FAQs about hotels in Oban
Gateway to the Inner Hebrides
Oban is a city built around a late 18th-century distillery that produces one of the finest single malt whiskeys in Scotland. This normally peaceful town is invaded during summer when tourists use it as a base to visit the Inner Hebrides islands such as Mull, Lismore and Coll, supporting its status as the Gateway to the Isles.
The horseshoe-shaped Oban Bay is sheltered by Kerrera Island with its spectacular Gylen Castle. Award-winning seafood restaurants and lively pubs line George Street and the waterfront of Corran Esplanade adjacent to the harbour.
Take a short walk up the hill to McCaig’s Tower, a structure based on the Roman Colosseum, for the finest views of Oban’s centre and the outer islands. When you get back down to sea level, stroll into and stumble out of the Oban whiskey distillery after sampling the local version of the 'water of life'.
Admire the coastal scenery as you travel a bit out of town to the 7th-century ruins of Dunollie Castle, home of the Clan MacDougall. The Firth of Lorn gives visitors a fanatstic opportunity to try some sea kayaking.
As the capital of North Argyll, Oban has a great selection of hotels, guest houses and B&Bs available on Booking.com.

Oban is a delightful seaside town that offers very good restaurants, shopping (small shops with nice merchandise) and the ability to enjoy the beauty of the bay and all of its activity. Oban makes a great base for exploring the area of walks/hikes, going out on small boat short duration trips to see wildlife, lots of castles to visit or to take the ferry out to the islands. Taxi service is plentiful as are private tour guides.MelissaUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Bustling little port at centre of Highland area, ferries to outer and inner islands. Train station if no car, plus reasonable bus service to places of interest, eg. Dunstaffnage Castle and Oceanic research facility at Dunbeg etc. Try a ferry visit to Mull and look out for seals , dolphins, etc. Excellent shops and restaurants, all in small scale and within easy walking distance. Lots of points of interest and if weather nice, very hard to beat. Great for Families with young children and Oldies as well.DuncanUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
GORGEOUS little port town.
GORGEOUS little port town. Lots of lovely little shops, an interesting war time museum, and excellent food and drink in the numerous cafes, bars, and restaurants. Easy access to travel by bus, ferries, and trains. Walked (some of us VERY SLOWLY!) up the hill to McCaig's Tower and enjoyed the spectacular views; followed by a delicious late lunch at Cuan Mor.JaniceCanada - 10Scored 10

- 9.4Scored 9.4WonderfulRated wonderful· 643 reviewsJacqueline and Stuart were welcoming, gracious and had genuine concern for the comfort and well-being of their house guests. We visited during very treacherous weather conditions but they were a calming presence and offered good solid advise for our onward travels. If we visit Oban again we will most definitely stay at the Rose Villa Guest house. Our room was well appointed , very clean , offered instant hot water shower and had all the comforts you would expect in a top notch hotel room. Good job Jacqueline and Stuart !!
ThomasCanada - From $223.76 per night7.0Scored 7.0GoodRated good· 1,600 reviewsgood things were hotel location, on site parking, 24 hour reception, room size/layout, en suite had lovely hot shower (over bath), large bar lounge, friendly staff, the breakfast self service buffet on the first floor had a very good varied choice of hot and cold fair and was excellently prepared. Although the hotel including the room were a little bit tired they had character and the package come in at a fair price. I would definitely return to The Royal Hotel if staying in Oban
KevinUnited Kingdom - 9.2Scored 9.2WonderfulRated wonderful· 388 reviewsArdmhor House was by far the best accommodation I had during my week-long holiday in Scotland. The room and facilities were clean, modern, and comfortable, the views were incredible, and the hosts, Morven and Mario, went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. When my train out of Oban was canceled the night before check-out, they were more than happy to let me stow my luggage downstairs in the morning for a few hours. Really could not have had a better experience!CaseyUnited States of America
- From $221.63 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very GoodRated very good· 1,814 reviewsThis is a lovely traditional Scottish hotel. The staff were friendly and attentive. A very nice feel. We enjoyed a lovely evening meal and breakfast in the morning couldn't be faulted. A very comfortable room. Would certainly stay again if we visit Oban in the future. There is a great train service with the station just behind the hotel- Conel- Ferry stop on the Glasgow line or an excellent bus service from Conel- village shop into Oban. The taxi was only £15.HilaryAustralia

- From $223.76 per night7.0Scored 7.0GoodRated good· 1,600 reviewsAfter very bumpy first impression (rejected moldy room, non-existent waitstaff), rest of stay was uneventful. The very new bathrooms are nice (rain shower head, etc.) but the very worn finishes in common areas (fire doors, stair carpeting) make you feel like you’re in the opposite of a royal hotel.AnnUnited States of America
