Very well located with on site parking. Despite the fact there are many guests, the dining and bar are not well visited. Probably too many other options.

We had a studio apartment which was large and comfortable although it was apart from the hotel with only velux windows in the roof. Parking and breakfast were extra. Full Scottish was ok.

Fab wee hotel with onsight parking. Room was spotless. Tea and coffee making facilities with bottled water and biscuits replenished every day. Fresh towels every day and housekeeping staff were so helpful and chatty. Hotel is situated on main road into Oban town centre. They have a beautiful bar area which is very quiet and would benefit from offering evening meal. Overall a wonderful stay. This is our fourth stay here and will most definitely be returning.
