"A delightful hotel perfectly situated on the banks of the River Ness and only a short walk to the bustle of the small city. Guests are truly treated with first class accommodations upon entering the building; rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated, heated bathroom floors, and even a pillow menu - which I have never seen before. Service and food are both notable for breakfast and dinners... bar is cozy. It is a place I would definitely stay again and again."

"The Pearle Oban is right in the heart of the city...beautiful view overlooking the water. Accessible to all sights by walking and plenty of restaurants in the area. I am not sure why there is no outlet in the bathrooms; it does make it difficult to blow dry your hair...lol The staff was fabulous; held our luggage for a day while we took an overnight trip to Isle of Mull. Great breakfast spread that was included. Loved our stay in Scotland!"
