My room was small, but bathroom was very spacious. Owner kept my fridge stocked with breakfast items. Fridge needs to be colder. Wifi could be better. Other wise it was perfect. I liked that is was clean and quite. Old house was very cute. Guests were reading in the upstairs louge. If you have a car, there didnt appear to be any parking. Ower kept to himself a bit, but very friendly. I've been to Scotand 12 times, so I'm very independent. My local tour guide friend stayed nearby at Royal hotel, and his hotel was very hot and noisy (this B&B was close in price and way better than royal hotel).

A perfect B&B, gorgeous rooms and meticulously cleaned. Breakfast is small but good, the host is helpful and welcoming. The only downside is that it’s quite high up above town, the walk is a bit nasty, but a lovely view.

Had a lovely 1 night stay at Blair Villa. It is a cute little b&b style hotel that is located up a small hill, a couple minutes walk away from Oban town centre.

We were welcomed in the property by a lovely host who promptly checked us in and gave us the room key.

The rooms were very clean and spacious with a very modern bathroom. We also had a small bag of breakfast items left in the rooms mini fridge, which was a lovely touch.

Overall me and my wife had a lovely stay at Blair Villa and we would definitely recommend it and would stay there again.

We had a lovely stay. It was really convenient to walk into town. The breakfast in the fridge was amazing considering we had early starts! And we found parking right outside. The decor is really nice too. You can tell it's a labour of love.

Only reason I dock a star is because the mattress wasn't great for 2 people to sleep on. If one person moves around the other one moves too so it was hard to get to sleep. The duvet was also excessively warm for summer even with the fan running. We had to take it out and just use the cover.

We were initially taken aback by the steep, and narrow hill on which the B&B is situated. Parking was limited, so we ended up in a car park in town. After dragging our luggage up to the residence, we were out of breath. Inside, more steps up to the room. And, oh, what a room. Not large, but lovingly kitted out with Victoria-era style fittings. The pillows are a tad thick and firm. Hard to on the neck. We slept nine hours! Breakfast is a to-go bag in a tiny in-Rom fridge. Bananas, granola bars, cheese, croissants, yogurt, and juice. More than adequate. Overall, a surprise, and a delight.

We loved staying here. Lovely hosts, so quaint, and gorgeous interiors with good amenities. Delighted to have a fridge, and to have the fridge filled with snacks. Parking is a challenge as the property is on a steep hill, and it's quite a steep walk to get to and from restaurants for anyone who might have limitations. It was the nicest place we stayed in whilst in Scotland.

Absolutely lovely place to stay. My husband and I stayed for just 2 nights before tying the knot in Appin. We arrived early and didn’t expect to be able to check in until the booked time, but they went out of their way to accommodate us early. The room was very nice and clean, and the whole property was gorgeous, beautifully decorated and has amazing character - also with a fantastic view! They also supplied our room with tea, coffee and a mini fridge pre-stocked with some breakfast/snacks! The property is quite close to everything, we were able to walk everywhere we needed to go in Oban from the property! We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay!

Staying in Oban is challenging - the location of Blair Villa is a benefit and a liability, depending on how you see it - located on the highest road atop the town, it doesn't have any noise or neighbor issues, but you might not want to climb the hill after a evening's merriment. The room was comfortable but small, with breakfast offered in a takeaway bag rather than a buffet, and everything seemed well kept although we didn't get to chat with the owner much.

Check in was nice and easy. There is parking on the street and we were lucky to find a space right in front of the B&B but there are only about 6 spots so you might end up parking a ways away and having to walk. Our room was quite small, to the point where we couldn't have our luggage open and move around the room. The breakfast is a to-go bag of yogurt, croissants and a couple snack bars, so if you are wanting a fresh made meal, this is not the place for you. The gentlemen who checked us in was helpful in pointing us to short cuts through the city, so that was nice. There was nothing wrong with this B&B, I just probably wouldn't stay here again.
