Badly let down - will not book a Muthu hotel again
Where to start! We were not informed that the hotel was closed and that our booking was moved to a different hotel. We only found out when we got there and contacted the central reservations. There was no pool or sauna at the replacement hotel, and no parking. It was their good luck that the public parking was free that weekend because of a winter festival. The room was dreadful - far too small for two beds, we could only move around one at a time due to lack of space. The integrated hospitality tray plug didn't have a socket within reach. We had booked a room with sea view - what we got was a tiny room with a tiny window out to the side of an old, dilapidated building. No compensation was offered either for the lack of facilities, the absence of onsite parking or for the awful bedroom.

Beaware that they are currently closed. The booking here still went through and you're supposed to go to a sister branch, apparently. I didn't know until I got to the hotel and there was just a paper notive on the door.

Have stayed in this hotel several times and am never disappointed. The hotel is in an excellent location and is always very clean. I also appreciate how close it is for walking into the town. I would like to mention that the staff were once again very friendly and welcoming, and nothing was too much trouble. I plan to go back to Oban soon and I know this will be the hotel I use again next time.

We arrived at the hotel in a howling rainstorm and we enjoyed sitting in the lobby until our room was ready. We ate in the hotel dining room: OK food; nothing to rave about. The room itself was advertised as having a view of the bay which it did have--but very small window indeed. Pleasant staff.
