Good location and friendly staff. Very nice pub on site. Room was a postage stamp. Not recommended for 2 people. Shower/bathroom is so small, you need dry off in the actual room.

Great location and amazing staff. Just be prepared to park offsite and carry luggage up stairs. Other than that, the place had an amazing location and we had zero issues with sounds being right above a pub.

Our experience was fabulous from beginning to end. We were able to check in on arrival, and the staff always offer to carry your bags. Property is in a perfect location and we adored the town. Parking is not free but it is reasonably priced and very convenient with the lot being across the street. Wonderful staff! Thank you so much!

The Whisky Vaults is a good choice for accommodations in Oban. It is convenient to restaurants, trains and ferries. Rooms are cozy and beds are comfortable. The building is historic and interesting. The staff is friendly and helpful. Totally charming overall. (Note no elevator but staff will help with luggage.)

Our party included two couples in separate rooms. One room was comfortably sized, the other rather small including the bathroom space. Condition was good for an older property.

Great property. Room is large and a true king sized bed!! Love it. High ceilings and whiskey right downstairs. Easy to walk to food and shopping and easy check in.

It was clean but very, very small. I mean tiny. There’s no place to lounge in the morning since the small seating area by the bar is closed.

Fantastic little hotel in walking distance to everything in Oban. Street parking right in front of the hotel was available, and the hotels bar had 350 very interesting bottles of Scotch, and a very friendly and knowledgeable bartender. If I come back to Oban, I am booking here again for sure.
