“Elegant country house with fabulous views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

We were awed by the views overlooking busy Oban harbor as we drove up the hill to the hotel. The hotel is located far enough away from busy part of Oban to be quiet and restful, but close enough for quick trips to town. Inside, it kept getting better. The owners Michael and Marion were genuinely friendly and welcoming, and we were given a comfortable corner room with big windows to enjoy the views. Furnished with antiques in a formal style, it is the kind of place to enjoy curling up with a drink from the well-stocked bar and a book. I would have preferred having a shower in the bathroom instead of a tub, but that was a minor inconvenience. They don't serve dinner, but Marion got us a reservation at a fantastic seafood place within walking distance. The breakfast the next morning was one of the best we had in our 2 week trip to Scotland. I would highly recommend this place for a romantic weekend retreat.

“Nice place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 August 2011

The setting is perfect, the rooms are clean, good breakfast and it has a bar.

The downsides - it was a little pricey for what it was, the decor is a little old-fashioned and not of the highest quality (some linoleum etc).

“Elegant Luxury, Wonderful Hosts!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 August 2011

Our best to Mike, Marion, and Seppe (their Bernese Mountain Dog puppy). Dungallon House owns each of the five stars it has earned, and is a very relaxing place to stay. Mike is a first class owner\operator\(bartender :), and is a pleasure to chat with. The views are unparalleled in Oban. Chrissie, their cook, does wonderful things with scrambled egges and smoked salmon.

In all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Best wishes Mike and Marion in all you do.

“A kind of boutique Hotel with a spectacular view over the Oban Habour”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2011

Amazing location for this old house refurbished into a so called boutique hotel.
Service is essential nothing left to gadgets and extras. Rooms have enough space and decorated/furnished according to english style.Clean and comfortable with friendly tenants.
We arrived w/t booking, therefore we were charged full rates.

Room Tip: Book in advance in order to get better prices.

“Magnificent Views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed here in July and was allocated a room on the second floor with a wonderful picture window overlooking the bay and Island of Mull. I think of all the hotels that we have stayed in this one has to have the most wonderful views. Three sides of the hotel have views of the sea or harbour. Lovely lounge with well stocked bar (especially if you like malt whisky).
The hotel is spotless and the hosts and staff very obliging. The decor is a little dated but this can be forgiven because the hotel certainly has style.

Room Tip: Second floor room has wonderful views, but so do most others I would guess
