My partner & i who are a young couple chose the Kings Knoll based purely on attempting to find somewhere with character, which encapsulated a flavour of Oban & experiencing something of the local community. We have stated at many of the hotels in Oban over the years including the Queens, Columba, & many B&B's. After a bit of a... More

When we arrived we were made very welcome & shown to our room (21). The room was lovely, very spacious and cosy with a large shower room with a double shower. The view from the room was overlooking Oban which was nice. Breakfast consisted of continental plus cooked breakfast and was cooked to perfection. Car park is a bit of... More

The waiting staff in the dining room at breakfast were also... More

We stayed here just for one night on a Scottish Highland & Skye 5 day trip so we really did not have too long to judge the place. Oban was but a very brief lay over. The Kings Knoll was a cheap and cheerful place and we enjoyed it. Room 21 is the one to ask for if you are... More

We stayed here for the one night as we visited family in Oban. The hotel is located at the top of the hill, so the views are pretty cool. The parking is difficult - it's on a slope and difficult to get back out. Park on the street if you can - there are a few spaces right outside the... More

Stayed and the Kings Knoll Hotel for one night prior to boarding the morning ferry to South Uist. On arrival received a warm welcome from Tom. We had a very spacious room, newly decorated and with a large modern shower room; tall windows and excellent view over the rooftops down to the harbour. Thanks to Kevin for making our evening...

Our party of three stayed at the Kings Knoll Hotel (9th July 2011) during our motorbike tour of Scotland. Tom, the owner, gave us the most warm welcome you could wish for and also some excellent advice about good places to eat, what to see and do in Oban. The rooms were comfortable, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The... More

Had parking, though not easily accessible for larger vehicles unless parked right out front. Lacked elevator as well as a baby cot, both which would have made our stay easier though good service especially with recommendations. More

Our ferry to Tiree was cancelled at very short notice and we were forced to find overnight accommodation in Oban. The staff at Kings Knoll could not have been more welcoming and helpful. They turned a stressful incident into a pleasant stay. Next time we book a ferry, we will definitely stay at Kings Knoll Hotel. More
