Beautiful traditional Scottish Hotel. Very comfortable, excellent facilities & restaurant. Very friendly & attentive staff.

Beautiful location, stunning property with amazing attentive staff, excellent restaurant and bar - pure luxury in beautiful stunning surroundings!
Nothing!
Lovely property- clean and nicely maintained
Nothing
Loved this property. Nice lodge along the water with free parking. The room was large, the staff was friendly. We ate dinner both nights here, and the breakfasts were very good.
It was a little bit out of town, more than we expected. We cancelled our dinner reservations in Oban, because we didn't want to have something to drink and then drive back to the hotel. However, it was OK, food at the Lodge was very good.
Great location for access to Oban ferry terminal, far nicer than being in town
Very spacious well appointed room. Good dog walk to the rear of the hotel. Lovely helpful staff
Nothing
A perfect find, beautiful surroundings and lovely care and thought in relation to deco. The team gave a family welcoming and the food was exceptional.
Leaving 😞
The gentle and soothing atmosphere the perfect location and the beauty of the placT
Location really good for travelling around the highlands, comfortable bed
Only two rooms with a bath which we weren't informed of as you need to pre book one if required. No safe in room, also if you have a dog you need to be seated outside the restaurant which is not very relaxing area as staff are busy around you which isn't ideal
The property is in a stunning location and the decor is beautiful. The staff were extremely friendly and couldn’t do enough for you.
My only complaint is that we opted for a sea view room however our rooms were on the bottom floor and a large coach parked in front of our room all evening and from 7am in the morning.. so we never got our sea view!
A nice room and view.
Two (false) fire alarms in the middle of the night (around 4am and then about an hour later) were poorly handled by reception the next morning. No apology - no attempt to empathise really at all.
يقع قريب من الشارع الرئيسي يبعد عن المدينه مسافه ربع شاعه بالسياره من الداخل فخم باحساس انك تعبش داخل قصر امامه بحيرة صغيره
شوي بعيد عن المواقع السياحيه
Loved the style and ambiance of the hotel and the friendly staff gave a warm welcome. Loved the soft and comfortable beds and decor. Loved the food, probably the best meal Ive had in Scotland travelling through the highlands.
I think the service at breakfast was a slight let down as we were competing with a bus tour whom devoured most of the continental buffet and it was so slow to be replenished we didnt get much of a choice and some guests missed out entirely. The staff were slow to take breakfast orders as they were consumed with the tour guests. Also the dining room was in darkness when we arrived 5mins later than our reservation and we had to find a staff member to seat us. All in all although not an ideal start to the day, the food was fabulous again and we did enjoy our cooked breakfast.
The beds, the food, the staff, lovely quiet location. Beautiful rooms, and decor.
Beautiful setting, very helpful staff, comfortable rooms, including bathroom with heated floor.
As much of Scotland in touristed areas, a wee bit pricey for a room without breakfast included, and the breakfast itself was overpriced, although pretty good (not a fantastic spread, but more than adequate).
Struttura accogliente Colazione ottima qualità
Un po troppo distante dal centro !
Last minute booking so discounted., Really nice hotel and location. Didn't use the restaurant or have breakfast due to our time constraints.
I can see why others complained about noise from other rooms , more down to the other guests than the hotel but soundproofing could be better . Restaurant seemed expensive but didn't use it.
Staff were very good and friendly
Our room needed a bit of refurb as there was a stain on the carpet otherwise it was fine.
La zona tranquila
El colchón de la cama muy incòmodo. Desayuno escaso
Everything about it
