The hotel was perfect for our overnight stay in Oban. Our room faced the water, which was a plus. Wonderful breakfast and dinner included. Both delicious and filling. Enjoyed the sunset in the bar area. Staff made me a perfect cocktail! Wish we could have stayed longer and we would definitely stay at this hotel if we return.
We have no issues with this hotel. No negative comments at all.

Superb view over the Bay, night and day. Spacious and comfortable room and for once we had a chair each to sit on and admire the view - not always the case in a double or twin room - and the TV worked - again not always the case. Staff were helpful and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay.
The hospitality tray was a bit basic, Nescafe sachets of coffee and Tetley T-Bags only - a wee biscuit would've been nice. We paid well for the sea view and feel the breakfast should have been included as we did not think it was worth £10 each, per day, but then we don't go for a cooked breakfast even on holiday so for others who do it probably would seem worth it. The conveyor belt toaster ignored the bread on the first run through and then burnt it black the second time around. Perhaps some help by staff with adjusting the burn rate would be useful or even what side down the bread goes in on the second run for those not used to this type of toaster.

The waterfront view from our window was amazing and enjoyed a spectacular sunset! The bar within the Hotel was a fun spot to have a nightcap before heading to bed; our bartender (can’t remember his name but he was from Portugal) was very friendly and made us feel welcomed.
The location was not quite in the city center but we love to walk and it is just a couple of minutes to get to shopping and pubs. There is limited onsite parking however there are 2 car parks a short distance away so it was not really a hardship. We dropped off our belongings at check in and then parked our car.

Fantastic view and position in Oban, next to all the sights and in walking distance from everything.
I would say we opted for this property as it was described as pet friendly, but I’d describe it as more pet tolerable. Everyone was lovely about it and I appreciate travelling with a dog is a privilege and not a right. More facilities to ease the stay would be great e.g water/food bowls, doggie towels after a rainy day in Oban. Radiators were also not really on during our stay, so drying out our dogs towel wasn’t the easiest! Overall though it was very pleasant.

The view from our room was great and the food was good
Room not serviced on one day, when we complained to reception we were told that housekeeping were very busy so room didn't get serviced or tea and coffee etc wasn't replenished either, we had to complain about the shower as the trap wasn't taking away the water and when we turned on tap in the sink the water and grit came up in the shower, complained to Reception and was told that evening on arrival back to hotel that it had been fixed and it hadn't, water was still gurgling up into shower

Although we didnt eat in the restaurant this time I am giving top scores because of the room we were given with its spectacular top floor sea views,spaciousness and comfort, almost a pent house suite. The staff were also exceptionally helful and professional.

view from room was great but window needs some attention...very heavy to open. room size was very generous , i did not expect so much room. old damp patch needs some attention but overall very smart. bed comfortable.
reception and lounge a bit soul less/ could be made more welcoming. there has obviously been some water ingress problems in ceilings - they appear dry now so please paint over. The marks just draw attention to it. The plasterwork and cornices in the rooms are fabulous - show them off!

Our room was spacious and had a great view. It was classed as a superior double on booking.com and I would happily stay again. It's in a great position in beautiful Oban. Staff are helpful and they let us leave our luggage there until time to leave for our next transport. Bar is great and enjoys the same great view as our room did.
Yes, it does need renovating and the floor is creaky, but I expect that that goes for all of the grand old hotels on the waterfront there.

Lovely help-yourself breakfast. Superb location- walking distance to all, shops, ferries, departures. Especially liked the ‘suite’ feel of the separate single sleeping area and large bathroom in the family room. Very comfortable beds.
A bedside light to read by in the single sleeping room. Broken window (glass missing) in main room. Toilet cistern in need of repair. Shower awkward to use. Single room badly in need of decorating.

Grand, makes a statement on the sea front, had the central bay room, perfect spot to watch the boats regardless of the weather, Clean, comfortable, polite staff, breakfast was good, bar was reasonably stocked,
Window broken in the room took away some of the view when sat in the window Place is looking a little tired, difficult to compete with the new hotels in other areas, I’ve had a lot better for a lot less, For the area though, can’t complain
