"Quirky little hotel right in Oban. Staff are wonderful. Carpet etc a little tired and stairs can be a challenge. Some rooms have sloped ceiling in the bathroom which is a little awkward. All in all it was good but priced in a way that we expected more. Parking is at public parking lot a few hundred feet away. Super convenient to walk around Oban. Oban sits below a cliff so any hotels "with a view" will require much climbing."

"Staff in general were very helpful and friendly. Lovely location overlooking the loch. The cooked breakfast was very good. The spa was good, pool long enough to get a decent swim. Jacuzzi and steam room nice too. The only drawback was that the spa only has 4 cushioned loungers so many guests had nowhere to lounge and read their books on busy afternoons, and there was a bit of a scramble when a sunlounger became free. Adequate parking."
