Perle Oban Hotel & Spa
Excellent Location, just mins walk from the railway station and pier.

The Great Western Hotel
Very poorly maintained hotel and overly priced for what you get. Their excuse is it’s a “old building” and they are working on repairs but in my view this does not excuse the price point or lack of maintenance. Would not recommend and will never be back.