L'hotel és realment bonic per fora i té una presentació molt atractiva. Tot i això, un cop a dins, es nota que les instal·lacions han quedat una mica antiquades i demanen una renovació. El punt més negatiu de la nostra estada va ser la falta de neteja profunda a l'habitació, on vam arribar a trobar fins a 9 aranyes. Crec que l'establiment té molt de potencial, però caldria revisar el manteniment de l'interior i el control de plagues per oferir una experiència més confortable.
Fairly standard
The buffet facility was strange in some respects due to service being in more than 1 room
Beautiful property in a fantastic location, with lovely views over the loch. The hotel is very well maintained, and the refurbished rooms are comfortable and stylish. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, making for a very relaxing stay. The food was excellent, with a fantastic breakfast to start the day. The staff were attentive, friendly, and provided a genuinely warm Scottish welcome. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to return. Highly recommended!
We would have welcomed a couple of armchairs in the lounge that were a bit higher off the ground for more elderly guests. All of the comfortable seating is a bit low so a bit more variety would be appreciated.
Lovely hotel with beautiful views of the Loch. Friendly, very helpful staff, who paid great attention to detail, especially with catering for our food allergies and local information Comfortable beds
Nothing
Staff very good, ambience and room good
Very expensive indeed in comparison to others of similar quality
Very dog friendly, lovely helpful staff, delicious food, stunning local, calm relaxing room
Beautiful hotel, amazing views and wonderful staff
Great size well-appointed bedroom. Lovely sitting areas and garden.
Dining/breakfast room was a bit tired.
Very pleasant family run hotel; amazing staff; lots of history in the house, excellent location, and the restaurant was very good
No electric charge
The position across the road from the sea loch affords wonderful views from anywhere on the front of the property and from our bedroom window. The front gardens are beautifully kept. All of the common areas in the hotel are in great shape and give an air of high quality. Our bedroom was immaculately decorated with a similarly high quality feel. The hotel team were all welcoming and friendly. We ate twice in the restaurant which fully deserves its trip adviser rating.
Can’t think of anything.
Etablissement familial - nous avons diner a l'hotel les 2 soirs de notre sejour - et c'etait fort sympathique
Hotel un peu a l'ecart - nécessité de prendre sa voiture pour se déplacer
I liked lake view and the hotel style Many free car parking Quite area and surrounded by nature
No lift 😓
La liteire , la vue sur le lac (mais pas de la chambre !)
Hors de prix - comfortable mais chambre vieillotte. Pas de mini frigo. Mal insonorisé. Restaurant hors de prix pour la qualité des plats et du service. Service peu souriant et prétentieux. Petit dej médiocre et hors de prix aussi. Nous avons attendu presque 30 minutes pour avoir notre breakfast. Et en plus, il faut réservé l’heure du petit dej à l’avance. Bref, 650eu pour 2 nuits, un resto pour 2 et un petit dej pour 2!
Posizione, eleganza delle zone comuni e camere molto accoglienti
Prezzo cena elevato
Nice site and view and generally nice staff save at our arrival. They guy at the reception (not the one welcoming outside but inside at the desk) was particularly not welcoming which was a pity and gave us the wrong impression compared to all other staff members.
One staff member particularly not welcoming which + family rooms not next to each other + rooms not organised for families. All in all impression that this was not kids friendly.
Food Dinner and breakfast were excellent with great service. The bar and lounge are very cosy, parking is easy. Staff is very professional and friendly, they really made our stay memorable.
A bit expensive. Location is a bit isolated and remote so if not by car hard to get to, however this is what you look for travelling to the highlands.
Room and bathroom were comparatively spacious.staff were keen to please and the restaurant food was of a high standard.
