I loved the ‘old-world’ atmosphere and the attitude of trust placed in the guests. Our room was so quiet and peaceful. We dined in Markie Dans in the evening and I loved the friendliness, the food, and the toe-tapping Scottish music played by a young accordion player. I would highly recommend Corran House for your stay in Oban!

Great location for a short stay

Stayed here on either side of our trip due to early/late ferries. The Corran Guest House is in such a convenient location with a great pub attached which did really nice food and had a great atmosphere. The rooms itself were clean, super comfortable and quiet. Would happily stay here again.

Stayed in a room 7 for 2 nights. Matress on a bed needs changing, due to a masive dent in a middle. Kitchen in a hotel has everything needed for a stay. Car park is next to a hotel, £1 per hour, free after 6 p.m. Location is good.

This is a waterfront property. We had a room with a private bathroom and the view of the loch. Gorgeous picture to wake up to. Bar downstairs did not bother us at all even we slept with open windows ( no air conditioning). Room was clean and bigger than in some European hotels we stay. Staff is friendly. The communal kitchen downstairs has refrigerators for guests and fully equipped. Also it is fridge with a food you can buy. The only negative experience is someone decided to smoke at 5 am right under our window (front door of the house) and smoke went directly to our room. But I can’t blame hotel for it.

Very enjoyable stay

My wife and i atayed 1 night at this hotel and we enjoyed our stay. The hotel itself is very central to Oban and we booked a room with a sea view and the room was spacious and had a lovely sea view. The room was very clean and tidy, and downstairs has a bar called Markie dans which serves good food & drink
