The Cuilfail Hotel is wonderfully located between the hills and you can reach the coast within 5 minutes by car. It is very quiet up there, a beautiful place to relax. The hotel itself is really old and you will believe the storys of Queen Victoria staying there. The rooms and the furniture could need a little mending but nevertheless... more

Not a great Hotel but not terrible either. Room was a bit shabby and the bathroom could really do with a clean. Nice building, public areas are OK. Food plain but acceptable. Breakfast room was a bit chilly. more

A beautiful building filled with welcoming staff. The rooms are freshly decorated with pristine bathrooms, beds are comfortable obviously tailored to fit the broader spectrum of prefferences.

From the tacky plastic tablecloths in the dining room to the fact that we were offered a can of Tennant's when we asked for bottled lager, to the fact that the... more

This was the most disappointing of the hotels and guesthouses we have just visited (5 in all with four couples so we saw a wide range of rooms). As mentioned in another review the showers were similar to those you expect in a caravan and ours was just a trickle. Apparently the plumber was supposed to have fixed the problem... more

We thought the Cuilfail was a lovely old building, although could do with a wee bit more sprucing up. It is a half hour drive from Oban - all roads from the hotel are scenic. The food was wonderful - but endorse the comment made by another reviewer that they could do with at least one real ale. The bar... more

It was hard finding a nice place to stay with two young children, but the Cuilfail fit the bill. Wonderful owners, chef and setting. It is a long windy drive to Oban (a good half hour), and there is NOTHING but the hotel in the town- but all that is made up for in how lovely this place is. Beds... more
