    charming decor
    absence of lift

    The charming decor really highlighted the

    local history and added a unique touch to our stay. While the cleanliness of the room was commendable, I found the absence of a lift quite challenging, especially with our luggage. The family-run atmosphere was warm and inviting, though.

    clean room
    charming personal touches
    convenient location
    dated room
    no lift

    The stay was primarily to explore the beautiful seaside town, and I must say, the location was spot on! Just a short stroll from stunning views and attractions like McCaig's Tower and the charming jetty gallery. The room was clean, but a bit dated. still, it felt homey. The convenience of being near everything made it easy to pop in and out around town. I also appreciated the charming little personal touches that made the experience unique. Overall, it was a decent stay to enjoy Oban's offerings.

    clean room
    great location
    missing lift

    central location but lacking some amenities

    The room was clean with plenty of tea and coffee available, which was a nice touch. I enjoyed the large TV during my stay. The location was truly fantastic, just steps away from the best fish and chips I've ever had and the Waterstones next door was a wonderful find.

    The absence of a lift made carrying my luggage a bit cumbersome.

    cozy room
    harbor view
    tea and coffee facilities
    compact room
    no lift

    I stayed in a Single Room for 4 nights, and while it was cozy and clean, it was definitely compact. The homey touches gave it a personal feel, but the lack of a lift made hauling my luggage a bit of a workout, especially with those lovely old stairs. The view from my room was a nice bonus, peeking out at the harbor made every morning a bit brighter. The tea and coffee facilities were a nice touch too!

    Staying at the Palace Hotel, Small was an experience. The charming old building is packed with character, and my room was clean with all the necessary amenities, including a lovely view of Oban Bay. The quirky layout and delightful decor really made my stay memorable.

    No lift for heavy bags.

    friendly staff
    no elevator

    The location is fantastic, just a couple of minutes from the ferry terminal, making it easy to explore the nearby islands. I also enjoyed that various restaurants, including a wonderful Indian spot, were right next door, providing great options for a vegetarian like myself. The staff was incredibly friendly, with a personalized service that made me feel welcomed.

    The absence of an elevator made bringing luggage to the top floors quite cumbersome.

    sea view
    cozy room
    charming hotel
    children's play area

    We loved our stay, especially with the cozy sea view room. The hotel's charm was evident as we explored Oban, and the breakfast was delightful, just what we needed after spending time with our newborn at the lovely local attractions.

    In my wife’s opinion, a children’s play area would enhance the experience for families.

    delicious soup
    great location
    lack of lift
    misleading parking
    outdated decor

    The convenience of being right next to a fantastic Indian restaurant was a highlight, and the homemade soup served was comforting and delicious. However, the absence of a lift made it challenging to access the upper floors, especially since we were on the fourth floor with 89 steps. Additionally, the parking situation was misleading, and the WiFi charges in the rooms were unexpected. Cleanliness was satisfactory, but the decor felt outdated, leaving room for improvement.
