I stayed here for 4 nights with my partner in April 2010. We were due to leave for Amsterdam the morning that the Icelandic volcano decided to interrupt with half of Europe's travel plans, so we looked around for somewhere that we could drive to spend a few nights and take our mind off our missed trip to that beautiful...

I had forgotten my power cable, went shopping round Oban to no avail, but that was no problem to the staff and I managed to recharge my laptop to keep me going for my day in Mull!!

Thank you ever so much for your review! I'm only glad I had the right power cable to help. I hope all went well in Mull and maybe we will see you again if you are ever up this way.

This hotel is a bit worn and tired in it's appearance, but adequate for what it is. When we arrived it was fairly quiet. The bar seemed only a place to frequent if you are a regular or local. I got the impression that guests staying in the hotel would feel out of place if they decided to drink in...

The accommodations were clean, warm and friendly. The staff went out of their way to help us and make our weekend holiday terrific. I would certainly recommend this hotel to travellers in Oban. Perfectly located to the rail station and ferry. Minutes from the pier and city centre.

Stayed here for a couple of days, big mistake. It was'nt even the depressing quality of the accommodation that was the main fault. The atmosphere in the place can best be described as tense and the service from the staff slightly intimidating, it makes you want to avoid them. I was glad to get out of the place. There are...

Thank you for taking the time to review the Kelvin Hotel. What can I say? Its hard to know how to reply here. Especially as the comments are so generalised. I am appalled at myself that someone was so unhappy here for 2 days and I knew nothing about it.

Perfect for short stay , clean but worn. Bathroom spotless. Not suitable for people with mobility problems as lots of stairs. Could not be handier for ferry and station. The breakfast was good but staff seemed a little jaded. Ran out of butter and brown bread...no potato scone or black pudding...its Scotland that should be provided always !! Would go...

Thanks for your very fair review. I really appreciate it. I totally take your comments on board about the breakfast - we will try to be more efficient in future! We have a fair amount of maintenance in store for the off peak months and to ensure better comfort for our guests. It sounds like you had a nice time...

This was and ok stay, both our breakfasts arrived at different times so i'd finished mine before the other had arrived, had i have waited it would have been cold and congealed. The booms were clean but basic compared to much more reasonable places we've stayed!!

No real welcome and room pointed out to us at top of stairs - offy u go with your heavy luggage. Room small, window propped open with a bit of wood and the fire escape out of the window engulfed in rust and not attached to the building. Breakfast: limited choice - one lady asked for a poached egg only...

Thanks for taking time to review the hotel. I'm sorry you did not enjoy your stay. We offer value for money accommodation at the Kelvin. We are often complimented on our breakfast service and think we offer a good all round choice of items - especially as our breakfast is included in the price even in high season. I think...

We stayed for two nights mainly to visit Isle Of Mull & surrounding area so it was the perfect location, also they allow dogs which included in the price, thats quite a good point I think as most hotels will charge for you to take your pet ! The staff were excellent (ALL OF THEM) Shauna(sorry if wrong spelling) was...

I am glad you enjoyed your stay in Oban and were able to take advantage of the fabulous scenery and yummy...
