    Somewhat overpriced although a truly large room. Staff was somewhat reserved without being rude…borderline. Food prices in restaurant were overpriced when balancing quality.

    Excellent location and beautiful big rooms.

    Sadly my sleep was disturbed throughout the night by drunken shouting from the jetty/bus stop opposite the hotel and between the hotel and the railway station and the ferry terminal. I know it disturbed other guests too. I think it is a great shame that such a lovely hotel has this happening on its doorstep. When I told my sister in law, who has a flat in Oban, she said "welcome to the West Highlands at the weekend". I don't think the hotel or its guests should have to put up with this.

    The hotel itself was super, as were our rooms as I had paid extra for sea views

    The parking for the hotel needs to be solidified. I would much prefer to park closer but I do understand their predicament.

    The rooms were were very well appointed and comfortable. A beautiful town and good shopping and a variety of dining options.

    Great place to stay on the Oban seaside

    It's an older building, and our room showed that age in a noticeable slope from the bay window to the center of the room. The bathroom, while nicely appointed, was a bit small. While it was a wonderful room, it was not cheap.

    The Perle is a beautiful hotel overlooking the water, just steps from the Oban train station. The hotel is beautifully appointed, and the staff were extremely helpful throughout our stay. We had a lovely room (suite with sea views) with an unbeatable view over Oban Bay, set in a romantic bay window. The bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast was outstanding! (best black pudding I've ever had)

    The Perle Oban: city-center perfection.

    Beautifully decorated room with a spacious, modern bathroom. We had a lovely view of the waterfront, which was ideal. The bed/bedding was extremely comfortable. We appreciated the coffee/tea station, which was well-stocked, along with complimentary water and cookies. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel is centrally located so we walked most of the time to local destinations. The seafood in Oban, especially on the pier, is exceptional. If you want a perfect city-center spot, The Perle Oban is the place to be!
