Enjoyable trip, very good price, The room was slightly tired but for the price was really good although if staying for a holiday longer period would upgrade my room. A clean and nice hotel and would definitely recommend. Furthermore in a great location in Fort William with parking and easily accessible.

The hotel caters exclusively to bus loads of elderly tourists. If you aren't on one of those tours, you're an afterthought. Not recommended for those young enough to still touch their toes or walk unassisted.

They placed me in a room directly over the bar where a live band was playing and I could hear actual conversations as well as the loud booming music. The walls are so thin. The bed was nice, staff were friendly.

It is worth noting that we had mobility issues, requiring a walker, and the Alexandra provided a wonderful accommodation to meet our needs. The room (in particular the bathroom, with grab bars and a roll-in shower), the lobby, the dining areas, and the hotel in general were all easily accessible (despite the the hotel apparently having been built long before these things were considered important). The minor exceptions were that the room was a long ways from the elevator, with a couple of doors that were a tad awkward to open, and the hotel entrance with a ramp, i.e no steps, was around the side and through the restaurant. Minor, but worth noting. The hotel was an easy walk to downtown Fort William, and easily accessible to the train station and grocery store. The room was comfortable, and large enough to move around in easily. Dinner was wonderful and charming, and the provided breakfast had a large selection of foods in a well conceived dining area (we were able to get in, get our food, and put the walker so it was out of the way). Parking initially seemed a bit of an issue, but the staff actually guided us to park right by the front door. Regardless of whether it was an “official” parking space, they gave their blessing to leave the car there. We would happily recommend the Alexandra to any one visiting the area, including folks with mobility issues.

The bar area was very uninviting. No one was allowed to check in until 3. When that arrived it was very busy as everyone was waiting in the foyer.

Very good choice at breakfast. Room very basic paper pealing of ceiling and too warm and stuffy with unpleasant view. A bit of a maze with floorboards on corridors slack and noisy and corridors very warm and stuffy. I can only comment on my room as I’m sure there will be much better quality of rooms than mine hopefully. I thought for the quality of my room and hotel in general it was not value for money and vastly overpriced. To say it was dated would be an understatement. Would not return. Sorry

Location wise this hotel is in a good location. However, one of the rooms we booked had a broken window due to which the room was very cold and there was no heater/working radiator. When we mentioned that to the receptionist, they didn't even apologise instead they said why didn't you tell us before? They were supposed to prepare the room and ensure it was suitable for guests. They also didn't replace the dirty towel. Hence, not a good experience.
