Hotel bem localizado e com bom quarto
Pros:

A localização é boa, próxima ao centro turístico da cidade. O quarto é confortável e espaçoso. Há um bom estacionamento no local.

Cons:

Ficamos em um quarto no segundo andar e o prédio não tem elevador. Foi muito desconfortável subir com as malas.

This was a single night stay, wish we had an extra night.
Pros:

Nice modern bright apartment, spotless bedding and towels, large comfy beds and great shower. Basic provide tea, coffe milk etc. Nice bar to have a drink at on site staff very friendly.

Cons:

You had to walk past the bottom of one of the beds to get to the bathroom as family OK for us, but if with friends may seem a little odd. Some folk might prefer a microwave to be provided although the oven was a good.

Perfect location
Pros:

Lovely staff and helpful.
One of the few hotels in Oban with car parking.
Excellent location.

Cons:

Price was maybe a little steep, could of been £30-£40 less for the room and facilities offered.
However i appreciate its peak season and its not a huge issue.

Mooie lokatie, maar heeft nog wen verbeterpunt
Pros:

Ontbijt was goed, maar aan de dure kant.
Lokatie is goed, midden in het gezelige stadje met een eigen parkeerplaats. Een must voor onze motoren

Cons:

De vloer van het gebouw kraakt enorm. Wij hadden de pech dat de kamer boven ons die pwrsoon vanaf 4 uur am al aan het lopen was. Dus we hebben geen oog meer dicht gedaan.

Pros:

We liked the size of the room, the comfortable bed, and modern bathroom. The staff were friendly. Parking is available but costs £10/night.

Cons:

Our room faced the street, which is very busy with queues towards the harbour. So, we needed to keep the windows closed (the double glazing dealt with the noise).
Breakfast is not included in the price. Hence, by adding breakfasts and parking, costs become comparable to higher ranked accommodations.

L’ideale per una notte
Pros:

Struttura nuova o appena ristrutturata
Camera poco spaziosa ma con tutto il necessario
Letto comodo e bello morbido
Bagno un po’ piccolo ma con tutto il necessario
Colazione (a pagamento, 14 £) a buffet dolce e salata migliorabile

Cons:

Mancherebbe un armadio dove riporre i vestiti e qualche mensola nel bagno dove riporre beauty case, spray, ecc

Pros:

Room,staff, lounge.

Cons:

Breakfast options poor,no fruit salad ,just a few ripe bananas,a few apples and tangerines
If you didn't want an English Breakfast then only porridge or yogurt. No ham or cheese or nice bread.
Pan bread,obviously the cheapest, stodgy croissants. £14.95 pricey for what was on offer..

£10 per day to park in hotel car park!
