Just got back from a weekend away at the Queens Hotel, Oban. This is the first time we have stayed at the Queens and were hoping for the best. We were greeted by two very nice reception staff who were very helpful. We had asked for a sea view room, but the receptionist said she had managed to get us... More

We usually struggle to find good hotel accomodation in Oban, based on family and friends experiences as well as our own. (Please note this statement refers to the larger chain hotels and does not include small or family run hotels) The Queens hotel was good value for bed & breakfast, and although the rooms are not very large, they have...

Charlieandannie's review sums up our experience at this hotel. It started OK when we organized dinner over email as we were late driving into Oban, but when we arrived it all went downhill. We immediately sat down to eat and were served by a very helpful and attentive young Scottish girl who tried her best, although some Kleenex wouldn't have... More

I have stayed at the Queens hotel many times over the last 3 years due to work commitments. Staff always professional and polite. Food is excellent. Rooms always clean and tidy but can be on the small side (if you are on holiday i guess you spend as little time as poss in the room) due to the recession my... More

Room was very small - barely enough room to fit any furniture other than bed and unable to open suitcase without putting it onto the bed! Corridor outside room had flickering light, only partial lift and a long walk to room with cases. You also have a bizarre list of rules/instructions with fine amounts from hanging things onto the towel... More

This hotel is very close to the town - about 10 -15mins walk. Initial impressions were of friendly staff. Receptionist was very pleasant. The room itself, to be honest, was just about acceptable. It was clean and the bed was fairly comfortable. There was a sea view at least - I can honestly say that around 30% of the view... More

Really close to town, 10 minute walk. The staff were lovely and the breakfast was a perfect start to the day! We both had the full scottish breakfast and couldn't fault it. The hotel seemed really quiet when we went (end of October) and they instead of just sticking us in a random room, they put us in a beautiful... More
