The hotel has a great location on the seafront with spectacular views. It is close to restaurants & bars all within a short walking distance. The hotel is clean & is tastefully decorated. The staff are always helpful & friendly. Breakfast has a good choice of good to suit all dietary requirements & is presented well. I would definitely choose to stay here again the next time I'm in Oban!

Lovely older hotel
Lovely staff at this older hotel not as near to ferries as site advises but definitely walkable without luggage in tow! Room was chronically cold and shower in room difficult to use. Pool was great as was steam room. Dining on site was good. We would return.

Poor menu. No staff on bar - covered by reception staff. Coffee lukewarm from bar. Some tables in dining area nicely set up with tablecloths and cutlery. Others plain. No reason given. Hot plate warmers not on for breakfast and plates cold. Rooms nice extras like water shortbread mints hot chocolate.

Caution staying in ‘annexe’
Stayed in ‘annexe’ as family room out back of hotel. Moved room due to mattress having broken springs. Rooms are tired but clean. Views are of car park, container, sofa dumped outside and coach parking. Service in restaurant was diabolical. 2 staff were trying to do everything and one didn’t have a clue what they were doing. Tables left uncleared and food came out slowly. Quality of evening food not good - pasta dish for main course was inedible. Ate out second night even though dinner was included in rate.

Pleasant stay
Spacious, room, comfortable bed. Everything about the stay was good, however the hotel appeared short-staffed, with staff having to cover different roles simultaneously. However they were always pleasant and courteous despite this difficulty for them.

Indian kitchy, shabby chic. Gold tableware, dated decor. Fantastic room with enclosed suite overlooking the harbor. Nice steam room and large pool. Friendly staff (when you can find them). Place was kind of deserted and understaffed. No matter--it is a great deal in a great location with everything one needs.

A Good Oban Stay!
I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The hotel staff were very accommodating when I asked for wakeup calls & to increase the heat in my room. I used the pool & steam room & this is a plus. The hotel is a bit further away from the train station, but is closer to the Dunollie Castle!

If you require dinner there are no convenient times for reservations unless you’re in a “group “. Yes, there are plenty of pubs, but it’s expensive. The shower is low pressure. The staff are sweet, but their collective answer is we have a group, so we can’t take care of you. Oh, there’s Pringles chips in the bar:/pittiful.
