I took a group holiday to Scotland and stayed at this hotel for 4 nights. I had read some poor reviews on here so was a little worried that I might have a grumpy group on my hands. Nothing was further from the truth. Every member of the group was impressed with their rooms......many overlooking the bay. What a perfect... more

I have occasion to stay at The Caledonian Hotel perhaps 6 times per year - the staff are unfailingly pleasant and helpful, the rooms (which vary in an old premises) are unfailingly clean and well-presented. The location is convenient to shops, ferries, bus and rail transport - possibly less handy for church. Parking is fine overnight, best to feed the... more

ROAST in the restaurant was not exactly the dish of the day in the Caledonian Hotel Oban during my recent midweek break. We were greeted by Mediterranean weather on arrival, and our coach arrived a few minutes late, so there was no time to settle in and were herded into the restaurant for our evening meal. Delighted by being given... more

Our room however had an awful view over... more

The main reason to choose this hotel would most likely be its location, as the former "Station Hotel" just across the train station, and also not too far away from the ferry terminal. The hotel is very clean and looks fresh overall. The building also has nice period features, in the reception area, and in the main dining room. The... more

For some reason this hotel was less than the sum of its parts. The location is excellent for the train or ferry, the staff was friendly and efficient (if occasionally harassed), and, aside from a little wear in spots, the hotel was clean and well maintained. The only real complaint I have is the extremely firm mattress on the bed. more

spent 2 nights here on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis. Room had great view over bay and location is right next to taxi rank, bus stop, train station and ferry terminal. THIS IS THE PROBLEM! We could hear every car and person going by and both Fri and Sat night were kept awake by drunks trying to get a... more
