It was close to the water and old town area so walking was fairly easy…. a little uphill but manageable.
Pros:

Clean, comfy!

Cons:

It was difficult to find the hotel and the small parking lot. It was kinda scary trying to get into the parking lot… small, awkward entrance.

Lovely location overlooking the harbour, and lovely staff.
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently located to walk into Oban town centre, about 10 minutes stroll downhill. The beds were very comfortable, and the room and bathroom were modern, and spacious. The staff were very friendly, with special thanks for letting me watch the Scotland world cup game in the early hours in the TV lounge,. The car park was very convenient on site, and free, and I didn't find it too cramped at all, as long as you can reverse park !

Cons:

The hotel is close to a main road, but the noise wasn't overbearing. There is no cooked breakfast option, but this was known, and we planned around it, eating at local cafes.

Fine for an overnight stay
Pros:

The staff member we met was really nice and helpful. The location of the hotel is close to the town but be warned, if you have fitness or lung issues it is quite a hill to climb on the return journey.
The view from the sitting room was lovely out over the bay.

Cons:

The bedrooms and the beds were rather small. Breakfast was of the 'packed' variety if you wished to avail of it.
