The Pierrooms is a great option for those looking to explore and stay in Oban on a budget. It has all the cleanliness and amenities of a full-blown hotel. The rooms are pretty small, but that wasn't an issue for us. The air conditioner in the room helps keep the room cool and comfortable, and keeps the air moving and from getting too humid. All in all, I would stay again!

This is a great spot for a good nights sleep. The rooms optimize space so it is meant to be a place to drop your bags. It’s clean well appointed and the value and location are phenomenal.

Highly recommend!

Very easy access, my phone didn’t sync, I called the telephone # provided on the door , the assistant that answered was very polite, kind & was very happy to let me in. My room was clean, looked new, bed was comfortable, hot water, everything I needed! I spent another night here on my way back. Same experience, clean, new, comfortable bed & hot water.

So happy we booked again

We were looking for easy access to the railway station and ferry port - Pierrooms could not have been closer to both. The room is small but we were so impressed with the overall cleanliness and comfort of the beds that we booked again for our return journey. The only improvement I would suggest is a small shelf for the top bunk.

Convenient location

The room appeared to be fairly clean, it was absolutely tiny, maybe 10 x 8 not including the bathroom. On our second day, the lights stopped working and it could not be fixed. The service was great and we got moved to another room.

Loved the location. Didn’t like faucet in sink not properly plumbed in and could not get any hot water in the shower.

6/10 Good

Overall was an easily accessible property, great location as it was near the train station and bus stands. Plenty of different food places nearby. Room was clean however, as there were no windows and it was such a small space, it was very hard to ventilate. Additionally, there is no front desk, which was not a problem in checking in as that is made quite simple, but is annoying during the stay as there was no one to quickly solve any issues that may arise. Would recommend for a short stay!

Facility new, well thoughtout for minimal size room. Perhaps interested; toilet drain leaked. Staff cleaned up and left extra towels. Very close trains, ferries, buses. I did not receive all emails from property they claimed sent to Expedia. Finalizing the stay was not enjoyable experience.

What a great place!

The room as advertised is quite small. I was there for five nights and had quite a few clothes. There were no drawers to put any clothes away only four hangers. It was okay because the bed had plenty of space underneath it for me to put my suitcase and pull it out when I needed different clothes. The decor of the room was very nice, done in red, grey, and black. The lighting options were excellent with switches conveniently located. What was truly fantastic was the accessibility to the train station (300 feet), to the Caledonian McBayne ferry (600 feet) and several restaurants within 200 feet including a very nice one right above the rooms. I was a solo traveler so this was absolutely perfect for me.
The griffin logo of Caledonian McBrayne ferries six hundred feet from my room. Provides transport to some of the Hebrides isles.

It is tucked away and very hard to find. The room is tiny and there are no windows so it is quite claustrophobic. It was clean and super convenient though. It was over priced.

Small modern room with no windows.

First thing to point out is that there are no windows in the rooms. Everything else is fine and modern, if a little compact. Good enough for a sleepover. One room not completely cleaned though - toilet was dirty and not flushed. Enough said. Staff were good and available at the end of a phone as there is no one on site.

4/10 Fair

The shower floor is very slippery. For a two night stay there are not enough towels, coffee, coffee cups, or anything that you need for a two night stay and it is an unmanned hotel so you can never get any supplies. Or Assistance. The beds are so high off the floor, elderly or shorter people cannot get into it as there are no stepstools. The room is so small you cannot turn around. There is also no window, so it feels like being in a broom closet. The bed is against the wall, so it is impossible for the person against the wall to get out. The bedding and location was excellent.

Comfortable room but musty smelling bathroom

The room was small but I know that when I booked it. It had everything I needed and the bed was comfortable. The major issue was the musty, damp smell in the shower room. It's windowless accommodation and I think this is the problem, or maybe the ventilation in the bathroom is just poor. I'm sure it's something that can be fixed but the smell was bad, even with the door closed, which definitely affected my overall opinion of the property. If not for this I would stay again.

This is a bare bones hotel for budget travelers. It offered the basics. Pros-Great location right off the harbor near the ferry. Easy to walk to everything. Felt safe. Cons-Parking is not included (however free street parking from 6pm-9am), spotty WiFi and small rooms. We used Expedia to book the room and somehow we never received an email on how to check in from pier rooms or Expedia. Not sure why and no information on the pier rooms website. This made for a frustrating experience upon arrival. The fishing/tackle store next door was able to help us by calling the sister hotel to pier rooms- god bless David!! The staff was amazing with helping get our room key, the staff being the front desk girl at the hotel and the maids cleaning the rooms!! All in all this place is good for one night.
