The Pier Rooms

Guests appreciate the exceptional cleanliness and maintenance of the rooms and facilities. The central location is ideal for accessing the ferry and offers good value for short stays.

This was cheapest room I Oban I could find at short notice that wasn't a dorm or a hotel with terrible reviews. Access to hotel room via link in email (hadn't met this sort of thing before, but it all worked ok after a bit of fiddling); red, black and grey decor pretty strange esp glowy red light under bed (which thankfully you can switch off)! You don't meet any staff - it's a moduler hotel, there are no windows in the rooms, although the air-com works really well. Bathroom ensuite, great shower, nice and clean. I was £89 for one night. Location is literally 20 seconds away from the railway station on one side and the ferry terminal on the other. NO KETTLE though - which is a lack, especially in the evening when cafes all closed - though they do provide you with a bottle of mineral water. Free wifi, large TV in rooms (which you can connect via bluetooth to headphones). Pretty noisy with doors slamming, people coming and going, but I slept fine once it quietened down. To state the obvious, the room is pretty dark, given the lack of windows....but I slept fairly well. Was glad to get out into the fresh air the following morning though.
