Columba Hotel Oban Guest Reviews
Excellent location, right by the harbour. Easy access to the town. Parking difficult, 8 spaces (for 40+ rooms!) allocated in small carpark outside, otherwise it's pay and display (9am - 6pm), so get there early, especially in the height of the season. First impressions were not good. The whole building could do with a lick of paint and a flat roofed extension to the side is very tatty. Inside, it is dated and could do with some ventilation (some parts smelt like the British Transport Hotels from the 60's, but later, a fire door was propped open to bring in some fresh air - not ideal). The lift is a real museum piece - max two plus luggage and couldn't stop at the second floor. The room (305) was spacious and gave a great view across the harbour to the islands. Unfortunately, the en-suite toilet had not been cleaned from the previous occupant. Some of the interior has been renovated, very traditionally. Breakfast was good and the staff friendly. Recommendation - the jury's out.

Part of the service being a bit slow may well have been because it was low season.

Lovely hotel Friendly and helpful staff ( let us put cases in our room before it was ready for us) Good location Dinner only served until 8.00pm though which was too early for us so did not eat there
