Hosts were very helpful with local knowledge and helping to settle in. Room was extremely clean and very comfortable. Although on main street, very quiet. Brekkie was great. Host recommended good places to eat. Walking distance to main area.

Arrived with a group of biker friends for one night. Excellent parking for the bikes. We were well looked after by Morven and the staff. The accommodation was great, the breakfast was great and the staff were great.

We arrived on a grey and wet afternoon. So good to be able to go to the communal lounge and meet with other travellers. No need to leave , with a bottle of wine to share and such comfortable accomodation

We stayed at Kathmore for two nights in may 2013 whilst en route to the Island of Coll. Morven and her staff were very friendly and helpful. Our bedroom was immaculately clean and well appointed. The gardens and outdoor areas are spacious and beautiful. Kathmore is very conveniently located for a short walk into the centre of Oban and the... More

We stayed at Kathmore for 2 nights in May 2013. Perfect location, 5 minute walk to the center of Oban and the docks. Very clean room and bath. The guest lounge was a great place to unwind after a day out and have a drink, read and meet other very amiable guests. Good Scottish breakfast too. The best part however... More

We have recently returned from our umpteenth visit to Kathmore and once again, delighted by the room. Immaculate in decor and cleanliness (room and bathroom), comfortable beds, I could go on forever! We have stayed in other hotels in Oban (only when Morven couldn't squeeze us in) but they are nowhere near the standards of Kathmore. You can park your... More

We stayed here while our boat was out of the water for a few days. It was very convenient for the town and very comfortable. We had a good breakfast and were made to feel welcome. The price was very reasonable and we would stay again if we needed a bed on land.
