"The Great Western Hotel is now returning to "great"in every way. Really enjoyed my recent stay. You will not find a better location than this centre piece of Oban bay. Good choice of food and drink served in a nice friendly atmosphere. The staff are also a real asset of this hotel and it is plain to see that the ownership and management are now determined to continuously improve and look after this great hotel. I look forward to returning to The Great Western Hotel as soon as I can."

"Parking on site was available off season, room and hotel clean and staff were very welcoming. Great location for walking High street "

"We loved our stay! Right on the peninsula and right on the way for our road trip! Staff was friendly, but I couldn’t control the thermostat and it was 26 C when we walked in and the shower curtain was missing so everything got soaked. Other than that, truly lovely stay!"

"The staff were all excellent, helpful, kind and friendly. I would compare this hotel room with a travel lodge but with a restaurant and breakfast attached to it. I had a nicer room for less money in the same week. I guess prices have escalated. Well done staff! You made it worth while."

"Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay before our trip up Ben Nevis. Very easy to get to, plenty of parking and included in the price of your stay. Cafe/bar/restaurant was brilliant especially since we had a 13 hour drive up from the south and got there about half an hour before closing but they stayed open and we had a great meal with really good local beer. Rooms were very well stocked with tea coffee biscuits, shampoo conditioner and soap. Plugs both side of the bed, you can connect to the TV for youtube, shower pressure was good, temperature of the rooms was great. Rooms came with a fan and hairdryer which was a must for some of our guests. I think they said 24 hour manned reception not that we needed it. Great price great location, now I know this place exists I wont be staying anywhere else!!"

"Easy check in. Nice large clean bedroom. Good breakfast. Friendly staff"

"My room was very clean. The staff was excellent. Unfortunately this time I did not have breakfast. The parking was excellent in the centre of oban ,For Oban it was a bonus free..parking."

"Phenomenal place, everyone's Scottish dream, cozy, elegant, with spectacular views and such a memorable sunset. The room was comfortable and quiet with everything we needed and the breakfast was scrumptious. I can't wait to come back!"

"The room was dirty, dusty, the menu in the draw had tea/coffee stains on it - although it was laminated- and the drawers were full of crumbs/ bits, the toilet was tiny and the whole room was untidy/shabby looking. The breakfast which we paid £13.50 each for was not great, there was a good choice but the bacon was very lightly cooked the beans were cold and the eggs were either done too much hard or not enough & snotty. I only saw one member of staff the whole time he seemed to do everything reminded me of the tv show fawlty towers but they had more staff."
