Very comfortable rooms, excellent location.
Pros:

Location was excellent, short walk to the ferry, train station, and buses. Great for a traveler using public transport rather than a car.

Cons:

I did not include meals in my stay. I found it odd that I would have to make breakfast reservations through the front desk. Fortunately, there were many great alternatives to choose from within easy walking distance.

Jederzeit wieder
Pros:

Für einen Besuch in Oban ist 'The Perle' natürlich DER Hotel Tipp. Wunderschön gelegen, direkt am Hafen. Unbedingt ein Zimmer mit Sea View buchen, das lohnt sich.
Das Zimmer war sehr grosszügig und bestens eingerichtet. Sehr freundlicher Service überall

Cons:

'The Perle' ist sicher kein Schnäppchen, aber das Preis / Leistungsverhältnis ist ok. Die Parkplatz Situation beim Hotel eher kritisch
