Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were friendly and welcoming, lots of conversation and humour. The food was good, we tried a few different options. The avocado and poached egg on sourdough was delicious and the pastries were fresh and so good. We had a classic double room on the ground floor. Plenty of space for the 2 of us, the shower was fab and toiletries were very refreshing. We had the best 2 nights sleep. The bed was huge and very comfy. The tea, coffee, hot chocolate and goodies were a perfect treat with 2 days of travelling and exploring. What a view while we enjoyed our drinks from the bar. Oban was such a lovely place and we wouldn't hesitate to book here again on return.

Fabulous stay !

Beautifullly situated hotel with amazing views over the water with lovely seating area to enjoy the scenery. Small, but comfortable clean room. Delicious breakfast served in no time. Staff were friendly and professional and their uniforms were so smart. Highly recommend this hotel, we’d definitely return.

Property fine, staff generally good. Expensive. Room had marks all over floor ( needs vax) parking facilities poor. £4.50 for 1/2 cup of coffee is not good value. Rooms are too full of chairs etc , not required. Obviously throw to back of hotel to make room for Americans so they spend more .

The lift was not functioning but stay did bring bags to the room. A challenge with older hotel infrastructure is that many many step are required to get to a room. No lift meant 40 steps up and 40 steps down.

The Gem of Oban

The chef and the floor staff in the hotel restaurant should be complimented on their food, appearance and attention to detail. Just amazing keep up the fabulous work. The bar and lobby entrance sharp and sophisticated , I must say a special mention to the front bar with view over the bay. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed and decorated. For those with fur friends - there is a doggy wall of fame
