The bed was exceptionally comfortable, and the room itself was superior. The staff was pleasant and polite, everything was very clean. This hotel was set in a very central area near to shops and the centre. Great place for exploring Oban.

We had a just perfect time. We enjoyed amazing staff and location. Magnificent view of sea. It was nice to have free tea in the lobby.

Well, the area was scary overall.

Perfect 10/10 3-star experience. The classic queen room was absolutely perfect, comfy bed. The location was lovely, within walking distance of st columba's cathedral. Meals in an attached restaurant were SUPERB.

We liked hotel's views and location. Situated in a shopping area. Also, we could visit dunollie castle, it was 10 minutes' drive away. We were lucky enough to get family room for good prices. Would recommend for short stay;))

Our favourite hotel in Oban, staff was friendly! A flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a sitting area and a writing table were available in our classic single room.

The street was usually noisy.

Oban distillery was placed in direct proximity. We enjoyed royal. Squeeze, set within 5 minutes' walk, was the best for dining.
