Kevin
Stayed one night and had the car valet parked. The car was on time in the morning. Pub in the hotel was excellent and our breakfast was just right. As Americans, we are used to huge breakfasts but this was a great change from feeling over stuffed! Hotel was right on the water with amazing views! Highly recommend a stay at Oban Bay Hotel!
David
Second time here and was as good as the first time. Great location and views. Nice food and great bar
Emma
My first time at the Oban Bay Hotel. I used the valet parking service for my car which I found very helpful. There is a free car park nearby though if people prefer.
The evening meal I ordered in the bar was lovely and I had a view of the ferries coming and going.
I wasnt able to book in for the time I wanted for breakfast which was a shame but I appreciated the breakfast to go they arranged for me so that I could catch my ferry to Mull in the morning.
The room was really cosy and quiet. I appreciated the Tunnocks treats left in the room for me too. I had a great night's sleep.
I wouldnt hesitate to book again in the future. The staff were all very helpful and friendly too.

1st class service and exceptional quality of food, amazing place.
Becky
The hotel was quaint and charming, a little old in places but nothing major. The staffs were extremely helpful and pleasant. The location was great. Breakfast was delicious, we also had dinner there and it was wonderful, other than they did not cook my steak correctly, but they took it off the bill, which is great customer service.
Ashby
Perfect! So glad we booked here!! Great location, lounge areas to eat, drink, and enjoy the view. We also enjoyed the view from our room. Very clean rooms with space for 2 people. Food was so-so. 3 of us ordered medium rare steak for dinner and all three steaks were cooked well done. Other than that, it was a perfect vacation.
Melanie
Disorganized desk and unsanitary cleaning practices.
Denise
I sat down before a party of 12 did and waitress got their orders first. Then took another tables order before me. Bed was hard. Phone to receprion did not work. Toilet had very little room to sit down without knees hitting shower glass. No hair dryer and shower handles did not work conveniently. The soap in tower container would not dispense. Side of fruit swrved before breakfast came in the appearance of a soup. The french toast was good. The bed duvet was warm.
Maureen
Pristine bedding, room felt clean, staff were lovely, very good breakfast menu,.
Glass terrace overlooking the bay was spectacular, wished we knew the tables there were bookable.

Elegant, clean stay, wonderful staff, and delicious gin and tonics!!! Can't wait to come back.
mary
The restaurant was wonderful and the view and proximity to the harbor was amazing! It is an old building and we requested a twin room. The bathroom was pretty tight and the television was placed so low only one person could see it. But overall the experience was lovely.
Seonaid
Lovely hotel with amazing views. Staff are so lovely and helpful. Food beautiful and amazing breakfast. Lovely hotel to relax and enjoy Oban

Breakfast was excellent. Great value and quality
There is a lift but you have to go up several sets of steps to get to it. Not great if you have mobility issues or heavy bags
The spa was out of service for our stay
Location great
No parking but some parking locally. We went out of season so I think it will be busy in summer.
Woudk definitely go again

5 min. Walk to the centre of Oban. Beautiful views. Lovely clean rooms staff very polite and welcoming. Perfect hotel
Louise
Lovely hotel in a great location. The glass fronted lounge was the perfect spot to sit at any time of day. Comfortable rooms and delicious breakfast. We will definitely return to this hotel.
Camden
The room was clean, the hotel areas were nice but I feel that the staff could have been friendlier. It was kind of an awkward feeling and there wasn’t an enthusiasm to help us find where to go or to accommodate any requests. Hotel is beautiful but a little further out from Oban than the other hotels so walking is doable but challenging with rain. Breakfast was good but a little expensive for what you get. Parking is off site and only a few spots on the front area. Off site parking can be full or tight.
Angela
Great
Ruairidh
Pet friendly, beautiful views over oban bay and only a short walk into the centre of Oban.
William
Had a very long wait for breakfast to be served..
Arrived at dinning room 9.15am , no option to serve yourself to cereal and waited over 15mins for them to bring a boxed cereal of our choice. Then after taking our hot breakfast choice it finally got served at 10.30am. rather disappointing.
Also car parking is very limited at hotel

Staff are fabulous but hotel could be better. TV in room did not work for the duration of our stay. Paid extra for a bay view room but the room was tiny. Breakfast was great. Restaurant food good too, if a little pricey.