Very poor wifi
Mooie omgeving, vriendelijk personeel. Goed eten en fijne kamers. Prima hotel voor als je op doorreis bent, zoals wij waren. Daarnaast ligt het op prima rijafstand van Oban.
Niets :)
Excellent food and drink in a beautifully presented property
A bit picky, but our large dog could not pass the stile at the rear of the property to access the walks.
Location was beautiful and serene
Breakfast could have been better. The continental breakfast was a bit of a disappointment given the price they were charging
Very delicious breakfast, very nice and attentive staf.
No facilites for babies.
A truly memorable stay! Beautiful hotel, excellent food, and outstanding service. The highlight was chatting with the staff—their authentic Scottish humor and warm hospitality made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Highly recommended!
The hotel decor was exquisite. The furnishings of our room were of very high quality, thoughtful design and full of character. Very comfy beds. Excellent food and service. Friendly and down to earth staff who were always courteous and happy to help.
Nothing negative to say really. Could have provided shower caps for convenience.
Hotel was very clean. Well appointed with good quality furnishings and staff very helpful.
There were steps to the hotel and to the ground floor bedrooms. Not suitable for wheelchair bound residents. No accessible rooms with grab rails or seat but was told that chair and suction held grab available if needed but not offered. This should be advertised on website.
All great
Nothing
Excellent in every way. Friendly helpful staff throughout. Very comfortable and our room (12) had a fabulous view across Loch Feochan
Location, friendly staff, room styling
Lack of air conditioning in room was a real problem. I've stayed in budget hotels with full air conditioning, so no real excuse not to have air conditioning in rooms in a hotel of this standard. Ground floor room with sash window that only opened upwards meant the window had to be left closed overnight adding to the temperature of the room.
Tutto
Heel goed gelegen. Zeer vriendelijke mensen. Mooi hotel in Schotse stijl. Zeer hondvriendelijk. Mand en bakje op de kamer, treats aan het ontbijt. Eten: ontbijt en dinner bijzonder lekker. Goede gins en ook de scones zijn superlekker! Ruime kamer met een comfortabel kingsized bed
De badkamer vond ik iets minder. Was ruim maar slechts een zeer kleine douche.
The location was beautiful and the staff were really friendly
Nothing
Greeting and assistance from David front of house P.R was very helpful.since the actual CHECKIN at unimpressive desk was brusque and perfunctory from Susan...no attemp nor interest.in advice or suggestions for places in Oban to eat....etc BREAKFAST SERVICE Sunday morning was sporadic and unprofessional..not up to standard. Quirky elderly waiters mixed up / forgot orders and served burnt recycled toast . I had to ask several times for items ordered but not brought [ was I being ' punished' for choosing my OWN table .... ! ? .
Room.not really comfortable and laden with animal skins on chairs and too.many bed throws. Quiet on the side / back as requested but really not good value all up . Size of room bigger than average ..20 m sq..but just big enough . Discovered after dining at a place recommended by Museum gents that Madam Susan..whom I had asked for good recommendations for.local specialities.[ no suggestion except PUBS ! ]...announced that sge went there all the time..ie place I chose myself..........why did she not tell me when I asked .. Not open in communication ..unusual for a Scot . Loud assertive vocally receptionist turned up next morn ......complete opposite of her night before colleague
One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed
I liked everything about the property 
The staff were friendly, the manager was extremely helpful and gave us upgrade. They had bird feeder so we could watch birds during breakfast. The food was excellent and service friendly. Great view of lake.
Alt spillede. Det er et virkeligt dejligt sted at opholde sig på.

