8/10 Very good

Hotel was very good. Lovely clean modern room with super comfy bed. Staff were all excellent, friendly and helpful. The hotel is in beautiful scenery and I'm sure it is lovely to sit on the terrace outside restaurant and bar in the summer. Food was very good too.

10/10 Exceptional

Coming up by train, it was a convenient and luxury base camp for the Ben Cruachan circuit, if a short walk along the road doesn't bother you. Lovely garden and river. Very nice staff and food.

10/10 Exceptional

overnight stay on my way to the Outer Hebrides. On checking in a was surprised to hear I had been upgraded to a bigger room. The bed was big and comfy and the shower was powerful and hot. I had dinner and breakfast at the bistro which was limited for veggies but no more so than any other restaurant and the staff were helpful and polite.
Linda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very basic accommodation but quite close to Oban. There were only 4 guests when I was there. It felt a bit run down, no Wi-Fi, chef off work, no room cleaning each day etc. I think there was only 2 staff in the building all day
Stewart, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Needs attention

Place is run down and lifeless. Windows are in a bad shape and bins full in view of windows. There was a hairball on the carpet so not cleaned properly.

2/10 Poor

Terrible food

The staff were nice enough but there were only 4 main meal options. The food that we had was terrible the smoked salmon starter had two tiny pieces of salmon barely enough for one of the three oatcakes that came with it ! The main meal I had was Steak pie it had greasy watery gravy and tasteless meat covered in gristle My colleague had mince and mash which was also tasteless and when he asked for a sachet of brown sauce to try to put a bit of taste into it was told there was none I would not recommend anyone eat there until the food improves drastically
Andy, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Don’t go there !

The whole hotel needed more management. Public areas were dirty and uncared for. One morning at breakfast a tablecloth on the coffee table had the same very large stain of coffee from the previous morning (covering a huge percentage of the table). The same morning the coffee tasted stale as if just reheated from previous morning. The food we had was adequate but no more. The room was clean and the en-suite. However, the security was terrible with outdoor doors left ajar overnight and no management in the hotel at all. Guests were left to their own devices from about 22:00 to 09:00. The cook was obviously in attendance for dinner and breakfast and also junior staff (the junior staff were excellent but undertrained). Would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

6/10 Good

I wasn’t really expecting much for £50 but the building itself needs some modernisation. The room looked like it needs a refresh and the view was just of the roof, you couldn’t see anything outside. The shower was not the best. It squirted out bits of water and screamed when it was turned on. Told on Expedia that check in is at 2, I know I got there slightly early but my room wasn’t ready until 3. Dining room wasn’t the best, there was no atmosphere and not a lot of choice on the menu, breakfast was more or less the same, not a lot of choice and some of the things on the menu they didn’t have. Bed was really comfy which is good

My room was a little tired and in need of some repairs, but it wasn’t expensive and it was clean and comfortable. Evening meal and breakfast both very good. I’d be happy to go back when the repairs have been completed.
