Top Oban Hotel Reviews

Perle Oban Hotel & Spa

Perle Oban Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel could not have been situated in a better location! We arrived in the rain with luggage and bags in toe. And literally walked right across the street from the train station to the Pearle Oban. Nick at the front desk could not have been more pleasant and helpful with Oban information. Our room was spacious and well appointed. The bathroom too, they even supplied washcloths here. The modern shower here was incredible, with an easy to read temperature dial. We were able to unpack our toiletries bag on a spacious shelf as well. The continental breakfast bar was plenty and they also made eggs to order. We enjoyed seeing cheerful Beatrice at breakfast each morning! All in all, a perfect hub and great stay at this location."
