do with a refurb. We stayed in a Superior Room which was freshly decorated and very spacious, the bathroom was huge. Superior rooms are in the newly upgraded part of the hotel and are well... more

We have stayed at this hotel on several occasions and found it to be a 'little cracker'. Breakfast is good but if you dine in the restaurant at night it is truely a treat. The hotel is just a Neptune's staircase and you can walk along the canal for miles (we have done this is loads of times and cycled... more

I would like to thank the staff of the Moorings Hotel hugely for the whole experience on the occasion of our daughter 'and son-in-law's wedding reception. From the initial contact a year before the wedding right through to the event we were always treated most courteously, and the little extra requests which made the day special were always taken on... more

Attended wedding, advised that rate would be 80 Pounds Sterling. However when we checked out we were advised that the rate was 150 pounds as we "were in a Superior Room" and not a Standard Room ! It would have been nice if we had been advised at check in. Attitude of receptionists and management was unbelievable, no apology just... more

Management response from
neptuneFortWilliam, Manager

Through our countless meetings /conversations with the Wedding organiser, she was advised that on account of the day chosen for her wedding falling on a bank holiday weekend, there would only be a set number of rooms available on our greatly reduced wedding rate. The organiser was also well informed that there would be no discounts made on our superior...

We stayed at the moorings for one night on the way to gairloch. It was in August this year but by skimming recent reviews I wonder if I missed something? I found the hotel bland and average at best. The bar was quite small and seemed that you were 'packed in', we payed cash for the drinks and found we... more

Used the meeting room facilities at this hotel on 3 October. Fantastic large room with beautiful views and first class staff. Nothing was too much trouble and would definitely recommend using this hotel. In fact, we wish we had stayed there too! more
