Thanks for a great... More

We have just came back from a three day stay in room B at this lovely guest house. The room was just perfect, great bed, and super views from the windows over Oban bay, where we watched the sunset, and the sperm whale which happened to be in the bay at the time.. The breakfast selection was extensive and well... More

What a beautiful hotel in an amazingly beautiful location. Hospitality could not be doubted. Hotel was so homely. We were lucky enough to see the most unusual site of a whale in the harbour from our room- so lucky!! I would not hesitate to recommend - we will be returning.

We booked room A in the Barriemore Guest House for a weekend away in Oban. Our jaws dropped when we saw the room. It is absolutely huge! It is furnished to a very high standard and retains the beautiful, original features of the building including a huge, stained glass window at the head of our bed! Wonderful. The view out... More

A great tasty breakfast with wide choice. Owners are relatively new so further upgrading is taking place over the winter.The views from the Barriemore are awesome and the stair... More

Could easily be one of the better hotels in Oban, standard is high for a guest house. Lovely clean room, high ceilings, great breakfast. Only reason for not excellent rating was the fact that the bed was a tad hard, there was a leaky gutter (rained hard one night and it did disturb my sleep) and the breakfast room was... More

Owners are very friendly and welcoming, rooms are warm and clean and breakfast was very good. Great value and would definately stay again. Free wi- Fi is much appreciated as its hard to get a signal throughout the town.

Have stayed at the Barrimore a number of times before and after going sailing from Oban. The rooms are comfortable and the staff are friendly and always looking to help their guests.
