The staff was very nice. The facility does not have elevators and they were kind enough to bring our luggage up for us and bring it down the next morning. We also left very early and since the stay came with breakfast, they send us off with a sack lunch. The room was also very spacious, clean and comfortable.

The road in is not for the faint of heart - it is 10 miles of single track for the most part, up and down, twists and turns. But it is totally worth it. Taychreggan is gorgeous, in the most gorgeous location ever. It is super pet friendly. It is location directly on the loch an surrounded by hills and mountains. I wanted to stay there forever. The food, in their AA rosette-awarded restaurant, is superb. They have a separate bar with fireplace and several lounges, all with stunning views. The location is quiet and serene. The staff is great, and kudos to Ivan, who assisted us with our auto's flat tire and with the rental car staff; he told them off, saying it was totally their fault as the tires were bald and should never have been rented like that!

Oban is a city built around a late 18th-century distillery that produces one of the finest single malt whiskeys in Scotland. This normally peaceful town is invaded during summer when tourists use it as a base to visit the Inner Hebrides islands such as Mull, Lismore and Coll, supporting its status as the Gateway to the Isles.
The horseshoe-shaped Oban Bay is sheltered by Kerrera Island with its spectacular Gylen Castle. Award-winning seafood restaurants and lively pubs line George Street and the waterfront of Corran Esplanade adjacent to the harbour.
Take a short walk up the hill to McCaig’s Tower, a structure based on the Roman Colosseum, for the finest views of Oban’s centre and the outer islands. When you get back down to sea level, stroll into and stumble out of the Oban whiskey distillery after sampling the local version of the 'water of life'.
Admire the coastal scenery as you travel a bit out of town to the 7th-century ruins of Dunollie Castle, home of the Clan MacDougall. The Firth of Lorn gives visitors a fanatstic opportunity to try some sea kayaking.
As the capital of North Argyll, Oban has a great selection of hotels, guest houses and B&Bs available on Booking.com.

Oban is a very busy sea port only accessible via lengthy journeys through the most beautiful scenic areas. I like the shops and cafes - real independent businesses with people serving in them, a welcome change from the usual identikit shopping centres in most towns. Public transport links are excellent and there are ferries constantly departing and arriving from the western isles. McCaig Tower is worth a visit for views over the town or out to the islands if the weather is clear.

Oban is a lovely town!
Oban is a lovely town!
Although it is 100 miles from our home at the bottom of Kintyre, we go there several times a year and stay over, one or two nights.
There are some excellent eating places and pubs, not least the excellent 'Oban Inn', a good old fashioned, proper pub!
Most shops are great, however, maybe less 'tacky touristy' shops would be a good idea?
Also excellent stores away from the town centre, M&S, Argos, Homebase, Tesco, Aldi and an excellent, quite new Lidl!
Oh, and excellent sea food, and fish & chips, especially at the 'George'!

Oban Bay Hotel exceeded all expectations. Beautiful, comfortable surroundings- elegantly Scottish without being tacky in any way. Whole place smelt amazing too - noticed as soon as we stepped in. The room was lovely - some beautiful extra touches and I liked the use of quality Scottish toiletries and products. The staff were an absolute delight in their entirety - nothing was a bother. Food absolutely delicious, had dinner in the conservatory looking out on the water and best breakfast menu I’ve seen in a long time. Will be back with haste !
Everything. It was perfect for a couple, with everything you need and very well thought out. The view is amazing. It has a total of 3 rooms plus the en-suite, with a separate entrance from the main house. Parking is free just across the road. The bedroom is at the back so there was no traffic noise at night. The owner was very welcoming and let us know he was on hand if we needed anything during our stay. It was a short drive to Oban from here. There is a very nice hotel within walking distance for evening meals.
Breakfast is fantastic, always included, and served in a patio with a wonderful view on the loch. You can choose different kinds of fresh pastries, fruit, cheese etc. and order a hot meal (e.g. Scottish breakfast) on top of that.
The hotel is very close to Oban, making it the perfect choice to spend the night after a day trip to the nearby islands.
Such a modern hotel, absolutely immaculate, staff are really friendly and helpful. This hotel was so comfortable and clean, really relaxing and super value for money. I would book this over any other hotel if in Oban again.
