Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a great view across Oban harbour and town, and the staff is incredibly helpful. The rooms are warm, comfortable, and exactly as expected. However, there was an issue with the TV. The location is excellent for exploring Oban and beyond, but parking can be challenging. The dining experience was delightful with freshly made options, yet there were some drawbacks. The service was friendly and accommodating while being aware of potential refurbishments.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were stunning with great facilities, but they felt a bit small for the price. The service was lovely and helpful, although there was some confusion about an offer. The location was perfect for exploring Oban, but noise from outside disturbed my sleep. The dining experience was good but could have offered more variety. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The location was just perfect, with stunning views over the harbor and the rooms were very warm at the front of the hotel overlooking the harbor, providing a magical view of Mull. The service was exceptional, with Greig and the team at the reception desk being incredibly friendly and helpful. The dining experience was the best I've had in years, especially enjoying the scrumptious breakfast. However, the parking situation was a bit of a letdown as there wasn't a facility to park the car right at the hotel.
The hotel's location is perfect, situated right in the heart of the beautiful seaside town of Oban on the west coast of Scotland. The rooms, although well-maintained, lack adequate lighting and security features. The service was a mix of unhelpful and professional moments, with lovely furnishings adding warmth to the atmosphere. The dining experience had its ups and downs with good options but cold servings at times.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were of a very high standard with the most comfortable bed, but they were a lot smaller than expected for the price. The service was a bit inconsistent, with some staff being very sharp when we asked for a nightcap late at night, while others were professional and pleasant. The location was ideal for exploring Oban, but the nightlife noise and room size next to service areas were drawbacks. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some disappointing aspects and some amazing quality dishes. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms had gorgeous views over the harbor front and were a great size, and any minor issues were quickly sorted out by the efficient hotel manager and staff. The only downside was the noise at night from people leaving pubs nearby.
