The view and location
The towels smelled like curry and the sheets where a bit itchy.
Beautiful room, comfortable and clean. Helpful staff and excellent food.
A little changing area at the hot tub would be helpful
Idyllic location, attentive staff, great comfortable room. Breakfast was excellent.
Breakfast good and a nice selection, but stayed a few days when quiet, buffet not out, but understood, but staff not explain if you required continental, to order it as not as good a selection as when busy.
Nothing to complain about.
Beautiful location, welcoming and friendly staff, nothing was too much and the rooms were so comfortable
Well maintained. Decor was lovely and in keeping.
The hotel was located outside of Oban but not to far away full of character, a beautiful building plenty of parking log burning fires comfortable seating on
Beautiful location overlooking Loch Feochan and just a short drive into Oban. Very tranquil and beautiful setting and was lucky enough to spot seals and otters in the loch from my bedroom window. My room was spotlessly clean and has recently been modernised. Comfortable bed and a spacious and fabulous bathroom. The food, both for breakfast and dinner was exceptional with the dinner menu and quality of produce, presentation and execution elevating it to a fine dining experience. They have a very well stocked bar even if not a whisky drinker. The staff were excellent, friendly and accommodating.
The room was fantastic, the food divine and the views and local environment uplifting.
I loved the feel of the place very old school, Scottish feeling! Lovely walk you can do behind the property to a nice lookout of the loch. The staff were lovely on arrival and very helpful throughout. Ps … best bed I’ve ever slept on SO comfortable!
The room got very hot, the window was locked shut so we had to go ask someone for a fan, but staff helped right away. The restaurant didn’t have much gluten and dairy free options.
Great location. Stylish decor in room. Friendly staff. Dog bed provided.Lovely breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff.Relaxing stay.
Can't think.of anything.
Loved the decoration and style, all beautifully done and immaculately maintained.The manager who rectified a minor booking error (Louise), did so in a very professional and generous way, she was a joy! As was Morag during our breakfast.
The male staff definitely let the hotel down during our stay, from us being locked out in the cold on arrival and having to phone ‘head office’ to be let in, to the waiting and bar staff on our night of arrival. Overall it seemed like they either hadn’t had real training in the industry, or didn’t really enjoy their jobs, which was a bit of a shame. Our dinner also wasn’t great, my venison ravioli, the pasta was thick and undercooked - I didn’t eat it, and told our waiter, who simply took it away without a word and no feedback/rectification after. My main course of fish was served on a cold plate too :( Ps please make the dog friendly dining area a bit warmer in the winter, shivering during dinner isn’t a good look :)
Beautiful place, lovely location
The front door locked (5pm) and even when we were knocking nobody opened the door. We had to call them and after the lady on the phone informed staff from the hotel that we are waiting outside they let us in. It was cold, raining and snowing at the same time so we were not impressed. We were told that sometimes that happens. Maybe it would be worth it to check it frequently or do something to prevent it? Our room was booked with breakfast but staff who served breakfast were not friendly at all and we felt very uncomfortable asking questions about what is included and if there are any options for cooked breakfast.
Veey kind, helpful and cheery staffVery clean hotelExcellent foodPrivate use of the jacusiLication for visiting Seil Island
Perhaps tge jacyzi shoukd be free, as the room cost is quite considerable....one or two pounds sacrificed to give free access would be a nice generous and very welcome gestureFor the rooms facing the loch, the crunching sound of guest and delivery vehicles on the gravel forcourt early in the morning is slightly disturbing
A lovely traditional Scottish experience. It was wonderful to spend time in a lounge that felt really comfortable and welcoming.
Absolutely nothing. I’d come back in a heartbeat…for the afternoon high tea!!
The location is stunning. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and they all love dogs
Nothing! I was very happy with my stay at the property.
Upkeep, cleanliness and lakefront
Slightly far from the city
Staff was helpful and friendly. The property was absolutely beautiful and the room was clean.
Great location, hotel, food and extremely friendly staff. Not too far from Oban and a great place to relax when you're not out experiencing the beautiful Lochs and scenery that Scotland has to share.
