Top notch! Great location, decor, amenities and staff! Alltavona House is a 5-10 minute easy walk to Oban center. It is waterfront so has expansive views of Oban bay. The check in process is easy and the staff is very friendly and helpful. I really appreciated the high comfort of rooms and toiletry products supplied (including hair conditioner!). This was a repeat stay for us and I would not hesitate to stay again. We did stay in a water view room which was an added bonus to our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Alltavona House.
Great location within walking distance to the city center. Our family stayed in 2 different rooms. The beds were comfy, rooms were clean, and the owner Carol, made us feel at home.
We just wish we could have stayed longer.

* location was perfect with lovely views over Oban, the harbour and the islands.
* bed was quite comfortable and the shower had a good force to it.
*manager/owner? was contactable by mobile which was handy as we needed to ask a question.
*Too much clutter in the room. 7 cushions in total on the bed which we had to store under the window. They were not necessary. Had to put dressing table ornaments in one of the drawers so that there was room to lay out our stuff. Ornaments are not necessary in a hotel/B&B. It makes the cleaner’s job more difficult and time consuming.
*The only wardrobe had a very narrow depth to it so couldn’t really unpack clothes to store in there. It was already full of some other bedding anyway.
*The bedside tables had lamps on them that were absolutely huge and just got in the way. Smaller ones which were more suitable for the tables would have left more room to store reading material, tissues etc, things that you need close to hand when in bed.
*Hooks in the bathroom would have been helpful for hanging up night attire/dressing gowns.
*The bathroom tap was an awkward design and dripped.
*No-one cleaned the room yesterday, however it was not immediately clear that we had to hang a notice on the door handle asking for this service. B&B’s usually have relevant information on top of the dressing table but not in this case. There was a Do Not Disturb sign for putting outside but we didn’t think to turn it over for the sign that asked for cleaning.
*I messaged to ask for clean towels and was asked to locate some from the cupboard next to our room but had to sift through them for ones that smelled and looked fresh. Some of them were stained.
*The bed set was clean but quite old so didn’t present a fresh look.
