Welcoming hotel with short walk into the centre

We enjoyed our stay very much. The staff on Reception were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The twin beds were comfy and the room well supplied with toiletries. Its so nice to be in a hotel where we can adjust the heating too. The room was at the back and nice and quiet and only a short walk into the centre of Oban.The only criticism I had was the shower which was just about warm, despite running the water for 5 minutes.

Oban Short Stay

The hotel is run down and in need of an upgrade. I stayed in a Junior Suite, I thought for extra comfort and luxury. The room is dated and cold, I had to request an extra heater and blankets. The window seals are all shot - I appreciate the room was on the front, but the wind noise and draft were terrible. The bathroom only had an electric towel heater, it was freezing and the window would have been aswell left open, again useless. The was pool was still closed - the water temperature was to cold - The breakfast was ok and the staff were pleasant - the only bonus was the free parking.

STAY AWAY

An absolutely disgrace of the service! We arrived on saturday 7th of december to find out that the hotel is closed till end of January. There was only a wee note on the front door with some contact number to call so we did. They relocated us to another hotel muthu oban regent hotel which is not at all what we have booked. Apparently we should get an email ealier about this but i never got anything. After a stay i was trying to get any compensation for the inconvenience but we got declined as this hotel is 'better' standard. Luck of pool, car park you name it...but this is better... Stay away from if you want to enjoy yoir holidays in Oban

Badly let down - will not book a Muthu hotel again

Where to start! We were not informed that the hotel was closed and that our booking was moved to a different hotel. We only found out when we got there and contacted the central reservations. There was no pool or sauna at the replacement hotel, and no parking. It was their good luck that the public parking was free that weekend because of a winter festival. The room was dreadful - far too small for two beds, we could only move around one at a time due to lack of space. The integrated hospitality tray plug didn't have a socket within reach. We had booked a room with sea view - what we got was a tiny room with a tiny window out to the side of an old, dilapidated building. No compensation was offered either for the lack of facilities, the absence of onsite parking or for the awful bedroom.

Beaware that they are currently closed. The booking here still went through and you're supposed to go to a sister branch, apparently. I didn't know until I got to the hotel and there was just a paper notive on the door.

Have stayed in this hotel several times and am never disappointed. The hotel is in an excellent location and is always very clean. I also appreciate how close it is for walking into the town. I would like to mention that the staff were once again very friendly and welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble. I plan to go back to Oban soon and I know this will be the hotel I use again next time.
