Oban Adults Only Holidays

We found this a bit of a mixed experience. As we arrived very late, we only noticed the exterior the next morning. The building is clearly a 1960/70s structure, and the concrete architecture is quite stark and not particularly appealing. However, It’s clear the hotel is in the process of being refurbished, with the entrance and hallways already completed to a very high standard—they feel grand and welcoming. Unfortunately, this doesn’t quite carry through to all of the rooms. While our room had clearly had some updates, such as fresh paint and relatively new tiles in the bathroom, other areas felt quite dated. In particular, the bathroom overall could benefit from a full upgrade, and the rug in the room was well past its best and would be better removed. The furniture was dated too. That said, we do appreciate that refurbishing a large property takes time, and improvements don’t happen overnight. However, it might make more sense for bedrooms to be prioritised, as they have the biggest impact on guests’ overall experience. We didn’t have the opportunity to try the food or use any of the facilities, as this was a last-minute booking following a delayed flight, so we can’t comment on those aspects.

The hotel is located close to the downtown train and bus stations, just a short 5-10 minute walk. There are a good selection of restaurants and pubs close by. We chose the king bed room which was more than adequate in terms of its size. We were hoping for something with a view but our room looked directly at a brick wall that was just feet from the window. As an upgraded room, I would expect better than that. The hotel is clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Some room furniture has had better days and may need to be updated.

Probably my favourite hotel in Glasgow. Friendly staff. Great drinks. Double height ceilings and period details give it a real lux feel. The rooms are on the right side of shabby chic but extremely comfortable. Great place to explore the West End from.

The building. Enjoyed the deal for arrival cocktail and breakfast.

The onsite parking is what can only be described as dodgy. Being in a balcony room, there was zero privacy between the balconies.

It’s a beautiful location and a lovely cosy lodge. We had a great time.

Great hotel and staff. Will stay again if in the area.

The staff was amazing. They were very welcoming and helpful upon arrival. We tried all the restaurants and lounges and enjoyed every one

The location is perfect right next to most transportation. I will definitely stay there again.
