The Manor House

The staff were very attentive at all times. The property was in immaculate condition

Everything

My wife and I have just returned from three days in the Manor House Hotel. We took advantage of a March promotion. What a welcoming place. Lorna, David, Stephen and Claudia at breakfast couldn’t do enough for us. Our room was elegantly decorated with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom, with walk-in shower, was immaculate. We never actually met the housekeeping staff but they keep the accommodation spotless.
David is very knowledgeable about his wines and spirits and after returning from dinner in the town we enjoyed a bottle of wine with a seat in the lounge by the roaring log fire. On our final night we enjoyed a beautiful plate of Scottish cheeses and charcuterie in the bar.
The hotel has excellent views out over Oban bay and is just a short walk up the hill from the railway station and ferry port.
We couldn’t fault the hotel and are happy to recommend it to anyone looking for a short break in Oban.

The staff, bar and breakfast were all great. And the position looking over the harbour is great.

Really friendly and attentive staff
Full of character, nice living room with a log burning fire
Amazing breakfast!

The staff were lovely, friendly and welcoming. The view was amazing and the breakfast was really good.

The house was very pretty, well cared for, and there were lots of little additions I appreciated like the biscuits in the room, the soaps, selection of teas, and smart TV. I couldnt stay for the breakfast but the facilities looked very good.

The welcome we got from staff was exceptional. The breakfast was fantastic too.

Lovely view, not too far from town centre. Breakfast was superb. Nothing was too much trouble to the staff

Excellent location, close to everything including the ferries. Relaxing lounge and bar areas. Well appointed and presented rooms. Generous home cooked breakfast. Helpful staff. Highly recommend The Manor House.

The staff of the hotel was exceptional. David was an excellent host and provided a great introduction to the Scotch whisky collection in the lounge. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the hotel overlooking Oban is delightful. The ferry terminal and city center were about 8 minutes away on foot.

The hotel is a very short walk into town, yet far enough away, should you wish to enjoy some peace and spectacular views north over Oban Bay.
The cooked breakfast was absolutely superb, topped off with Scotland's finest Stornoway Black Pudding.
The bedroom was spotlessly clean and had a great view over Oban Bay.
The public areas were beautifully decorated and very classy.
The gardens were immaculate and beautifully planted.
The Bar was stocked with some of Scotland's finest Malt Whiskies.
Whilst evening meals are no longer served, we had a cheese selection off the Bar light supper menu. Based on this and the other items offered, we think you could have a perfectly enjoyable evening meal at the hotel, should you not wish to travel the short distance into town.
Most importantly, both Steven and David were spectacular hosts. There was attention to very small details throughout our stay. For example, David gently touched my coffee pot upon service of our breakfast, just enough to see if it was still hot....and it was. This is just a small example of terrific service exhibited by them both.

Outstanding staff: just the right amount of friendliness. Charming.
The breakfast was wonderful: a variety of high quality choices. Lovely breakfast room.
The setting/location was also great: close enough to walk from the train station and into the town center but quiet and peaceful.

The hotel exceeded our expectations and we were delighted with all aspects of our stay. We were only sorry we were only there for one night as we would have loved to sit in the bar and the lounge, but we just didn’t have the time. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. David the Manager really made us feel welcome and we chatted a few times during our stay. His knowledge of the town, and his recommendation of a place to get our evening meal was very helpful. Our room was well furnished, comfortable and warm and we would certainly like to come back again.
