Newly renovated historic building with cozy and tasteful interior. The breakfast buffet needs improving for 4* level and the need to reserve even when the restaurant is empty should be reconsidered. Overall wonderful staff an property.

Hotel is homely and staff very welcoming. Room soft furnishings etc were nice. Food supplied by the hotel was really nice, chef was great. However during our stay the water supply to the hotel is not clean, the toilets/ taps/ shower we’re all running brown/ orange water. The staff said we would have an endless supply of bottled water etc so not to worry and it was fine to bathe in as long as we didn’t drink it but it put me off using the shower etc on our overnight when I would have liked to. I also felt £40 overnight charge for our dog was a bit steep when he didn’t get any kind of welcome package/ dog bed/ biscuit included, which is the norm on any other trip we have taken him with us.

The property was stunning! The staff were so friendly and dedicated and the bar was an excellent addition to the space. The beds were so comfortable and the room was lovely. It is a 10 minute drive out of town but cans are easily accessible and it’s nice to be in a quieter spot!

Not all they are aspiring to be .
Hotel is very nice and everything is top quality except for the service. At well over £200 per night you expect your breakfast to come in the correct order, ie not your cooked breakfast before your porridge. Then when the cooked breakfast comes back 10 mins later you don’t expect it to be the same one you sent away which was neither fresh nor hot. Poor waiter service, obviously untrained. Not good enough for what they are trying to project re price. Top quality destination with very poor quality service.

Last minute luxury in Oban
Last minute booking at the end of a 6 day break travelling the west of Scotland. A very beautiful and unique hotel in a fantastic location, quiet and overlooking the water, but only 10 mins drive to Oban centre. Fantastic help on arrival by the reception and senior staff/manager to arrange a room with a bath and also late dining as we had been delayed getting there. Lovely varied menu and extensive drinks list which contributed to a fabulous evening! Great option to use the private HotTub, although we didn't have the time on this occasion, but definitely will do on our next stay. All in all, a fantastic hotel and great value!
