    The venue was in a very central location close to restaurant, train station/ferry port and the centre of Oban with parking.

    I truly enjoyed spotless and air-conditioned room here.

    Booked a room with bath. The location was very central, amazing in centre of the town. And it was just a short stroll away from Baab, ate there couple of times.

    Welcome base for discovering Oban. Magnificent, incredible location just off train station/ferry port & town centre, the harbour and restaurants and ferry terminal. Again, not far from an open stone tower. Main bar in the hotel.

    Stayed for 3 nights in this upgraded and absolutely great place, enjoyed that. The food was fab and there were a lot of dishes in the menu. The hotel was in the very central setting close to ferry. What's more, it was right by train station/ferry port & town centre, pubs, restaurants, trains and ferries, and the harbour.
