ScotlandDanDespite the room having being recently renovated, in places it was to a very low standard.
Shower fittings were dangerously loose, the bar that held the glass partition in place was totally detached.
Questionable stains on the rug.
No hairdryer.
Double wasn’t a double, it was two singles pushed together and the ridge along the mattress was so pronounced and raised that you couldn’t actually sleek in the centre of the bed. May as well have saved money and just got a single.
Outside of hotel very shabby looking.
Stairwells and corridors very very tired carpets.

We had a low price deal and stayed in a twin room which was spacious . Good tea/coffee and TV ( although signal kept dropping) comfortable beds. Bathroom was cold and fan would have ran all night, had I not switched it off . Good parking outside with £10 charge.
Perhaps typical of an older seaside hotel.
Many parts of it need updating. Our room had not been painted for some time and needed sprucing up.

Very Disappointing Stay
I booked this stay after seeing it recommended on TikTok, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to the hype. It also wasn’t in the centre of town, which made getting around less convenient than expected. The mattress was so soft it felt like I was being swallowed by it, making it really uncomfortable to sleep. The room itself was extremely hot — even after turning off the radiator it was still warm, and the only way to cool it down was by opening the window. That would’ve been fine, except the noise from the spa pumps ran all night and made it difficult to rest. We must have been given an older room because it looked nothing like the pictures we saw on TikTok.
Parking was valet-only and cost £25, which felt excessive. On a positive note, the room was clean, but it was also quite small and definitely in need of an update.
Overall, not the relaxing experience I was hoping for.

We had a sea view room which had a great view, but the windows were so dirty and cobwebs in the corners that it actually spoiled that for us. The staff and service they provided was excellent, but however I expected a wider variety of meals but the menu was very limited. It was nice to sit at the tables provided outside when having drinks, but again the metal railings at the tables had a lot of chipped and flaked paint and made the hotel look rather run down. The dining rooms and all the seating areas with lovely leather chairs was very nice on the ground floor, but moving up the stairs there was black tape holding the red tartan carpet together, our room actually had small nails holding the wallpaper on the walls. It all looked great online ,but close up it was rather tired.

I can't tell you about my stay as I booked the wrong dates. As soon as I found out, I phoned The Oyster Inn to cancel but because I used Trip.com, they said there was nothing they could do.
I cancelled on Trip.com and the message said that they'd contacted the hotel to confirm if it was ok to cancel FOC. According to trip.com, no response was forthcoming so my booking was not cancelled. My booking has since been ”completed”. When I contacted the hotel the following day to ask why they had not approved the cancellation, they said trip.com had simply asked for info, not to approve cancellation. Who is lying?
Suffice to say, I will not use trip.com again and have decided to stay elsewhere in Oban.

We booked 2 rooms 1 night last minute booking. I got Junior suite for me & my husband. Room is very spacious for UK standard, sea view is very beautiful Seaview. The hotel has lift thats very good for travelers with many luggages.The room is a little cold so we switched on spare small heater which is warm enough. Their specialist amenities are very good. Whisky Honey. Oh.our room door isn't working, that's pretty scary.

It is very centrally located with Tesco, M n S big supermarkets just round the corner 5 minutes walk away. Some Car park spaces in front good for free parking after 6 pm to 9 am. For cheapest whole day parking, 7.50 pound can be found near the ferry pier, about 7 mins walk from hotel. Easy access to all restaurants.
Reception is within the bar in Ranald Hotel with manned staff until 11pm.
Cons in room, water shower not consistent in temperature, no washing machine and room lightings can feel too dark. But maybe a lot of lightings in that area are like that…
But all in all will recommend. Comfortable.

A lovely old hotel in a beautiful location. The room was very warm and I would have loved to open the window to cool down but was reluctant to let the midges in. Perhaps a fan would have been nice. Bed was comfortable and bathtub provided some much appreciated relaxation after a full day of hiking. Overall an enjoyable stay.

First day of my Scotland trip I booked arrochar hotel A Bespoke.
The hotel is old but clean. As it is old there will be noise when people are walking or talking. So it common.
Hotel has a traditional old Scotland style.
The front desk staff is friendly
Room for solo travellers is large enough. Toilet are well kept and clean

Perfect location close to rail station.Lots of positive points, however hotel was dated in parts, room carpet flooring was unstable so had to exercise caution not to trip and cause injury. Reception staff member Jamie pleasant and most helpful, so was Nicola over the phone the night before check-in. Food could be improved, with a better variety at breakfast, and providing fresh fruit.
Room allocated was not what I expected. Would stay again if better room allocated.
