We were travelling without a car and stayed here because it was near the station and ferry terminal. We had a room at the front with a side view of the sea, and a small ensuite. The room was a bit crowded with a rather large armchair, but it was clean and comfortable. We had a good cooked breakfast the... More

I was a little nervous since there aren't really any pictures, but the place was everything I needed and more. Cute and cozy little room. En suite bathroom. Delicious and unexpectedly huge English breakfast in the morning. Very nice proprietor who was always cheerful and willing to help. The perfect stay for my time in Oban and exploring the Highlands.... More

Booked the Maridon for a couple of nights. Owner had warned that the only room he had left was a small double but it was absolutely fine. Nice and clean with ensuite, TV, tea, coffee etc. Even a view up to McCaigs Tower. the Cathedral and the sea. Breakfast was enormous! Fresh strawberries, bananas, oranges, yoghurts, cereal and a good... More

My parents and I had a very nice stay here earlier this month. Both rooms were modern and clean, with a nice level of decor, and plenty of television channels to watch. What is also a plus is that free wi-fi is provided also, which is really nice. But the most special thing about staying here is the breakfast. I... More

Maridon House is clean, cheery place very conveniently located -- 2 minutes walk from the ferry or train and 2 minutes from downtown. The owners, James and Claire, are delightful, very friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to get us a good breakfast even when we had to leave super early to catch a ferry. In many... More

We stayed for one night at the Maridon, before catching the Tiree ferry in the morning. The room was quite small, but adequate for our purpose. The owners were friendly and helpful. Although we had to leave very early, before breakfast, the dining room was laid out with cereals, coffee, juice, croissants etc, for us to help ourselves. This B&B... More

The Maridon guest house is clean, comfortable and within easy walking distance to the centre of Oban. The proprietors seem to work together to provide a pleasant and positive environment. It provides in-room wifi, ensuite bathrooms with tub and a hearty Scottish breakfast complete with black pudding! For a night or two in Oban, the Maridon is an ideal and... More

My sister and I have stayed at this cute little bed and breakfast in May 2012. It was very random as we did not book anything in advance in Oban. James, the owner, was fantastic accommodating us in such a short notice. The price was definitely great and the room was very clean an appropriately decorated. There is no hair... More
