Best Oban Hotels

"the stay was decent. What stands out from all the similar properties is really really really good bed (double bed turned out to more of a superking), nice size tv (50+ inch), sockets with USB are a bonus. interior design is subjective to taste but its not my priority at this price. I guess one can highlight fresh furniture. Bathroom: Clean shower, standard number of towels and shower mat, hair drier, heated towel rack, shampoo/soap/body lotion and soap bar. Waiting staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast: the breakfast is usual full Scottish breakfast variety buffet, (fried eggs, black pudding, hashbrowns, scones, sausages, bacon, beans) with plenty condiments available as well as 3 types of toast, couple of cheeses and hams, fruit salad, yoghurts, various sweet pastries. Full set of teas, jams honeys etc, but coffee could be a little better, but again cannot complaint at price. The hotel it is definitely underrated. While some things around hotel are a little flimzy, dusty, it is very decent value. it all fades away when you realise how nice it is to have a fresh large bed and that it is basically minutes away from ferry terminal. Great views are come as a big bonus. Note for parking: very limited, but you can park at council carpark not far away at reasonable cost."

"Location was convenient - a little off the busiest part of the town but still walkable especially to the pier and restaurants."

"It is very centrally located with Tesco, M n S big supermarkets just round the corner 5 minutes walk away. Some Car park spaces in front good for free parking after 6 pm to 9 am. For cheapest whole day parking, 7.50 pound can be found near the ferry pier, about 7 mins walk from hotel. Easy access to all restaurants. Reception is within the bar in Ranald Hotel with manned staff until 11pm. Cons in room, water shower not consistent in temperature, no washing machine and room lightings can feel too dark. But maybe a lot of lightings in that area are like that… But all in all will recommend. Comfortable."

"I can't tell you about my stay as I booked the wrong dates. As soon as I found out, I phoned The Oyster Inn to cancel but because I used Trip.com, they said there was nothing they could do. I cancelled on Trip.com and the message said that they'd contacted the hotel to confirm if it was ok to cancel FOC. According to trip.com, no response was forthcoming so my booking was not cancelled. My booking has since been ”completed”. When I contacted the hotel the following day to ask why they had not approved the cancellation, they said trip.com had simply asked for info, not to approve cancellation. Who is lying? Suffice to say, I will not use trip.com again and have decided to stay elsewhere in Oban."

"We booked 2 rooms 1 night last minute booking. I got Junior suite for me & my husband. Room is very spacious for UK standard, sea view is very beautiful Seaview. The hotel has lift thats very good for travelers with many luggages.The room is a little cold so we switched on spare small heater which is warm enough. Their specialist amenities are very good. Whisky Honey. Oh.our room door isn't working, that's pretty scary."

"Have stayed in lots of other Premier Inns before and had lovely experiences. This one was ok but the parking left us feeling a little disappointed. First night we stayed there was enough free parking for the amount of guests and everything was great. We went out for the day as you do and when we came back we found 4 road workers lorries parked sideways across and taking up at least 14 spaces in total. There were work vans parked in the disabled bays, in the passenger drop off bays, you name it, there was a works can parked in it. When we queried what we were supposed to do we got told just use the on street parking down the road as it's free between 6pm and 9am. We said about the vans parking is out of order and they said ”Well unless they are guests and have registered their vehicles there is nothing we can do!” So there went our nice relaxing morning, taking our time to pack up and leave to drive the 6 hours back home because we had to be out and away by 9am or face charges!"

"The hotel is 100 meters away from the train station, pier, long-distance bus station. It is also 100 meters away from the most famous seafood hall, which is very convenient. The hotel is very quiet. Facing the sea, you can see the pier and the sunset, it is beautiful."

"Classic style, very clean, very nice staff, highly recommended sunset on the terrace"
