Had stayed here before on at least three occasions, had always found it warm, friendly and comfortable. With that in mind, was confident booking again. HOWEVER, it is under different ownership, the rather grandly, if misleading name of MGM Mutha group being the owners. Stayed one night only, beginning of June. On arrival in the mid afternoon, had to wait for some considerable time for staff to respond to reception bell. In reception, can't help but notice a sizable portrait of MGM Mutha founder, Chevalier Dr Mutha resplendent in expensive designer sunglasses, and placed around it, many copies of his book, no doubt extolling his successes.I would have to say the way of running West End Hotel would not feature in a chapter regarding success. The reception area didn't feel overly warm but not freezing, but on opening the door to the sizable bar area (bar was closed) to see if staff were in there after waiting some considerable time at reception , it was akin to opening a fridge door, completely cold feeling, no residual heat even remaining from whenever bar was last open (and heated). Allocated twin room per booking, en route noticed paintwork etc in corridors v tired looking. Room 17 very cold but as I was heading out for afternoon, assumed that perhaps heating was on a timer and would be warmed later. However, not the case, on arrival back, room as cold as earlier and radiator thermostatic valve did not work. As an aside, I generally don't feel cold, but wakened at least 4 times through the night feeling cold. Bed linen (sheets, pilliwcases) was definitely clean and laundered, but only only one thin blanket in addition to the sheets. The shaped decorative bedding top cover that one would normally discard while sleeping as you're never certain they're changed every service had to be used to try get warm. The tea tray showed signs of only a quick clean, one teaspoon missed cleaning altogether and torn-off part of sugar sachet evident on tray from previous guest. Peeling paintwork in the tired shower room/WC and mismatched towels indicate that less attention to detail, running maintenance is achieved under current ownership. So in perspective, while not in anyway a completely disastrous or dangerous stay, it was not great, not comfortable and certainly not what I'd experienced there before and I would not book here again in the near future. Especially given the plethora of accommodation available in the area with comparable, if not in some cases, cheaper, room only rates.

I ate here with 6 friends, the restaurant was really busy, but service was quick. The food was of a high standard, and no one had a meal they didn't enjoy. The puds looked lovely as well.

Overpriced food with little to recommend it. I have had worse but certainly wouldn't bother returning. It's ok if you really have no alternatives but try elsewhere

We ended up here as we were very hungry and this restaurant had a good rating in tripadvisor. Considering that, we were a little dissapointed, although the service was very very friendly and helpful, but the food was not what we expected. One was a little tasteless and the meat was not the best quality (tough).

Our unique location just outside Fort William at the very foot of Ben Nevis is THE place for great food, real ale, live music and bunkhouse accommodation. Popular with walkers, mountaineers and locals alike, the Ben Nevis Inn is found at the start of the
This place is a God send if you have just descended Ben Nevis.Terrific food served to hungry patrons on shared tables. We arrived after dark, from a tricky descent and managed to secure a table. Booking ahead is recommended. The chicken and haggis rumbledethumps are delicious. Lovely staff and good food.

My brother and I came to eat our first hot meal in Scotland at the Hotel Restaurant. The food was fine but immediately the atmosphere was strange. The manager (maybe owner) made several off-color jokes to us and we felt uncomfortable. He seemed upset. The restaurant was almost empty save for a few patrons drinking quietly. When we finished, we asked to pay our bill. After 25 minutes of waiting, we got up and went to the bar. Twice we asked to pay our bill, very quietly and politely. Both times we were ignored. The manager interacted with us several times, but always making odd jokes that were uncomfortable for us. Finally, my brother got up and went to ask to pay a bit more firmly. The manager made a sexual innuendo concerning our desire to leave. Like "oh you are wanting to get back to your b and b for some ..." My brother was mortified. He explained that we were brother and sister. The manager made another odd remark, but finally (after nearly an hour of us waiting) let us pay the bill. We walked back to our bnb in complete shock. Probably the worst dining experience of our lives. Both my brother and I have previous experience working as servers in restaurants and just could not believe what we had just been through. Do NOT eat here.

Relaxed lochside dining over looking the pap of Glencoe and the small islands of Loch Leven. Our menus is built around local produce and you'll find as much care goes into our infamous doorstop sandwiches as a dish of freshly landed langoustine.
What a wonderful surprise, after days of tiny hotels and nondescript breakfasts, and in a stunning location! A large clean modern room with plenty of space to unpack and repack, a large lounge area with a lake view for a predinner drink, a very lovely hotel dinner and excellent hotel breakfast the next day. And who knew I would like haggis? An option at the buffet breakfast. All staff went above and beyond to be friendly and helpful. Definitely consider this spot as you tour the Glencoe/Ft William area.

We walked over from a nearby B&B a couple of times and were welcomed without a reservation. The dining room is attractively decorated and has a log fireplace. The staff is young, friendly, and competent. Both times we ate here the food was of good quality, well-prepared and (what I like best) piping hot!

After being turned away from a busy restaurant in Glencoe village we were delighted to find a table at The Laroch. The food and service were excellent but unfortunately we were charged for a bottle of red wine instead of a glass. We didn't notice this till the next day and this was obviously our own fault but I emailed the restaurant about this a couple of days later giving them the full details of our meal and names of our servers but have not received the courtesy of a reply which is disappointing.Hi there. Delighted you enjoyed your meal with us, but really sorry you were overcharged for your wine. We are actually away on holiday at the moment, and so our emails arenât being monitored as they normally would be. We will be back home in a couple of days and will make sure you are refunded for the mistake. Kind regardsEileen
