Before we arrived at the hotel, my wife and I had read some of the scathing reviews and comments about this place, but decided to go ahead and book our trip anyway and find out for ourselves. After all, if the food was that bad, we could eat out, and just use the hotel as a base to sleep at... more

Stayed here last night as was working this morning in Oban, The hotel is very basic and well I guess you get what you pay for. Lady at reception was really nice and friendly. Room was small and I didnt feel safe in the lift. The main problem with the hotel is that you hear everything from toilets flushing, talking,... more

I booked a weekend trip through easy-breaks to the Regent for husband and my mum and dad. £72 pp for 2 nights DBB and free bar 8pm-10pm. With the price in mind and previous reviews read we all had open minds. The hotel is clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. We all had a great time. If the... more

Oban was beautiful. Really impressed with the frontage of the hotel. Original Art Deco. Staff lovely, really pleasant. I had a room with a sea view. Really spacious and clean. Only down side was food. It was awful!! I would stay there again but find somewhere else to eat. more

My husband and I stayed here for two nights. We could not fault the hotel in any way. Staff were friendly, food was good. Only downside was the hotel has no parking. We parked across the road. It cost us about £8.00 to park from the Friday till Sunday - which we did not think was excessive. We would stay... more

This clearly has once been a fine hotel: very well located on the seafront. First problem was the lack of parking - the dozy lad on Reception wasn't even interested in recommending which of the pay-and-display car parks was the best choice: in fact they had different hourly rates and a maximum stay of 2 hours, so I was glad... more

We booked the Regent Hotel for a cheeky weekend getaway and we loved it. Oban is fantastic, even though it rained incessantly. The hotel is definitely not luxurious by any stretch of the imagination, but it has wonderful character and history, the staff are so sweet and obliging. We can't wait to go back! more

It has taken me a while to write, but looking at booking here again for our anniversary I saw some not very good reviews. We planned our wedding reception her sometime back June 07, after having a civil ceremony at Barcaldine Castle (which was also fantastic) Originally we were a bit out off by some of the reviews and worried... more
