When is the best time to go to Fort William?

While Fort William is a year-round destination, the best time to visit is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its warmest and most pleasant. During these months, you can expect average daytime temperatures ranging from 15°C to 25°C, great for outdoor activities. The long daylight hours, with the sun often setting after 9 PM, give you ample time to explore the stunning natural landscapes, including hiking trails and the scenic coastline. It's an ideal time for families looking to enjoy the great outdoors without the chill of other seasons. For those interested in whale watching, July and August are particularly good, as these are peak months for spotting various whale species in the waters around Fort William. Boat tours are readily available during this period, offering a chance to see these magnificent creatures up close. If you are a solo traveller seeking a quieter experience with fewer crowds and don't mind cooler temperatures, late spring (May) or early autumn (September to early October) can also be good options. The landscapes are still beautiful, and accommodation prices might be slightly lower.

If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our ‘Fully refundable property’ filter during your search to find the right Fort William hotel for you.

Jag Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent boutique hotel with a music themes. It's a kind of hotel you expect to see in NYC, but it's St John's. Enjoy this hotel it's perfect"

The Murray Premises Hotel

8/10 Good

"Personnel courtois, professionnel. Le service aux chambres est ordinaire. Nous sommes restés trois nuits et le ménage de la chambre était moyen. Le déjeuner est aussi ordinaire (muffin, gruau, yogourt, café thé). Ce qui est bien c'est l'emplacement. En plein centre-ville et le stationnement est gratuit. Je le recommande."

Delta Hotels by Marriott St. John's Conference Centre

8/10 Good

"The Delta is a decent hotel to stay in in St John's. It's a little bit dated but the room was clean and comfortable. The pool needs an update and the showers had an issue with running cold. I also think the hotel could include shampoo and conditioner in the showers in the change rooms for the pool and gym. The breakfast buffet seams pricey at $30 however there was a really good variety and I think it's good value for the money. The location of this hotel is really convenient as well."
