Great location and clean. More spacious than many places in Scotland for hotel stays. However, breakfast is very expensive for what you get and I did have a broken shower drain that caused a bit of bathroom flooding, however they said it would be fixed before the next guest used the room.

We had one of the studio rooms with a fully equipped kitchen - dishes, cutlery, cooker, washer/dryer and fridge. Spotlessly clean, spacious, and quiet with a comfortable king sized bed and huge bathroom. Breakfast was excellent. Staff friendly and couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay. First class.

The staff was great. They offered lots of helpful information about the area. One of the ladies yelled at my husband because he mispronounced Oban, and I love her for that! This place is great, a convenient location, and really quiet. I like places like this that are just a little bit off the main route because they're not in the hustle and bustle, but close enough to it. They recommended some great places to eat, as well.

There is an additional charge Hotel is very central and town centre is easily walkable Didn’t use the bar facilities. Car park is at rear and charges £10 per day Would recommend
