Absolutely disgusting would definitely not recommend staying here at all. The room for my elderly parents was a disgrace

Stay in Oban
Actually stayed next door so cannot review the Arbour Guest house
No breakfast was included
Room was small but adequate
Unusual layout with the sink next to the bed

Sorry to say, but there was really absolutely nothing we liked about this place. From the staff to the room, to noisy disturbances for the whole night. everything was horrible. At least they could avoid vacuum cleaning at 8.00 AM on a Sunday just in front of the room. Sorry. Just try to avoid this property.

The room had an ensuite, though it was a bit cramped. The bed was okay, but a bit soft for me.
You had an option of a continental breakfast, but the breakfast room was at another associated property 2 doors down.
It was within walkimg distance of the town centre.

Worst hotel
Worst hotel ive ever stayed at
The room was tiny bed broke.
Washing machine banging at 7am
Hear every word from another room
Tv size of a tablet
Mold in bathroom
Bed stunk
Honestly worst 2 nights ive ever had
Phoned the reception to say no hot water
The reply i had (are you sure because no one else complained)
Had no shower in the morning
And it was back in after i complained in the after

Large clean room with shared bathroom (it wasn’t clear this was the case when booking, but the other room was unoccupied). Fantastic location, quiet. Good value for money.

Please ignore the negative reviews about Arbour Guest house Oban. We found it to be excellent value for money. Our check in was easy and with a friendly reception. As most guest houses I have stayed in since the 60's it has a shared bathroom, not en suite or it would be a hotel. Our room was more than adequate on the first floor which was clean as was the bathroom. Perfect location for everything you need. We travelled from France, but if we was ever in Oban in the future we will stay again. One I would change are the curtains, they did let the morning sunshine in. So not a lot to complain about really.

The property is spotlessly clean, kudos to the cleaners !
We were asked to pay cash on arrival as the payment machine was not working. Elaine who attended our arrival and was very nice and helpful. The property is in a very convenient location and very handy for shopping, restaurants and the watersedge where the Ferries depart and arrive.
