We stayed for 1 night, and that was fine. Not great if we were to have stayed longer. Our room did not have hot water, beds were not comfortable, and overall rooms/ decor need an update/ refresh. However, the staff were very kind and helpful!

This quirky hotel is a gem in Oban. Very comfortable room once we learned how to work shower and heaters. The room was a good size with king bed. Breakfast was hearty and the coffee and brown bread were delicious. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants - we had a friend with a mobility scooter and no troubles in the hotel or town. Really nice place to come visit. Stephanie at front desk super helpful!
