We had a quick stopover in Oban and the Scot was perfect for our needs. Location was great, with close proximity to the harbour, cafes and bars.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay. The staff was excellent, and the parking safe and ample. Two negatives: (1) no elevator, which makes coming and going difficult, even if you are ambulatory, and (2) the hotel is across the street from a very loud, rough bar; the music was loud, and the patrons very intoxicated.

Great location for visiting Oban and hotel is very nice. Left an item behind and staff were unbelievably prompt in mailing it to me after my visit… very much appreciated!

The room at the Scott was clean and comfortable. Location was very convenient and walkable to much of what Oban has to offer. It was the only property we stayed at during our highland tour that charged for parking. The only other minor inconvenience was we had to negotiate a couple flights of stairs to get to our room.

This is a good hotel if you are wanting to stay centrally in Oban. The main hotel building has a modern feel. It's also one of the few places centrally with it's own parking, although you have to pay a nightly supplement. Just a warning for anybody with mobility issues, that there didn't appear to be any lifts. Buffet breakfast available if you want, but there are also many other options locally.

The Scott is in an excellent location in Oban, very close to lots of shops and restaurants, and also the Oban Distillery!. We stayed in one of the studio apartment rooms and it was in a separate building from the main hotel and very spacious with a big bathroom, nice bedroom and a kitchenette/living area. The main building had a nice bar that had a yummy breakfast buffet for $20/person. Parking was $10 and right on property. For the price this was a great room!!

We booked this room at short notice, deciding to break up our trip from Tobermory to Carlisle over 2 days. We got a spacious and very comfortable room, quiet and well-appointed. Like many older hotels. Hotels, in this part of the world there was no lift. Two of the staff are kind enough to help us get our luggage upstairs. It was nice to be within walking distance at the train station. Breakfast offerings were fairly lavish, fresh and appetizing.