Susan

James
Staff were really nice
Emma
Lace panties on the radiator and lumpy bed. We've stayed at this hotel before and it's a great location. Disappointed that the advertised Hot Tub was £50 per couple! That's not how it used to be. Then we found the knickers in the radiator. Clean presumably and left to dry? Who knows. Sadly to top it all was that the bed was lumpy! All in all there are good things about this hotel. Great view, staff were friendly but for the price it's not hitting the mark.
COLIN
Nice clean room great shower and cracking breakfast
Mark
Great location with simple EV charging on site, nice clean room great staff
Janice
Lovely room
Bill
The food was excellent particularly for a Seafood fanatic. The only thing the chef should consider is adding a seafood soup. Everything else is 5 star.
Alison
The staff were friendly and welcoming, lots of conversation and humour. The food was good, we tried a few different options. The avocado and poached egg on sourdough was delicious and the pastries were fresh and so good.
We had a classic double room on the ground floor. Plenty of space for the 2 of us, the shower was fab and toiletries were very refreshing. We had the best 2 nights sleep. The bed was huge and very comfy. The tea, coffee, hot chocolate and goodies were a perfect treat with 2 days of travelling and exploring. What a view while we enjoyed our drinks from the bar. Oban was such a lovely place and we wouldn't hesitate to book here again on return.

Property fine, staff generally good. Expensive. Room had marks all over floor ( needs vax) parking facilities poor. £4.50 for 1/2 cup of coffee is not good value. Rooms are too full of chairs etc , not required. Obviously throw to back of hotel to make room for Americans so they spend more .
Frank
The lift was not functioning but stay did bring bags to the room. A challenge with older hotel infrastructure is that many many step are required to get to a room. No lift meant 40 steps up and 40 steps down.
Matthew
We booked this hotel specifically for the private spa. Ideally it would be a little more private but it was a lovely experience overall.

Robert
Beautiful view of the bay. Great location to explore the town. Parking is extremely limited but public parking is only a few minute walk
Thomas
Bad parking. Challenging to get to the room
Anne
It was comfortable and the dinner and breakfast was lovely. We had a dog and while the hotel was welcoming, our room was a very long way from the exit and also very small to accommodate a dog crate.
Parking at the hotel is non existent unless you pay £20 per night for valet parking, which for a 4* hotel is unacceptable.
In addition, the check-in process was painfully slow. Only one person on the desk and dozens of visitors waiting.
The restaurant staff were mostly very nice, but some were quirky and over-familiar. Not a great impression for a 4* hotel. There is an amateurish feel about the Oban Bay Hotel. It trades on its seafront position along with many other similar mid-range hotels aspiring to 4* and falling short. It might have been once- not any more.

This location is beautiful and the hotel was amazing!
Only downfall is everything is accessed by stairs which is hard with heavy suitcases.

Initial impressions not good. I knew no parking on site, but drop off area chaotic. Steps to entrance and more steps and long way to lift (not sure how disabled would cope.) However staff friendly, room ok. Comfortable bed, decent breakfast and nice views of bay outside
Joanne
Very poor value for money
Sorry to say I felt incredibly ripped off here. The decor was shoddy, the mattresses lumpy, the service lackadaisical. Litter and only instant coffee available in the room. Oh, and residents, incredibly, have to pay to use the spa which when you are paying over £200 a room is not what you expect.Good value is hard to find on the west coast of Scotland in August but really, I wish I’d gone to the Premier Inn.
Mark
Just an overnight - but in the price we paid we did expect a breakfast to be included (in fact we did think it was until confirmation came through)!
Mark
Fabulous stay !
Beautifullly situated hotel with amazing views over the water with lovely seating area to enjoy the scenery.
Small, but comfortable clean room.
Delicious breakfast served in no time.
Staff were friendly and professional and their uniforms were so smart.
Highly recommend this hotel, we’d definitely return.

The Gem of Oban
The chef and the floor staff in the hotel restaurant should be complimented on their food, appearance and attention to detail. Just amazing keep up the fabulous work. The bar and lobby entrance sharp and sophisticated , I must say a special mention to the front bar with view over the bay. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed and decorated. For those with fur friends - there is a doggy wall of fame
Andre
e real gem in Oban- comfortable homey feel, great staff, and a breakfast that should not be missed! Also has an impressive Spa but I did not use it.
Annalisa
Lots of steps and no elevator to get to the room
Steve
The rooms are a little plain and small for the cost. Very good bedding linens.
Moira
Friendly staff and great location
Mary Ann
Upon returning to our room after a long day of viewing the beautiful sites of Mull and Iona we found the room had not been serviced. When we inquired we were told the \"do not disturb\" sign was on our door. It was not! We asked for a fresh supplys of coffees, etc. It took three trys to get it. The worst part was the staff was argumentative about the do not distrub sign. It put a damper on a beautiful day.
Timothy
Good comfortable stay great staff
Great views, bar and restaurant staff were great! Small but comfortable room. No AC so it got warm the days we were there. Bathroom and shower was decent.

