Independent - accommodation in Oban

Nice clean hotel. Had everything they advertised.

No mirror in room for my wife to view blow drying her hair. We had excellent view of sea from our room. Evening meal service was friendly and attentive. Bar service was slow but the barman was very helpful and informative. Overall not unhappy with our one night stay. Reception was very friendly and helpful.

I'll cut to the chase with this one. If you're expecting all the frills, you won't get them. HOWEVER... Its an absolute bargain and certainly ideal for a short break. The hotel itself may be in need of some work (and it looks like some of that work has started), but ultimately, its clean, comfortable, ideally located given its very close proximity to the railway station etc, and even the noise issues that people had raised in other reviews wasnt an issue. You might get a bit of background noise but its not offputting and what do you expect? Its in the town centre next to a railway station and a ferry port. I still managed a good nights sleep. Check in was also very straightforward and easy too. Definitely recommended for anyone who needs a place to get a good nights kip for the next days adventures. 👍
