The Manor House was built in 1780 as the Duke of Argyll's Oban estate. Great consideration has been given to preserve the elegance, charm and atmosphere of its past. There are eleven tastefully decorated bedrooms each with en-suite bathroom. Informal lunches are served in the Bar and lovely Drawing Room which, like the beautifully restored Dining Room, have magnificent views over Oban Bay, the adjacent islands and the mountains of Morvern and Isle of Mull. more » « less

We stayed at the Manor House in order to catch the first ferry to Mull in the morning. We were very pleased with the location and the room was lovely, if a little on the small side. The bathroom was very small and a bit dated, but everything we needed was there and the view was stunning. The dinner was... more

This establishment is certainly the jewel in Oban's crown. Located very centrally and only minutes to the town centre by foot, Manor House is perched in a small hill along side the harbour. The house is inviting and the staff efficient and friendly. The room is very generous, very well pointed with quality furnishings, a lovely large LCD TV with... more

Our second visit to this splendid hotel located in a superb location overlooking the sea, quiet but only a few minutes walk from the centre of Oban and the ferryport. Stunning views from the seaview rooms and worth paying the extra. Very good and professional service from all the staff including the manager. Spotlessly clean bathroom with top notch toiletries... more

We have just visited this hotel and can't rate it highly enough. Our room was very cosy with a lovely view across the bay and a very comfortable bed. The hotel decor is very tasteful with the use of strong colours in the dinning room and bar area which worked well with excellent lighting and attention to detail. The food... more

We've stayed at the Manor House a few times in the past year or two, and always had a pleasant stay. This time we had a few niggles mostly related to the restaurant. It may be that it was the immediate contrast between the Manor House and the Auchendean Lodge in the Cairngorms where we had stayed immediately preceding our... more

I have just returned from a one night stay in this Hotel, and can't wait to return as it was so good. The rooms are beautifully decorated though quite small but it fits in with the cottage style of the hotel, in fact the bed was the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in . At night there was... more

I booked this hotel based on it being the highest ranked on tripadvisor and upon arrival was a little dissapointed with the size and comfort of the room. The view was spectacular (out of the window we could see the whole harbour) but the room was a bit cramped and the bed not the most comfortable even through cleanliness, decoration... more

We really enjoyed our stay here. The rooms and beds are small but that is true of most places in the UK anyway. The water views are quite nice though it has to be said one side of the hotel partly overlooks a dock that is about 50 feet away. The room was nicely decorated and the entire hotel has... more

Stayed 3 nights in Oban, exceptionally wet and windy (even the ferries were cancelled for one day), but our stay at the Manor House made up for this. The accomodation and the food were both first-class. Our room was most comfortable and had a lovely view of the harbour and the bay. The bathroom was small but well-equipped. The main... more
