Lovely hotel, great location and good breakfast. Unfortunately, we had a room over the kitchen, and as a result it warmed to 30 degrees and there was little way to cool down and meant we struggled to sleep. The warm weather wasn’t the fault of the property, but unfortunately we couldn’t spend any time in the room due to the way the hotel was laid out. Would return, but would probably specifically request a room elsewhere in the property.

The room was VERY small. So if you’re on a longer visit with lots of luggage the room we were in (#2) would not be able to accommodate you and your luggage. We asked for a king bed but it was a queen and there was no AC on an unusually warm weather day. We were on the first level so the guests who were in the rooms above kept pacing overnight and the noise was loud and prevented us from getting any sleep. The young woman who was our server at breakfast 6/23 was rude and unpleasant which has not been our overall experience throughout Scotland.

Our room faces out the front and had a fantastic view over the loch. Very nice bathroom and well appointed room. It even has American style air conditioning which will cool / dehumidify the room. Just a small note of caution it is an old building so there is no elevator. It is a 18 minute walk to the ferry / train terminal. We organized a cab which was 5 pounds so we did not have to drag out suitcases. Breakfast was included with our booking and it was very good. We will stay here again with our next Oban visit.

A beautiful Inn located a short walk from the main drag in Oban. It's right on the water, and a walkway along the bay takes you into town. The restaurant and bar are good, and very comfortable. The room was very nice, and upgraded. Our particular room was a bit small, but that didn't take away from the comfort and charm.

The hotel and our room was visually well decorated and quirky. Our room was unreasonably hot without the heater even being on. The temperature outside being approximately 13o. We could not open our window as some sort of generator was right outside. Noisey and possibly the source of the heat in our room??
The breakfast was again visually gorgeous and the breakfast selections ample.

Our stay at the hotel was very nice, room was comfortable and the staff extremely pleasant.
we did make a comment re our evening meal but hear no more about it (lasagne was dry)
i have attempted to make contact with the hotel by phone since our stay on the 14th February but no one seems to pick up phone calls.
my query is regarding the addition of VAT added to our bill food and drinks. i did not see any evidence of VAT included or to be added to our bill. my hotel receipt shows at the foot of the bill that \"this is not a VAT invoice but your VAT number is included in your footer.
is this an error on your part or have i missed this.

Clean, stylish. Great breakfast. If I'm nitpicking, the sound of the boiler in room 6 is a bit of a pain; it's really loud and you can clearly hear it rumbling away in the room. We didn't complain, so you could argue it wasn't that bad but if we were there any longer, it might have warranted a conversation with the staff. Despite that, it was a lovely stay and I'd recommend.

Come if you want to pull an all nighter.

I only stayed one night, so can only speak to my experience in room 11. 11. I advise to never stay in room 11:00. Basically it's like sleeping in the shower of the adjacent room. 12. Not especially noisy neighbors, but every move, every gargle, every sentence, every sneeze was amplified by my headboard being 6 in from their bathroom. Number 11 should never have been a room. It was simply impossible to sleep. The next morning they apparently lost my breakfast slip and so there was none. I was very happy to leave.

Absolutely amazing service at this lovely boutique hotel Great lounge with an amazing view of the water where we enjoyed cocktails, fabulous breakfast, and lots of areas to sit and relax. Our room was a little small and at times we heard other guests in the hall, but we played white noise through the supplied Bluetooth speaker and had a great sleep. Lots of hot water. Just a fabulous stay - the service was beyond exceptional. I would absolutely book this hotel again.

The location was perfect. Just a short walk from town. The front patio overlooking the water was wonderful. All the staff was very attentive.

Let me share an example how well the staff is trained.

I start work earlier when travelling for pleasure. I was up and very quietly working in the lounge to avoid bothering my spouse’s sleep.

Within minutes the overnight manager found me and I had an Americano within seconds.

Perfect

It is an older hotel with a decor upgrade. If you have rooms above you, you will be able to hear everything including them walking around in their room. Do not recommend for light sleepers. Room and bathroom are more on the compact side. Wouldn’t recommend for a longer stay as there isn’t really room for suitcases.

The Promenade was an amazing stay! The hotel was absolutely beautiful and thoughtfully decorated. The staff were friendly and very helpful in making sure we enjoyed our stay and the rooms were immaculate. We would love to come back and stay again sometime soon hopefully!

The big bonus for this hotel is the staff, they are very friendly and helpful, plus the room we had was quiet, had a great shower and all the facilities we needed for an overnight stay. It has lovely views from its terrace and we had drinks on it watching the sunset. We also enjoyed our breakfast and dinner at it as well.

This is a gorgeous property. Fun interior design and great restaurant. The service the first night was unpleasant and slightly unfriendly with no help for baggage and no lift. The next mornings service was amazing with a great lady working breakfast.

No17 The Promenade is a lovely boutique hotel. It is located just outside of the center of Oban, a brisk 10 minute walk along the boardwalk from the downtown. The views of the harbor from the lounge and the restaurant are great, the furnishings are colorful and with lots of character and the hotel staff are extremely welcoming and helpful.

The restaurant is fantastic—we loved both our dinner and our breakfast the next morning. We’ll be certain to return!

Absolutely fantastic! We stayed here for 4 nights and every morning they serve you an amazing breakfast. Aysha, who I believe was the managers name, was spectacular and by far the best experience we have had traveling!

Beautiful hotel

We had a great weekend at No 17, could not fault the hotel at all. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. Our room was lovely, equipped with everything you could possibly need. Breakfast was delicious with lots of options to choose from. All in all we had a lovely relaxing time and will definitely be back.

The town itself is wonderful, and the hotel was quite attractive. Unfortunately, there were two serious issues: 1- There was a strong oil smell in the room from cooking, which was off putting, and it seemed as though we were sleeping in a deep fryer, and 2- we were made to feel very uncomfortable during breakfast. We were unaware of any rules to do with ordering, which we had done the night before with no comment from the hostess, so we hoped to share several entrées for our table. Rather than explain in a way that was kind, the hostess repeatedly said that she would have to “drag another table over”, and that she did not want to “food waste” which was heard by other guests, and was embarrassing. In the end, we changed our order, and she no longer made contact with us to ask about our experience, or offer more drinks or additional food if needed. The portions were actually relatively small, but were placed on massive plates, which we were easily able to remediate by putting similar orders on the same plate, for example. We had no problem finishing what we ordered, and we would have been more comfortable had she given us the original order. It was a very uncomfortable experience and we would not return.

Fantastic weekend! Beautiful hotel with lovely attentive staff. We were thoroughly looked after all weekend. The communal rooms are so cosy and the sea view from the lounge and restaurant were stunning. Restaurant food was absolutely delicious and the drinks menu was wonderful. Loved the scottish gin menu. Would definitely come back.

View is beautiful as hotel is on the water. Breakfast is interesting in that you order the night before, but it works well and is excellent. Staff was extremely friendly. Parking is available but limited, so if the hotel is full you will pay for parking unless you arrive between 6pm and 9pm.
