The location is outstanding and 2 min walk to centre of Oban. Maybe needs a Chest of drawers in room, stayed in room 7, bit smaller than last stay in room 4, however great for short stays. Nice and clean and again it's in a great location and also has free parking.

Great place to stay in Oban, fairly close to the action in the town, so was an easy walk. Very clean room. Bathroom was extremely small but very new and very clean. Entry and stairs were welcoming and easy to navigate. Would recommend for a short stay.

Tiny room, no hanging space for clothes apart from back of bathroom door. If you get a space in the car park your lucky 8 rooms 5 spaces paid parking outside 4 hrs only. Lots of damage to walls in the room and scuff marks so it looked scruffy more like student accommodation. Overwhelming smell of bleach so we left bathroom vent on and window open when we went out.

I recently stayed at the Raniven Guesthouse in Oban, and overall, the experience was quite pleasant. The room and bathroom were both modern and clean, which was a big plus. The bed was comfortable, and everything else in the guesthouse was in good order. However, there were some issues with accessing the property. There was no check-in information provided in advance, which caused some frustration. Upon arrival, there was no in-person check-in available. When we tried to contact the guesthouse directly for assistance, the person on the phone was quite unfriendly and not helpful at all. Apparently, our travel agency did not provide us with the code for the key box. Nevertheless, the response during the call was rather unprofessional. Additionally, no information was provided regarding the check-out process, so we ended up just leaving the key in the key box when we left. In summary, while the guesthouse itself is comfortable and well-maintained, the customer service could definitely be improved.

We stayed here from 30th August to 2nd september.for my son's wedding at dunollie castle. The.location was perfect and it was a lovely guesthouse. Only downside was room was quite small so there wasn't much room to move about. We would definitely stay again, but would book a bigger room.

Quiet street with plenty of amenities. 3 minutes to the harbour. Comfy beds, clean and good water pressure. Stayed with two teenagers who had a twin to themselves and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Instructions were clear and the on site cleaning staff were very friendly and helpful.
