    Just a perfect match for a stopover in Oban with good value for money. The owners really went out of their way to accommodate our need for an extra bed by rearranging the furniture. Make sure to check the breakfast hours if you're in a hurry.

    small shower

    The shower cubicle in the room was quite small, making it a bit challenging for anyone with a larger frame to maneuver comfortably. the limited dinner menu left something to be desired. options were sparse, which might not cater to everyone’s tastes. I found the bar area a tad cramped at busy times, affecting the overall vibe when trying to unwind.

    I had a lovely stay at Lochnell Arms. The views from my room were breathtaking, really enjoyable to wake up to. The food in the restaurant impressed me, especially the breakfast, which had a variety of options. Staff provided friendly and personalized service throughout my visit. The room was comfortable and warm, making my stay relaxing. A few areas needed attention, though. Some furniture looked worn, and the bathroom could have used better cleaning, especially around the edges. There was also some noise from the bar area in the evening, which disturbed my sleep a bit. Still, overall, I felt the staff’s efforts made a significant difference.

    Stunning views and hearty breakfasts!

    The view from the dining area is really awesome! The host is super friendly and whips up some great cooked breakfasts. finding our room was kinda tricky with those steep, dark stairs—def not for everyone. Our room was tiny, so not much space for luggage.

    beautiful terrace
    weak shower

    The staff provided a warm welcome and made our stay enjoyable. The shower in the room lacked pressure. Lovely terrace view and fantastic food options, including local seafood. It can get noisy between rooms due to poor soundproofing. Enjoyed playing darts in the cozy bar area.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the breathtaking views from my sea view room at Lochnell Arms Hotel. The cozy ambiance and well-kept areas made it a delight, and the staff were attentive, ensuring we felt right at home during our stay.

    Better accessibility features for seniors would be helpful.

    great value dinner
    cozy bar area
    special diet accommodation
    subpar breakfast
    tiny shower cubicle

    Dinner at Lochnell Arms was a steal amongst Oban's culinary gems, and the cozy bar area was perfect for winding down. Plus, they catered to my special diet like champions!

    Breakfast could be improved. it was a lukewarm cup of coffee and an overcooked breakfast that left me wanting more. The shower cubicle was tiny, not suited for anyone larger.
