We arrived in Oban and followed out sat nav instructions. We found it initially a little tricky to find but after a couple of loops around the block we came across it (the front of the hotel is a steak house). We appreciated the onsite free parking. It actually is in a fantastic location just a short walk to the... More

Great location, easy walking distance to the Harbour. Nice, comfortable, large, modern room with wooden floors. Clean and tidy. Bit noisy from the street at night but not a real issue. Shower (no pressure) is a real disaster but they are aware of that. Parking can be a bit of a problem. One of the best rooms during a Scottish... More

Stayed here on a Friday night. The room was overall clean. Was small. Window was broken and we couldn't fully close it. As we were at front of the hotel it was a fairly noisy overnight. The dinner was nice enough. The breakfast was nicely cooked but the cereal , juice was fair with little choice. Had to make own... More

The hotel and rooms were first class, very clean and nicely decorated. The approach to the hotel from the car park at the back was unpleasant. The smell from the resturant kitchen extractor fan was geasy and made me feel quite sick. Our room was at the back so we had the smell of cooking rising to our room constantly.... More

On arrival I was very dubious about the hotel as form the outside frankly it looks terribly. When were allowed to our room it was beautiful. Very modern and clean, the floors are all laminate and the decor minimalist and stylish. Breakfast was lovely. Simple but effective. The staff were fabulous, couldn't do enough to help. The hotel is very... More

Stayed in this hotel a few years ago and it was a bit `tired` but convenient having its own free parking lot and it is only a couple of minutes from the main shopping area and seafront. Arrived early but were allowed to get into our room - just as well because it was pouring outside. To our surprise and... More

The reception was very friendly and we were given the keys to our rooms. My wife and I on the first floor, Our two teenage kids on... More

Rooms were very clean and well-serviced. Staff were all very helpful providing early breakfasts, packed lunches and taxis as needed. Bathroom was refurbished and towels replaced each day. No lifts available but only two flights up. Evening meal was good value especially if you took the early bird menu. WiFi signal was very variable in the bedroom and not all... More

Stayed over one night in Oban on return to Glasgow, and very glad I did. Altho I knew there was no lift here, staff was immediately ready to carry my bags up, and bring them down next morning. Room was clean, fresh, well ventilated, quiet, all amenities (except room phone! but didn't really need that) and best ginger shortbread ever... More
