Pros:

Very quiet and isolated location with a wonderful view. The staff were really kind, helpful and friendly.

Cons:

my bed was very uncomfortable and unstable. Every time I moved, the bed was moving too. The mattress also wasn’t flat, so I had a hard time sleeping.

Also, guests were closing the doors very harshly and it was easy to get bothered by normal noise even while everyone was inside their own rooms.

Pros:

The overal facility was great. hotel, staff, service provided etc. The location beside Loch Etive, is incredible. A short drive into Oban and easy parking. Plenty of parking around the hotel.

Ganz okay
Pros:

Gutes Restaurant mit tollen Gerichten. Auch vegetarische Möglichkeiten.

Nettes Personal.
Parkplätze vor dem Haus.

Cons:

Die Gänge sind in die Jahre gekommen, sehr altmodisch.

Wir hatten ein kleines Doppelzimmer gebucht, es war für 2 Personen eindeutig zu klein.

Es gibt keine Alternativen essen zu gehen, kein Geschäft, kein Kaffee.
