FAQs about hotels in Oban





Gateway to the Inner Hebrides

Oban is a city built around a late 18th-century distillery that produces one of the finest single malt whiskeys in Scotland. This normally peaceful town is invaded during summer when tourists use it as a base to visit the Inner Hebrides islands such as Mull, Lismore and Coll, supporting its status as the Gateway to the Isles.

The horseshoe-shaped Oban Bay is sheltered by Kerrera Island with its spectacular Gylen Castle. Award-winning seafood restaurants and lively pubs line George Street and the waterfront of Corran Esplanade adjacent to the harbour.

Take a short walk up the hill to McCaig’s Tower, a structure based on the Roman Colosseum, for the finest views of Oban’s centre and the outer islands. When you get back down to sea level, stroll into and stumble out of the Oban whiskey distillery after sampling the local version of the 'water of life'.

Admire the coastal scenery as you travel a bit out of town to the 7th-century ruins of Dunollie Castle, home of the Clan MacDougall. The Firth of Lorn gives visitors a fanatstic opportunity to try some sea kayaking.

As the capital of North Argyll, Oban has a great selection of hotels, guest houses and B&Bs available on Booking.com.

    Oban is on a very pretty bay.

    Oban is on a very pretty bay. It was really busy on a beautiful Saturday and the people were friendly and helpful. Coasters and EE-usk accepted us for food/drinks with no reservations! We did not get there early enough to explore the attractions. The train station and ferry terminal were very efficient and helpful. We discovered a choir and orchestra concert which was a real treat!

    Oban is a delightful seaside town that offers very good restaurants, shopping (small shops with nice merchandise) and the ability to enjoy the beauty of the bay and all of its activity. Oban makes a great base for exploring the area of walks/hikes, going out on small boat short duration trips to see wildlife, lots of castles to visit or to take the ferry out to the islands. Taxi service is plentiful as are private tour guides.

    A fabulous town with plenty of opportunities for boat trips to islands near and distant with awesome views. A photographers paradise. The town has plenty to see and do with lots of great pubs and restaurants. Something for everyone and very popular all year round.

    Bustling little port at centre of Highland area, ferries to outer and inner islands. Train station if no car, plus reasonable bus service to places of interest, eg. Dunstaffnage Castle and Oceanic research facility at Dunbeg etc. Try a ferry visit to Mull and look out for seals , dolphins, etc. Excellent shops and restaurants, all in small scale and within easy walking distance. Lots of points of interest and if weather nice, very hard to beat. Great for Families with young children and Oldies as well.

    GORGEOUS little port town.

    GORGEOUS little port town. Lots of lovely little shops, an interesting war time museum, and excellent food and drink in the numerous cafes, bars, and restaurants. Easy access to travel by bus, ferries, and trains. Walked (some of us VERY SLOWLY!) up the hill to McCaig's Tower and enjoyed the spectacular views; followed by a delicious late lunch at Cuan Mor.

    We travelled by train to Oban so picked the property because of its closeness to the railway station. We stayed in the apartments (separated from the hotel only by a few metres) and location proved to be excellent! It is also only one street back from high street and next to an excellent pub. Apartment was roomy, light and on first floor. Would certainly recommend to friends.

    Nicely designed hotel about 10 minutes (walking) outside of the main part of Oban. Our room was quite comfortable despite being on the smaller side. It was perfectly adequate for our needs of a one-night stay. The shower had great water pressure. Good WiFi. Parking onsite. The breakfast was good as well with lots of choices. The people working at the hotel were very friendly!

    We liked the peaceful location , but it was still close enough to the town centre. The apartment had tasteful decor and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. Immaculate. It was so nice to have the kitchenette, compared to being in a hotel, with people coming and going all the time etc. Was a real treat. Home from home. Free parking spot too, rare in Oban!

    It was nice to get the buffet breakfast back, though we had to pay for the breakfast. Next time we'll be booking direct through the hotel so the breakfast will be included in the room rate. We have been coming to Oban at least twice a year over the last 10 or more years and have always stayed at Columba hotel.

    This hotel was wonderful! We enjoyed it so much. The owners even left a whisky tasting for us from nearby Oban distillery as well as crisps and sodas. The view out the front windows was fantastic. The size of the rooms was very large. We would definitely highly recommend!!!
