Really great location, steps from the ferry terminal and train station, restaurants and shops. Would like better directions though. It was hard to find.

Highly recommend!

Very easy access, my phone didn’t sync, I called the telephone # provided on the door , the assistant that answered was very polite, kind & was very happy to let me in. My room was clean, looked new, bed was comfortable, hot water, everything I needed! I spent another night here on my way back. Same experience, clean, new, comfortable bed & hot water.

Convenient location

The room appeared to be fairly clean, it was absolutely tiny, maybe 10 x 8 not including the bathroom. On our second day, the lights stopped working and it could not be fixed. The service was great and we got moved to another room.

This is a great spot for a good nights sleep. The rooms optimize space so it is meant to be a place to drop your bags. It’s clean well appointed and the value and location are phenomenal.

What a great place!

The room as advertised is quite small. I was there for five nights and had quite a few clothes. There were no drawers to put any clothes away only four hangers. It was okay because the bed had plenty of space underneath it for me to put my suitcase and pull it out when I needed different clothes. The decor of the room was very nice, done in red, grey, and black. The lighting options were excellent with switches conveniently located. What was truly fantastic was the accessibility to the train station (300 feet), to the Caledonian McBayne ferry (600 feet) and several restaurants within 200 feet including a very nice one right above the rooms. I was a solo traveler so this was absolutely perfect for me.
The griffin logo of Caledonian McBrayne ferries six hundred feet from my room. Provides transport to some of the Hebrides isles.

Mostly ok, I struggled with getting into the property as the link wouldn’t work so I got in by someone holding the door open for me in their way out of the property. I got into my room fine. Also, I had to have a luke warm shower as there was limited hot water.

So happy we booked again

We were looking for easy access to the railway station and ferry port - Pierrooms could not have been closer to both. The room is small but we were so impressed with the overall cleanliness and comfort of the beds that we booked again for our return journey. The only improvement I would suggest is a small shelf for the top bunk.

Loved the location. Didn’t like faucet in sink not properly plumbed in and could not get any hot water in the shower.

Excellent position next to ferry train station and in the busy part of town The only downside, which I knew before booking, was the room was without a window but I would book again.

Pier Rooms is well-suited to its purpose: a good noght’s sleep when in transit through Oban. Good bed, excellent shower, flexible lighting and a small tea kettle for quick caffeination in the morning. Basic tea and coffee are provided. TV above the bed with decent selection and smart TV capability for streaming. Ventilation could be better. CO2 role sharply overnight

As long as your ok with no windows it is a cute tiny room. We didneed to open the door by AM to reduce the CO2 level (2 adults and got to 1450)

The complete absence of any natural light (no window or skylight) was odd.
Craig, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Average. The location is excellent, but the room is tiny even for European standards. No windows, which makes the room incredibly dark. The bathroom faucet was so stiff, toilet roll holder was broken, and I'm pretty sure there is a leak at the bottom the bathroom drain. Desk space is almost non-existent and milk packages were rancid. Given the cost, I expected more.
Julian, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Small modern room with no windows.

First thing to point out is that there are no windows in the rooms. Everything else is fine and modern, if a little compact. Good enough for a sleepover. One room not completely cleaned though - toilet was dirty and not flushed. Enough said. Staff were good and available at the end of a phone as there is no one on site.

Comfortable room but musty smelling bathroom

The room was small but I know that when I booked it. It had everything I needed and the bed was comfortable. The major issue was the musty, damp smell in the shower room. It's windowless accommodation and I think this is the problem, or maybe the ventilation in the bathroom is just poor. I'm sure it's something that can be fixed but the smell was bad, even with the door closed, which definitely affected my overall opinion of the property. If not for this I would stay again.

This is a bare bones hotel for budget travelers. It offered the basics. Pros-Great location right off the harbor near the ferry. Easy to walk to everything. Felt safe. Cons-Parking is not included (however free street parking from 6pm-9am), spotty WiFi and small rooms. We used Expedia to book the room and somehow we never received an email on how to check in from pier rooms or Expedia. Not sure why and no information on the pier rooms website. This made for a frustrating experience upon arrival. The fishing/tackle store next door was able to help us by calling the sister hotel to pier rooms- god bless David!! The staff was amazing with helping get our room key, the staff being the front desk girl at the hotel and the maids cleaning the rooms!! All in all this place is good for one night.