reat Location, But Needs Attention to Detail
The Oban Bay Hotel has a fantastic location—stunning views, easy access to the waterfront, and within walking distance of the town’s best attractions. For that alone, it’s a convenient choice for exploring Oban.
However, our recent family stay revealed some serious housekeeping and maintenance issues. Stained carpets, worn furniture, and a general lack of upkeep in rooms and common areas made the stay feel less comfortable than expected. For a hotel with such potential, a refresh in cleanliness and maintenance would go a long way.
Additionally, while the reception staff weren’t outright rude, they often seemed indifferent or unengaged, even when approached politely (as our family always did). A warm smile, proactive assistance, and basic customer service training would significantly improve the guest experience. Hospitality is about making people feel welcome, and that starts with friendly, attentive staff.
With some investment in upkeep and staff training, this could be a truly lovely hotel. As it stands, the location is its strongest asset—but the rest needs work.

I spent two nights in the Oban Bay Hotel - it’s in a beautiful location overlooking the sea front which is ideal for watching all the ferries coming and going. The staff were all helpful and friendly with a good sense of humour. The breakfasts were excellent and the French toast, bacon and maple syrup with the addition of vanilla ice cream was certainly a first for me and surprisingly delicious!! I would happily return for another break in the future.
Paul

Fantastic hotel.
What a lovely hotel. Stayed for 2 nights to celebrate my brothers birthday. We used the thermal spa experience. Great to use the outside hot tub. Very friendly staff and personable staff. Great value for money. We're definitely going back. There's lots more to see. Thanks you to everyone who made our stay a memorable one
David
Short break
We really enjoyed our 2 day break in this hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is lovely and spotlessly clean. The veiws from the lounge are beautiful. My only disappointment was the breakfast, everything else was perfect.

Very dog friendly & reason for booking. Lovely view from verander & front conservatory seating. Short drive to Ganavan Sands which is a lovely sandy beach with loos & a catering van.
Comfortable bed & decent shower.
There is valet parking but I didn’t book it & glad not to as it’s only about 4 spaces in a small area behind main hotel building. Voices of people speaking there carry very loudly to bedrooms overlooking it.
There are a couple disabled spaces & a couple of charging spaces only at front. You can park whilst unloading luggage. Otherwise hotel recommended the free parking behind the scout hut behind the cathedral a short uphill walk away. I parked there for a few hours & so little space to manoeuvre to get out that I didn’t bother again. I found that after hours parking in a space about 100 meters along seafront is free overnight. By putting in my card I discovered it only cost me 20p to park until 910 am next morning. I couldn’t find a way to get the completely free overnight ticket but I think wardens don’t start til 9am anyway.
Hotel food was great quality. We had afternoon snacks on the outside veranda, a lovely evening meal & breakfast in the conservatory restaurant. Dogs are ok everywhere in public areas except the grill room.
Really v dog friendly. Wld recommend for dog owners.

Janet
Totally unsuitable for a person with a disability. Too may stairs, very small rooms. Bathroom so small knees touched the shower doors when sitting on the toilet. Lift has doors that close too quickly. My husband would be half way out, walking with a walker and get hit by the doors despite my efforts to keep them open. Beautiful views from the front but we were in the back over a car park. I had asked for accessible room and was not told they had none.
Jana
It is a lovely refined property , with attentive helpful staff.
We arrived an hour before Check-in, waited 30 minutes for our room to be ready, then checked in. We were surprised with an early checkin fee as we checked out. I don't like surprise fees this should have been explained up front

Quick overnight stay. Hotel was extremely busy with an event going on. Massive crowds of people while trying to check in all through the lobby and bar area. Did dine in and instead of being in the normal restaurant area we were in the area behind the bar overlooking the water, this was fabulous- view and sunset were beautiful. Food was excellent. Hotel is dated and needs some freshening up. Room was ok but toilet was not clean in our room and carpet was gross. A room near ours had room service tray on floor outside of their door when we went in after dinner and it was still there in the morning, this was disgusting and some liquids had spilled over the tray onto hallway carpet. Would not stay here again if in the area.
John
I had to cancel the hotel two days before arrival. I called the hotel directly. So there should be no payment what so ever regards John Matheson
Kyle
I was expecting more from the property off the listing on Expedia. The rooms where Ok. They need updating. The staff was just ok as well. Not real helpfull but not rude. The bartender was good. The food was just ok as well. Overall I would give it a 3 of 5 star.
