No idea about other comments but despite the opulence the decor is tasteful & clearly high quality. Having china cups & cut glass wine glasses as well as chocolate mints & luxury shortbread in the rooms was fabulous. Maureen is a lovely hostess who informed us of the dogs prior to booking - they are delightful & the place is... More

We stayed here for 4 nights. We had our little son as well. Myself and my husband had a great time visiting Oban for the first time. Our stay here was just perfect. Maureen gave us a very warm hospitality throughout our stay. The place is well beautifully done and each room has its own theme and matched well accordingly.... More

Maureen was very welcoming on arrival offering tips of where to eat and places to see, as it was our first visit to Oban. The room although small was tastefully decorated everything toning in, with all the expected facilities, very comfortable, the bathroom was very clean and of a high standard. The breakfast was a good hearty breakfast and Maureen... More

The welcome I received when arriving was warm and very welcoming, the passage areas are beautifully decorated as you walk up the stairs to your room. My room was also beautifully done and had a lovely theme for colour and everything matched this copper theme. The bathroom was also beautiful with a light up mirror and lovely bath and shower....

The room was very over priced for what we got. The room was ok but quiet small & the bathroom hadn't been cleaned from the last person who had stayed which was disappointing. Breakfast was good although the owner had three dogs which were in the kitchen & we did find a few hairs on the plate. This certainly wasn't... More

We stayed for two nights. The furnishings described on this site in so many superlatives were rather over-the-top for me. They have gone for a look of opulence which works to a point, but the room are a bit poky and the amount of knick-knacks on the few surfaces provide little room for one personal possessions. The bathroom was lovely... More

We stayed here recently and found high cliff to be very good overall. Close to town in a quiet location, with parking on site. Our room was nice but compact, however had a large en suite. Breakfast each day was excellent varied choice and freshly cooked. Owners friendly and gave good advice about eating out,trips etc. Overall would give 4.5.

Stayed here as part of our annual multi-night trip to multiple destinations in Scotland. Several previous visits to Oban but previous preferred accommodation appeared to have closed down so - fairly randomly - we chose High Cliff. The house really is very spectacular, our room was like a little bit of Las Vegas, seemingly no expense spared on beautiful furnishings,... More

We stayed at High Cliff a couple of years ago and when we needed accommodation in Oban again there was only one place to go. The rooms are immaculate and beautifully furnished to a high standard and the breakfast is still the best we've had in any place we have stayed including the "best" hotels. Lovely warm welcome from Maureen... More

I stayed here for just one night with a friend but it was so lovely! Maureen was a delight, the accommodations were beautiful, and the location was ideal. Took a lovely stroll into town at night for supper and had a delicious breakfast the next morning! I would highly recommend staying here when in town - and to stay for... More
