"Everything about our stay was perfect. The staff is amazing. The property itself is gorgeous. Felt like we were being pampered and cared for the whole time. Had dinner at The Deck and that was wonderful also. Our only regret is that we only stayed one night. Would love to return and spend more time there."

"Our studio was very nice except for the bed. The mattress needs serious help. It was an old spring mattress and NOT comfortable. Otherwise the place was very good."

Muthu Oban Regent Hotel

Muthu Oban Regent Hotel

8/10 Good
"Despite how it looks on the outside, this is a very nice hotel. The outside looks rough and needs some attention, but our room was lovely. If you have heavy luggage, be aware that you have to bring it up several stairs to reach the lobby (there is no ramp or lift - the stairs are the only way). The breakfast was good, the people were pleasant, and the amenities were fine. The standout feature of this hotel is the location. Oban is a really lovely town and this hotel is right across from the harbor."
