Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Friendly staff, particularly Nathaniel who waited on us during dinner. Great food, nice location. It's an old hotel and perhaps some of the decor needs some level of updating but totally adequate for our needs. Room had a great view over the Oban and the sea. The lift wasn't working when we were there, which wasn't a particular problem for us.
