Value for money and friendly welcome!
Amazing stay. Use this place loads and its total value for money. Can’t argue with the pricing which is half if its closest rival and with the pub joined which has great staff and entertainment; you can literally fall out the pub into bed!!!

Not What I Expected
Our stay was just ok but not what I expected. Entrance through a very busy pub/bar, cobwebs in the room and noise from the bar at night.

Comfortable but work in progress.
I’d give this 3* based on price we paid, room was warm and comfortable but the hotel
is clearly being renovated and the room needs a bit of tlc. Fine for a night and has potential for future.

Filthy and loud
You sleep above a dingey, LOUD pup - prepare for no sleep.
We kinda knew what we were in for but needed a keep stay and for that it done the job but an awful place. It's filthy and so dated, it was a laugh or cry situation and we just had to laugh, get out head down and leave as soon as possible.

Decent room, value for money in a tourist town.
It is important to remember that this is a pub first with rooms playing second fiddle. That said, the room was good for the price and just distant (meaning on the second story) to where the noise, even on a Saturday night, could not be heard. There was even a separate entrance having a key so the drunks could be avoided. I'd stay there again, given the price.

This is very close to the station and ferry terminal, there is reasonable paid parking nearby.
Very central to town.
The bar is nice.
The hotel maybe a bit rundown but for the price you cant complain, it has a shower and internet TV

Clarendon hotel
Staff were okay but we had to enter and leave through a side door or walk through the bar. The room we were in had mould in the bathroom and the plaster above the bed was cracking and looked like it had a water leak. The beds are comfortable but not over comfortable. The view from the window was of a slate roof.

I enjoyed my stay at the Claredon. Aside from having to navigate some narrow stairs with my luggage, I don’t have any complaints. The room was warm, dry, and quiet, which was a nice reprieve from the Argyll rain. All in all, I would stay again!

Great little location pretty much in the middle of Oban and walking distance from everything
Ok its got some stairs to get to your room, but the rooms are quiet clean simple and do the job perfectly. My 3rd visit this hotel and this is now my first choice hotel in Oban. I will be back
