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.

    Jacqueline 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 !!

    Ardmhor 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!

    Being on your own always means a small room, but it was comfortable and provided what I needed. The hotel's cleanliness was great and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast cost a little extra on my booking but was excellent and served up speedily. The location is good, slightly away from the often crowded centre but still near enough, and with an excellent view overlooking Oban bay with glorious sunsets while I was there,

    Dungallan Country House is our favorite property in northern Scotland. Amazing location and views from the grounds as well as the room. The hosts, Simon and Kristy, are truly making sure that you are feeling at home at all times. Very comfortable rooms, modern bathrooms, and a wonderful breakfast every morning are adding to the allure of the property. We very highly recommend Dungallan Country House for your next stay in Oban.

    First time in our 2weeks in Scotland that a porter kindly offered to carry our cases to our room on the first floor. The receptionist was exceptionally helpful. Breakfast and the service was good and well organized. The bed was comfortable. There was a restaurant that served evening meals and food of good quality. Although the hotel was situated near a main road, we were not disturbed by noise. The ferry terminal was close by.

    Just home from a wonderful two days up in Oban staying at Kenavara House. The room was modern and immaculate and really liked the small touches like the bottle of wine left for my partner and myself. The hotel is central to the main street where you will find bars and restaurants along with lots of amenities. 10/10 and will definitely be back to stay at Kenavara House.

    We loved the rooms which had an excellent view of the bay and ferry boats arriving and leaving Oban. We loved the spacious bathroom, bedroom and small room to eat breakfast. We liked the nice snacks that were left in the room and the location of Mackays in the town. The bed was comfortable also. It was great that we were able to park at the hotel.

    Location - first decent hotel I have found in this area of Oban - the hotels with a view have for many years been badly run down and disappointing. Congratulations to this chain in realising some of the potential of the site. Also availability of single rooms with view very welcome.

    Charming hotel. Remarkable location. Very helpful staff. It is a Victorian hotel, and yes, it shows its age. It served every one of my expectations. If one wants something more modern, stay in the Hilton. Highly recommended.
