One of the main reasons for choosing Rowantree hotel was the parking at the rear of the hotel. The rooms are clean, comfortable and a good size. Our room over looked the carpark at the back but that was fine as it meant there was no traffic noise at all. The location is a short walk from the town centre,... More

Initially booked a different hotel in Oban until I read the reviews on this site so cancelled and went for Rowantree. As we wanted an early departure to catch the 05:45 ferry, having a night porter made Rowantree an easy choice. Also off-road parking behind the hotel gave us peace of mind. Receptionist offered us Breakfast before departure though we... More

We stayed here in March 2013 for a few days. Nice hotel, clean modern rooms, great nights sleep! Handy for walking around the town and harbour area. The pub directly opposite, The Tartan Bar, was really cosy too. Worth popping in. I would definately use this hotel again if I'm looking for somewhere to stay in Oban.

Great hotel situated on the main street in Oban(top end of town). Small but very comfortable room, pity that our room view was the carpark. Restaurant and bar great, also a great wee bar on the other side of the street

Room overlooked main road but double glazing kept noise out and heat in. Average double room with large comfy bed. Bathroom small but had bath and... More

On the outside it does not look that fantastic, but the service are nice and smiley, and the rooms are clean, spacy, have what is expected so overall its a nice hotel. It lies almost in the very center of Oban and yet we did not eat there, they have a restaurant and bar. Its a good tourist hotel.

We stayed here for 1 night having booked well in advance. Lucky we did as the place was full to bursting with electrical engineers travelling over to the Islands to repair the damage done by the snow storms, note that there was no snow at all in Oban... strange. The hotel is above a steak house on the main street... More

We stayed 3 nights in Oban this is in a great location to get to the bay and shops. The rooms are all refurbished and very modern and clean. The bathroom was very modern. The service was friendly and the breakfast was good. best of all it cost half the price of the other hotels!
