My husband and I stayed here for one night on May 8th (I wish it was for longer!!) Having arrived into Oban and not previously booked any hotel for the night, we called Glenrigh Guest House and they had vacancies. We were in room 8 ... which looks over the bay. Unfortunately the weather was wet, windy and cold but... More

We stayed at the Glenrigh Guest house for a couple of nights, and felt very comfortable during our stay. The room was clean and spacious with a lovely view of the bay. Breakfast was excellently cooked, there was a large variety of dishes to choose from, including vegetarian options, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The parking is very... More

First time staying at Glenrigh on the way to Mull and what a lovely guest house. Room was very nice, clean and tidy and a spectacular view across the bay. Nice size room with LCD TV and complimentary WiFi internet which came in useful. The landlady was very pleasant and welcoming. The full Scottish breakfast was excellent, very filling. Home... More

Weekend break. We were given a room overlooking Oban bay. The landlady and her staff go the extra mile in many ways. Lovely spacious room. The hotel is situated in a quiet part of the town within easy reach of the shops and restaurants.

We discovered the Glenrigh about five years ago and it's become our must-stay destination. Its location on the Esplanade is perfect and it has ample private parking and is within easy walking distance to town. We stayed here last weekend and we had a great view from our room window of the unfortunate whale in the sound of Kerrera and... More

We were late booking this year and chanced our arm asking for a room overlooking the bay, unfortunately they were unable to give us this but we were very pleasantly surprised as the room was fantastic. It was very spacious and comfortable with lovely... More

Stayed at Glenrigh Guest House over the Easter school break. The guest house is in a lovely position with unobstructed views of Oban Bay and beyond. This vista also included a perfect location to do a bit of whale spotting, where to everybody excitement a Sperm whale was spotted a couple yards from the the Guest House. Rooms were just... More

Just returned from our trip to Oban and our stay at Glenrigh...the guesthouse is in a fabulous position with views across to the islands. Our room was spacious, clean and very comfortable and the breakfast was well worth getting up for. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly and we will be returning soon. P&D Roberts.
