Pros:

We liked the whole experience. Loved the old Georgian features. The view from our lovely old-style bedroom window gave us beautiful panoramas over Oban bay, especially lovely at sunset. We loved the noise of the boats passing in and out. The outdoor seating area with the view out the back is so relaxing. Breakfast was lovely. The dining room is beautiful with its old features and we loved sitting next to the old Georgian range.
My partner booked this for my 60th birthday, and we both enjoyed our stay - the staff were so helpful and friendly.

Cons:

We would change nothing.

Perfect
Pros:

Property is immaculate which is fabulous given the age of the building. David and staff were equally immaculate and couldn’t have made any more effort to make us feel welcome and at home.

A stunning traditional Scottish small hotel.
Pros:

The Manor House Oban offers a cosy, historic and authentic atmosphere
The decor in the dining room, bar and lounge area is stunning and very traditional.
Our bedroom (8) was just as beautifully presented, comfortable and spotlessly clean throughout.
A hearty Scottish breakfast was served along with other less traditional, but just as tasty alternatives.
Staff were warm, welcoming and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
Stunningly situated, overlooking Oban bay, the views were spectacular.
I would love to return one day and can highly recommend The Manor House Oban

Highly recommended!
Pros:

We stayed at Manor House for 2 nights and absolutely loved it. From the moment we arrived until we left, every member of staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive.
The house is not only beautiful from the outside, but also decorated inside with so much care and attention to detail. We’ve rarely seen such a lovely B&B. The lounge area with the fireplace is especially worth mentioning — definitely enjoy a drink there in the evening. David in particular can recommend the perfect drink and clearly has a lot of expertise!
Our room (number 5) had a stunning view over the bay. It was spotless, and for women with long hair: the shower had excellent water pressure, which is always a bonus!
The location is also great — very close to the town centre and the port, both only about a 5–10 minute walk away.
We would absolutely stay here again anytime!

Excellent accommodation close to facilities but far enough away to be quiet.
Pros:

Small and friendly. Close to the town centre ferries and train station. Breakfast was exceptional

Cons:

The evening meal was limited in choice and we decided to eat in town
