The location in an old historic house facing the water is fantastic. We ate at the "bar" and had breakfast each morning. The food was excellent. The room, while tight, was comfortable and more than met our needs.

Climbing the stairs to get to the room was difficult for my mobility-impaired spouse. There are no guest rooms on the first floor. There was no cover to unload bags in the rain (which it did), and we got soaked rolling the bags from the parking lot in the back of the hotel to the entrance in the front. Then had to drag them up several stone stairs with no easy-to-get-to handrail.

The location was great, right on the waterfront and within walking distance of the centre. The staff were amazing, so nice, helpful, chatty and couldnt have done more. The hotel was booked last minute (within a few hours notice) but was so quiet.. loved the billiard room and the porch for quiet chilling areas. The hotel was very reasonable and they also accepted my two dogs without extra charge. I booked a single room, and was delighted to see a small double for that extra space.

The hotel is quite dated and run down. But the good out weighs this when you’re busy out all day, and just need a place to have a glass of wine before a good sleep.

I liked how the hotel was situated right in front of Oban Harbor so the guests can watch the Paddle Steamer Waverley, other ships and Caledonian MacBrayne ferries coming and going every day. This is especially good when other guests join you for a drink and a good night's conversation about a category we all have an interest in.

I felt though the rooms were a little chilly in the morning probably mainly because our room at the time didn't have a heater.

This hotel is amazing. I highly recommend the whole experience. The food was fresh, the staff friendly the place was kept spotless and welcoming - but it was the decor that I loved the most. It was like going back into the 70s and so endearing that it reminded me of my grandmother. The solid wood furniture, comfy beds, bakelite units and 'Tardis-like' showers (my kids would have loved the showers when they were small and Dr Who fans) were gleaming like new and a pleasure to see and use in these environmentally friendly days when we are trying to save the earth. I mean, anyway, who wants to pay more to stay at an unnecessarily updated hotel with modern, disposable. lightweight furniture and fittings? I loved it and loved the location. I loved the price and food. Very pleasant exceptional-quality bargain where you are treated with utmost respect and care and can get on with enjoying your stay.

I liked everything, especially the brilliant sunsets where the whole sky, bay and street turned red. Never seen anything quite so great.

The crowning glory of this place was Tom who ran the front desk and the bar. I would go back just for this gentleman alone. He is a gem! So enthusiastic and kind. He ran from behind the counter to greet us with key in hand every time we returned...it wasn't always the right key (we had several rooms) but who cares!? He is a treasure. Breakfast was first-rate - they take your order the night before. Feeding four teenaged boys is no easy feat and everyone really liked it. The glassed in bar and breakfast area has one of the best views in the world. The Oban bay is breathtaking.

This hotel has not been upgraded in decades (many many decades) and the rooms are funky, oddly configured and awkward. But for the money, a great value, and for the benefits of the bar, the staff and breakfast...totally worth it!

The hotel is very old fashioned which is what I expected from the outside. It's like going back in time, which is good for some things, but the rooms really need modernisation. The best bits are the absolutely heavenly comfort of the beds and the fresh sheets. The breakfast was really good.

The fittings around the wardrobe are hanging off, the toilet feels like it's going to break, and there were two planks of wood on the wall for no apparent reason. The tea cups are tiny and would benefit being changed to mugs. The bin is so full of rust that I am surprised it's not falling apart. I understand that it's the summer months and the best time to sell rooms but paying £106 a night seems expensive considering all the things I have listed.

The hotel itself is a little run down and in need of some tlc. However the location is great , away from the hustle and bustle of the main tourist area but only a 10 minute walk away. The view of the bay from the hotel is fabulous. We booked a room with bay view and what a view! The staff of the hotel were very welcoming and efficient. The breakfast choice was very good . Ordering the day before is great.I dont like buffet breakfast as the food could be there in the heated containers for a while.The breakfast is served to you at the time of your choice.It is cooked to perfection and piping hot.The system they use is similar to a bed and breakfast and works great. The music in the cocktail bar on a Friday evening is great. Local musicians get together with their musical instruments playing scottish songs etc. Was a great night. Good car parking available also.

Unfortunately the hotel has suffered a little after covid. I was aware before booking, this hotel was a little run down decor and facility wise, hense its two star rating.I was a little dissapointed the second morning of our stay as the water from the shower was cold for some reason. The first morning it was fine.There was a lack of electrical sockets. The area the kettle was had no available electric socket. You had to plug in kettle by the bedside cabinet or next to Tv socket and carry kettle back across the room, not ideal but not a great problem.

The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. Some of the other guests were really nice, we made a few friends who we would like to bump into again, most of them were returning guests. The breakfast was amazing and plenty of it to set you up for the day ahead. The hotel sits in a beautiful location, close to all amenities Oban has to offer.

There were no towels in the room when we arrived but that was soon rectified.

Great location overlooking the coast, superb efficient and friendly staff. Dog friendly with parking on site. Bar food (mince and potatoes) was tasty fare and good value for money.

Our room shower definitely could do with an upgrade as it produced less pressure than wringing a wet flannel. The rooms could do with a lick of paint as a minimum as they are showing their age.

Great base with great facilities and staff very helpful and accommodating. On site parking on th front of an amazing base In Oban with access to all the islands. Great weekend made even better with the weather. Will DEFINITELY be back

Fantastic position in Oban and staff very accommodating. Room great and onsite parking freeing you up to enjoy the delights of a fantastic town
