This normally peaceful town is invaded during summer when tourists use it as a base to visit the Inner Hebrides islands such as Mull, Lismore and Coll, supporting its status as the Gateway to the Isles.
The horseshoe-shaped Oban Bay is sheltered by Kerrera Island with its spectacular Gylen Castle. Award-winning seafood restaurants and lively pubs line George Street and the waterfront of Corran Esplanade adjacent to the harbour.
Take a short walk up the hill to McCaig’s Tower, a structure based on the Roman Colosseum, for the finest views of Oban’s centre and the outer islands.

Admire the coastal scenery as you travel a bit out of town to the 7th-century ruins of Dunollie Castle, home of the Clan MacDougall. The Firth of Lorn gives visitors a fanatstic opportunity to try some sea kayaking.

Oban is a bustling busy little town with many visitors and many others using the towns ferries to travel to the popular Scottish Islands !
Lots of shopping available,
Plenty of places to eat and drink to suit any budget and gift shops galore probably for those with plenty of spare cash

Oban is an absolutely beautiful coastal town with great access to the rest of the Highlands. The ferries were very easy to use and we had a wonderful time exploring the Isle of Mull and travelling past the Isle of Kerrera on the way. Also make sure to head towards Dunollie Castle and take the tour round - a great time if you enjoy history or stories of the clans.
All of the food establishments that we went to were delicious and had great options. Highly recommend the ceilidh dancing on a Monday and Thursday night as it was a cracking time.

Oban is a great base to explore the wider area or where you start you exploration of the islands. Lots of great pubs and restaurants. Good shopping facilities nearby if doing a self catering holiday m.
The hosts were kind and efficient. We enjoyed the room and the location. The small bar in the hotel was managed by the owner and he offered us a taste of whiskey and recommended local excursions. Breakfast was large and made to order, and tasty. I would say this was the best value and best location of our whole trip in Scotland. Onsite parking and beautiful grounds whit a view of the bay. We felt very well taken care of!
I highly recommend!
We liked the peaceful location , but it was still close enough to the town centre. The apartment had tasteful decor and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed. Immaculate. It was so nice to have the kitchenette, compared to being in a hotel, with people coming and going all the time etc.
Was a real treat. Home from home. Free parking spot too, rare in Oban!
Great location on waterfront at harbor. Plenty of on-site parking. Some parking allocated to hotel, other spaces in lot were free overnight, so no problem there. Very convenient to local pubs and restaurants. Nicely sized rooms. All around good location and good stay. Really fun little pub fight across the street - check it out. PLUS, Oban Distillery is right there!
Great location for an overnight stay just outside of Oban (5 mile drive to catch a ferry to Mull the next day). Dinner options were fantastic - so good I returned for an evening meal on my way home too without the overnight stay. Very nice pub as part of the hotel with outside seating - which is very nice with good weather.
Perfect location with an unobstructed view of the ocean. The room was beautiful and very well appointed with wonderful touches like a refrigerator with cold water and snacks provided daily. Daily sherry was provided too. The hotel was clean and quiet and we couldn’t have asked for a moreperfect stay.
A smart boutique hotel overlooking the harbour entrance to Oban and a 10 minute walk to the town centre. Excellent modern decor with vintage touches. Guest focused with lovely touch in having an honesty box for the bar. Member of staff Rachel was so welcoming and made our stay so memorable.
Great views, location and services. Room and bathroom were very comfortable. The hotel was full and had enough space to park car at the front or at the back. The room that we rented with views overlooking the sea was something very special, as was Oban in its whole.
The hotel is in a good location in Oban - right on the Esplanade - and has parking, although there is a charge. The rooms have superb views of all the ferries coming and going to the islands. Breakfast was very good. Staff were very pleasant.
I liked everything about this hotel, could not find any faults. Rooms immaculate good size , spotlessly clean. Staff very friendly, couldn’t do enough for you. Excellent breakfast and evening meal. View onto Oban bay beautiful.
This beautifully renovated boutique hotel has been our favorite while visiting Scotland. Staff was wonderfully accommodating, especially Cameron, food was delicious, and the room appointments were comfortable and beautiful.
Everything was perfect 👍 Very clean room and excellent view from the window.As we arrived in Oban a little early, we contacted the hotel and we were accommodated earlier without any problems.Thank you very much ☺️.
One of the cheaper hotels in oban so there can be no complaints really , you get what you pay for, we had a great sea view in a large room, very quirky hotel and nice staff especially the young girl behind the bar
The location, staff, and facilities were fantastic. They were extremely kind and accommodating and the building itself is full of classic seaside hotel charm. I won't hesitate to book again next time I'm in Oban.
I booked the hotel at the last moment since my train to Oban was late and I missed the last ferry connection of the day to Iona, yet even on a weekend they were able to accommodate me.
Lovely stay at the Columba Hotel in Oban. Lovely room with 3 windows overlooking the port area - it was lovely watching the view. Very comfy beds too and decent sized shower
Meet with a smile when we arrived, rooms are spotless and in lovely condition.
Would have no reason to not stay in this hotel on our next visit to Oban.
