Had an overnight stay here. The room was clean and comfortable. It was also "compact and bijou" !! To be fair we did only book 4 hours beforehand and it was the last double room available and at a knock down price. Breakfast was ok. A typical hotel buffet breakfast. Why do these hot buffet tables only keep the food... More

Before you book this hotel do check that they don't have a wedding on as if you are on the second floor you will hear it. Also check to see if there is a dog staying with its owners in a room above yours. We had a one above us that howled when its owners left it. Couldn't fault the... More

I stayed here for one night and have only praise for this traditional hotel which could not be handier for catching trains, ferries or for shopping in Oban.

My partner and I were on a bus tour and stayed at the hotel from Monday until Friday. Although there were 3 coach parties booked in, the staff were very well organised to cope with this. The buffet breakfast was excellent as was dinner which was served quickly and efficiently by friendly waitresses. We found all the staff to be... More