Great location and staff very keen to help - would definitely recommend.

Decent location. Good sized room
Check in member of staff abrupt and rude. Room cleaning service very average, continental breakfast was appalling. There seemed to be an undercurrent of anger between managers and team.
Me and my partner stayed here last night and it was absolutely amazing! The staff are amazing they are so welcoming so helpful and just so approachable! The room was brilliant we had a sea view which was lovely to wake up to! Breakfast was amazing too pancakes were beautiful! Would definitely be staying again and highly recommend
Amazing stay - staff are so friendly and the rooms were great. The restaurant is exceptional. Some of the best food we’ve eaten. Also very dog friendly.
Alles prima voor elkaar

Toilet not flushing properly .
Jolie vue, chambre tres confortable, personnel charmant, excellents restaurant et petit déjeuner
Tout était parfait
Pretty hotel overall, nice gardens, lovely entry way. Room & bathroom were spaceous, bed super comfortable. shower pressure was great also.
The price increased significantly from when we first planned to book, and overall it felt quite expensive for what was offered. One of the main reasons we chose this hotel, despite its slightly out-of-the-way location, was the restaurant. Unfortunately, it was closed during our stay due to holidays and staff sickness, which we appreciate things happen but it was disappointing. We received a call the day before saying they would provide recommendations for restaurants in the area but there was no mention of that when we arrived other than a ‘sorry it’s closed’ There also isn’t much in the area to walk due to busy road right outside - we pointed that out to the Reception team member when we had a chat i’ the evening and he mentioned there was 2 view point walks which would have been nice to know at check in. The room itself was spaceous. The carpets could really do with a deep clean and the bathroom window didn't open, so it was difficult to clear moisture after showering. Given the size of the bathroom and the room rate, a bathtub would have been nice, or at least a more premium shower enclosure rather than a basic plastic cubicle. Breakfast pricing also felt excessive: £17 for a continental breakfast and £25 for a cooked breakfast, especially considering cooked service only runs until 9:30. overall it just felt really overpriced for location and the fact the restaurant was closed
Wonderful location. Friendly staff. Had a nice room and view.
No phone in room. Poor quality room service
The views are stunning and the restaurant and lounge were lovely to sit in. The staff were excellent and couldn’t recommend enough. We were staying here after we had just got married to celebrate, and they really looked after us, even upgrading our room to a Loch view. Thank you for making our mini-moon special!
Nothing :)
The staff went above and beyond to accommodate and welcome us. The room and furnishings were stunning + the lounge spaces absolutely gorgeous. Playing backgammon by the fireside on a chilly evening with the remaining wine from our supper - heaven! The staff even sorted packed lunches for our early morning exit to Mull.
Unterkunft direkt am See Schöne Ausstattung das Hotel und schön eingerichtet
Frühstück Auswahl sehr klein und Extras mussten bezahlt werden. Abend essen Preisleistung nicht in Ordnung.
Lovely room and hotel in a great location by the water. Friendly helpful staff. Wish we were there for longwr
wish we could have stayed longer !!!!
Great location close to Oban with spectacular views across the loch and lovely hotel garden with seating area which we enjoyed sitting in for a cup of tea. Very comfortable bedroom and great shower, so we had a good night’s sleep.
The food was ok in the evening for dinner but not special. Plenty of choices for breakfast in the morning but the cooked breakfast was poor.
Non ho dato il massimo solo perché abbiamo avuto una stanza sopra la cucina e l’odore e il rumore delle ventole non ti dava scelta che restare con le finestre chiuse e non hanno l’aria condizionata
Geschmackvolles Haus mit Schlossfeeling. Sehr gemütlich und komfortabel. Gehobener Service.
Unterbringung einer Busgruppe, dadurch Hektik beim Frühstücken.
Staff were very helpful, especially when you required assistance.

Out of town
Exceptional hospitality and very good food. Exceeded my expectations.
The team of staff is absolutely fantastic - a wonderful, friendly welcome - nothing was too much trouble. The hotel decor is perfect for the history of the building, room comfort was great, with the comfiest bed and linen I have experienced in a hotel. The food and drink was perfect.

Comfortable, friendly, great location. Staff all amazing and very knowledgeable about the area. Love to hear all the birds singing and watching the wildlife. Gave a sense of happiness.

Lovely staff, lovely food. Room was clean and comfortable.
Bon petit dejeuner
Prix du dîner La vue sur mer inexistante car cachée par un arbre
Mooie ruime kamers.
Zeer luide kamer, we hoorden elke stap van de kamer boven ons. Jammer voor een 4 Sterren hotel. Als je denkt rustig te kunnen slapen....🤨
Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Nothing too much trouble.
the food for breakfast and dinner was amazing. very attentive staff and wonderful bed/breakfast experience
Ligging en inrichting van het hotel. De behulpzaamheid van het personeel. Prachtige tuin en heerlijke ambiance.
Niets aan te merken.
Beautiful room with view. Lovely lounge and dining area.
Das Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer sind Top ausgestattet. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Der Lounge Bereich lädt nach einem langen Tag zum Entspannen ein. Ich kann nur empfehlen dort einen Whisky oder auch 2 zu trinken. Die Auswahl ist riesig und die Barkeeperin hat mich sehr gut beraten. Wir waren run um zufrieden.
Das Hotel, die Lage, das Personal sowie die Restaurantbesuche waren super. Der Ausblick auf das Loch sind genial. Die Ruhe perfekt zum entspannen.Gerne wären wir länger geblieben. Empfehlung für dieses Hotel.
