Breafast was first class, room was clean and quite. Staff very polite.

The Hotel has a brilliant breakfast. Our room no.130 was right above the kitchen extractors (perhaps payback as I moaned they didn't respond to messages).It was like sleeping next to a jet engine or rather not sleeping. It was expensive and as we chose it for a location but by time we left we were exhausted due to lack of sleep due to the noise and extractor vibration. Our view was a slate roof, just a slate roof towering above the window so pointless even having a window. For just over £150 for one night with breakfast it was extortionate, but it was a good breakfast and staff were lovely.

Very dated hotel , single beds very narrow for an adult , needs major updating . Wouldnt consider staying again unless refurbished

Stayed for a single night, in order to get an early ferry the next morning. Discovered on checkin that the car park had a £10 per night fee which wasn't specified on Hotels.com at the time of booking (it has now since been added). There is a car park nearly where you can park for free between 6pm and 9am. The hotel generally, and the room in particular was very dated, the decor feeling very 1970s/1980s . Nevertheless the room was clean, everything worked and the bed was OK, but sleep quality wasnt good. There was a large group in the hotel at the time and they were quite loud at night and really early in the morning - the walls were very thin. Can't comment on the food as we didn't eat there. Would I stay again?? Probably not.

Staff were very nice and helpful. Great location and had a room with a view. Shower did not drain at all. Breakfast buffet was good to get the morning started. Overall an average hotel that had parts being renovated. Definitely had the old feeling vibe and very dated.

This hotel requires total refurbishment. No matter how hard staff try to maintain a standard it is impossible when the hotel building has deteriorated so badly. SPEND SOME MONEY ON THIS PROPERTY.

We only stayed one night. The location is great, right on the water. Very beautiful views. The hotel is old and it shows. The room is very basic, no amenities to mention. The floors seemed unstable and uneven. Not worth the money. Parking comes at a price of GBP 10 per night.

Very old hotel and it shows. The room was actually nice enough but the floor creaked with every step. The place was probably something in its day, but now it just looks old. And for the price I can get a Hilton hotel. Location is good and the view was great. Could not check in until 3, no exceptions. Also, it was cool when we were there and the steam heat did not seem to be adjustable. The windows allowed cold air to infiltrate because they are old. Not impressed.

Old, poorly run. This hotel must’ve been very grand at one point, but it has been poorly kept, and it was very rundown and Old . the bathrooms were in disrepair.

First impressions were not great. The place looks down at the heel. Tiny three person rickety lift broke down for a while causing us to climb the stairs to 3rd floor. Bed was clean and comfortable. Staff were all great. Breakfast was good. Be aware you will be charged £10/day to park your car, this was a surprise but it is mentioned somewhere in the blurb if you read it all. All in all we were not too impressed, but we were there just to get a bed and a breakfast for 3 days, so it was OK.

I was disappointed with my stay at the Great Western Hotel. I paid extra for a seaside-view room, but the view was largely obstructed by construction equipment and materials, which was not what I expected when booking. The hotel itself feels quite old and in need of refurbishment. The front entrance and revolving door are noticeably dated and could benefit from an upgrade. Throughout the property, the floors were very squeaky—including in the hallways, bar area, and even inside the guest rooms—which added to the feeling that the building is showing its age. Another inconvenience was the lift, which is extremely small. It could barely fit one person with a suitcase comfortably, making it difficult when moving luggage. While the location is convenient and the hotel has character, the overall condition of the property did not justify the price paid, especially given the obstructed sea view. I would recommend that management invest in updating the facilities and be more transparent when construction may affect the views guests are paying for. Parking was also a disappointment. The hotel advertises parking facilities, but the available spaces were very limited and difficult to access.

Breakfast was excellent, super tasty!

Breakfast cheap & cheerful not worth the extra £15pppn. Parking £10 pd!Seemingly mentioned in the tiniest of print! Room was clean. Staff friendly.

The only shortfall was having no beer at the bar. Guinness or cider were the only options.Many went to the bar next door.

This hotel is a little tired but the staff are very helpful and efficient. Our room had an excellent view over Oban harbour it was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the drinks (tea coffee of chocolate) and the complimentary biscuits were really good. The window frames are in need of repair but the window were clean as was everything else in the room. Breakfast had a great choice and everything was tasty and plentiful. Parking was a bit of an issue but the staff were excellent and did everything possible to resolve any difficulties and I appreciated there efforts.

Comfortable hotel with very friendly and obliging staff. We enjoyed our stay in beautiful Oban.

A sad hotel that no doubt has seen better days. Some upgrades being done apparently but our initial room was terrible complete with faulty plumbing. They did change our room to a 'superior' after I highlighted our issues and the staff have to be commended but I don't envy them fronting this establishment. There must be better options in Oban.

Good place for a short stay, Great! view btw. Didn't got time to visit the Bar or try the Breakfast menu but by the looks of the ambience it was pretty neat n clean.

The restaurant staff were pretty hopeless

It was perfect for me & my little dog.. All the hotels are generally in need of upgrading, but the times we are in make this difficult. In all honesty i can see our traditional hotels disappearing fast, for everyone in Hospitality they are being squeezed from every angle. Therefore I choose to see the good & I enjoyed it, warm & cosy. I found them perfectly courteous & most helpful to allow me to eat the lovely breakfast-as I had my furry friend, in the lounge area overlooking the sea… It was a lovely stay.
