Location
Very disappointing stay – not what we expected from a 4-star hotel
My partner and I stayed at the Oyster Inn in Connel for one night. Given that it is advertised as a 4-star hotel, in a very popular tourist area on Scotland’s west coast, we expected a considerably better standard of accommodation and, at the very least, a decent night’s sleep.
Unfortunately, the room itself was disappointing from the moment we entered. There was an unpleasant smell which we can only describe as being like old or wet feet. The general condition of the room also fell well below what we would expect. There were numerous stains and marks on the carpet, scuffs and marks on the walls, chipped and peeling paint/plaster, staining and marks in the bathroom, and areas around the shower that appeared to need further cleaning and maintenance. We took photographs showing a number of these issues.
We had intended to raise some of our concerns about the room earlier in the day and tried to speak to someone at reception, but there was nobody there.
Later, we went downstairs for dinner, which we had booked, only to discover that the restaurant was closed. We had received no prior notification that the restaurant itself would be closed.
As there was again nobody at reception, we went into the bar and spoke to a female member of staff. She confirmed that the restaurant was closed but told us that we could sit in the bar and eat our meal there that evening.
Our biggest problem, however, was the noise and the disturbance to our sleep.
At approximately 11:15pm, the music coming from downstairs became noticeably louder. The volume appeared to vary between tracks — louder during one track and quieter during another — but it continued while we were trying to sleep.
I checked on my phone what time the bar was shown as closing and it stated 11pm. As it was approaching 11:40pm and the music was still disturbing us, my partner went downstairs to ask for it to be turned down.
Beautiful hotel in an excellent location, the room was lovely with a fantastic view, the staff were wonderful and the food was lovely.
The one small downside is that the restaurant and bar are one and the same and as the place is very popular ( rightly so, it's lovely ), there isn't anywhere you can sit and just have a drink before or after your meal.
Overnight stayvon way to Mull.
Excellent food, first class service.
Room looked a little tired...in need of redecoration.
The Hotel staff and management were were very attentive to guests.
Were helpful when asked about tourist places.
Friendly staff and the other guests were too.
The food was very good and the staff very friendly.
Our room which was 16 was a bit tired and would benefit from an update.

Friendly Staff
Break fast
I would have liked my room to be but more modern like the lake view rooms
Amazing hotel with one of the best viens ever!
Lovely room with great views across the bay. The en-suite bathroom was excellent with a walk-in shower.
The room could do with nets across the windows as it was on street level and anyone passing can look in unless the blackout curtains are drawn.
Location. Restaurant. Sea view. Great staff. Very helpful and friendly. Comfortable bed.
No shelves in bathroom or hooks to hang towels. . Slight odour in bathroom. Sound proofing inadequate.
La struttura è molto bella e accogliente, l’hotel è affacciato sul mare. La nostra stanza era piccolina ma molto accogliente e aveva tutto ciò di cui necessitavamo.
Lo staff è stato molto gentile e ci siamo trovati benissimo al pub, abbiamo mangiato benissimo!
Consigliamo tantissimo questa struttura😊
Breakfast staff were really good, breakfast itself hit the spot
Room was dated and needed a little refurbishment

Handy for Oban. Good parking.
Food good.
Signage for finding our room.
Die Lage war gut - etwas außerhalb von Oban - und das Essen hervorragend! Leider funktionierte die Fernbedienung für den TV nicht - auch nicht, nachdem wir es reklamiert hatten. Der defekte Fön wurde hingegen direkt ausgetauscht.
