Stayed one night and had the car valet parked. The car was on time in the morning. Pub in the hotel was excellent and our breakfast was just right. As Americans, we are used to huge breakfasts but this was a great change from feeling over stuffed! Hotel was right on the water with amazing views! Highly recommend a stay at Oban Bay Hotel!

My first time at the Oban Bay Hotel. I used the valet parking service for my car which I found very helpful. There is a free car park nearby though if people prefer. The evening meal I ordered in the bar was lovely and I had a view of the ferries coming and going. I wasnt able to book in for the time I wanted for breakfast which was a shame but I appreciated the breakfast to go they arranged for me so that I could catch my ferry to Mull in the morning. The room was really cosy and quiet. I appreciated the Tunnocks treats left in the room for me too. I had a great night's sleep. I wouldnt hesitate to book again in the future. The staff were all very helpful and friendly too.

Staff was kind and friendly. Our room was not clean, the sheets were stained and it was a very dark, dingy room with a view of a parking alley and no water. There was absolutely no parking. Rather than telling us they offered valet they had us drive around looking for parking (there is none that’s not max 2hrs that we could find). When we returned unsuccessful we saw a sign for valet and asked about that and were then offered valet parking for $25/night which we chose to do. That basically meant our car was parked in front of the hotel for the time we were there in the singular valet spot lol. The hot tub costs money and must be booked. We enjoyed our dinners at the conservatory which is the only place we could see the bay. The breakfasts were okay, but definitely not great. Glad we saw Oban, but wouldn’t stay here again.

The hotel was quaint and charming, a little old in places but nothing major. The staffs were extremely helpful and pleasant. The location was great. Breakfast was delicious, we also had dinner there and it was wonderful, other than they did not cook my steak correctly, but they took it off the bill, which is great customer service.

Perfect! So glad we booked here!! Great location, lounge areas to eat, drink, and enjoy the view. We also enjoyed the view from our room. Very clean rooms with space for 2 people. Food was so-so. 3 of us ordered medium rare steak for dinner and all three steaks were cooked well done. Other than that, it was a perfect vacation.

I sat down before a party of 12 did and waitress got their orders first. Then took another tables order before me. Bed was hard. Phone to receprion did not work. Toilet had very little room to sit down without knees hitting shower glass. No hair dryer and shower handles did not work conveniently. The soap in tower container would not dispense. Side of fruit swrved before breakfast came in the appearance of a soup. The french toast was good. The bed duvet was warm.

The restaurant was wonderful and the view and proximity to the harbor was amazing! It is an old building and we requested a twin room. The bathroom was pretty tight and the television was placed so low only one person could see it. But overall the experience was lovely.

Breakfast was excellent. Great value and quality There is a lift but you have to go up several sets of steps to get to it. Not great if you have mobility issues or heavy bags The spa was out of service for our stay Location great No parking but some parking locally. We went out of season so I think it will be busy in summer. Woudk definitely go again

The room was clean, the hotel areas were nice but I feel that the staff could have been friendlier. It was kind of an awkward feeling and there wasn’t an enthusiasm to help us find where to go or to accommodate any requests. Hotel is beautiful but a little further out from Oban than the other hotels so walking is doable but challenging with rain. Breakfast was good but a little expensive for what you get. Parking is off site and only a few spots on the front area. Off site parking can be full or tight.
