Old, poorly run. This hotel must’ve been very grand at one point, but it has been poorly kept, and it was very rundown and Old . the bathrooms were in disrepair.

First impressions were not great. The place looks down at the heel. Tiny three person rickety lift broke down for a while causing us to climb the stairs to 3rd floor. Bed was clean and comfortable. Staff were all great. Breakfast was good. Be aware you will be charged £10/day to park your car, this was a surprise but it is mentioned somewhere in the blurb if you read it all. All in all we were not too impressed, but we were there just to get a bed and a breakfast for 3 days, so it was OK.

I was disappointed with my stay at the Great Western Hotel. I paid extra for a seaside-view room, but the view was largely obstructed by construction equipment and materials, which was not what I expected when booking. The hotel itself feels quite old and in need of refurbishment. The front entrance and revolving door are noticeably dated and could benefit from an upgrade. Throughout the property, the floors were very squeaky—including in the hallways, bar area, and even inside the guest rooms—which added to the feeling that the building is showing its age. Another inconvenience was the lift, which is extremely small. It could barely fit one person with a suitcase comfortably, making it difficult when moving luggage. While the location is convenient and the hotel has character, the overall condition of the property did not justify the price paid, especially given the obstructed sea view. I would recommend that management invest in updating the facilities and be more transparent when construction may affect the views guests are paying for. Parking was also a disappointment. The hotel advertises parking facilities, but the available spaces were very limited and difficult to access.

Breakfast was excellent, super tasty!

Breakfast cheap & cheerful not worth the extra £15pppn. Parking £10 pd!Seemingly mentioned in the tiniest of print! Room was clean. Staff friendly.

The only shortfall was having no beer at the bar. Guinness or cider were the only options.Many went to the bar next door.

This hotel is a little tired but the staff are very helpful and efficient. Our room had an excellent view over Oban harbour it was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the drinks (tea coffee of chocolate) and the complimentary biscuits were really good. The window frames are in need of repair but the window were clean as was everything else in the room. Breakfast had a great choice and everything was tasty and plentiful. Parking was a bit of an issue but the staff were excellent and did everything possible to resolve any difficulties and I appreciated there efforts.

Comfortable hotel with very friendly and obliging staff. We enjoyed our stay in beautiful Oban.

A sad hotel that no doubt has seen better days. Some upgrades being done apparently but our initial room was terrible complete with faulty plumbing. They did change our room to a 'superior' after I highlighted our issues and the staff have to be commended but I don't envy them fronting this establishment. There must be better options in Oban.

Good place for a short stay, Great! view btw. Didn't got time to visit the Bar or try the Breakfast menu but by the looks of the ambience it was pretty neat n clean.
