Fab wee hotel with onsight parking. Room was spotless. Tea and coffee making facilities with bottled water and biscuits replenished every day. Fresh towels every day and housekeeping staff were so helpful and chatty. Hotel is situated on main road into Oban town centre. They have a beautiful bar area which is very quiet and would benefit from offering evening meal. Overall a wonderful stay. This is our fourth stay here and will most definitely be returning.

10/10 Exceptional

The room was immaculate, felt recently renovated and quite current. It was to the rear of the hotel and very quiet even though the hotel sits on the main road through Oban. Bed, firm but comfortable, no problems there. The Nespresso coffee machine is a very nice addition too. The shower is a waterfall type and absolutely perfect. Can't comment on the bar or breakfast as we didn't use either.
