Lovely sizeable room overlooking Oban bay with great bay window to sit at looking over to Kerrera and back towards Oban Ferry Terminal.
Good sized bathroom with nice walk in shower plus toiletries provided.
Room had a small living area with table & chairs plus a fridge. Nice touch with complimentary Tunnocks tea cakes plus Irn Bru.
In addition set of binoculars provided which we made good use of to check out all the nice views from the room.
Don't feel there was anything missing

It was a lovely place to stay for 3 nights. Clean and tidy. Bed was comfy. Very welcoming. Oban is a lovely place to visit. You forget all your troubles and enjoy the beautiful scenery. People are friendly. Most enjoyable experience.
I can honestly say I don't have any faults.

We loved the little touches:
Irn Bru and tea cakes
Fruit and crisps at door
The view was lovely
Free car parking
Close walk to boat/shops
Rooms clean and replenished
Fridge in room
Spacious room
Binoculars to look out at the water
General decor lovely
Ice bucket wasn't on
No one to greet you to say hello (there was a phone number but didnt want to bother anyone).
Breakfast facilities were fine (porridge pots, breakfast bars and yogurt) but it would be better to get a cooked breakfast included or partner up with another company/cafe/hotel to go for breakfast.

Fantastic location with the perfect view
Room was huge with a super king bed which was so comfortable we had the best sleep in ages
Everything was thought of from lovely toiletries to iron and hairdryer
Well stocked fridge with yogurt orange juice and water
Breakfast bars and porridge pots teas and coffees
This suited us much better than a cooked breakfast but there are plenty places nearby for those
Oh and some lovely sherry, irn bru and tunnocks teacakes
Fantastic people who run it and helpful
That I have to wait till next year to come back

The property was in an excellent location overlooking the bay and within a short walk of the town centre . Our ground floor room was tastefully decorated with comfortable armchairs in the bay window and a very comfortable bed. Also had good parking. The room was a good size with so many little elegant touches, not least the complimentary sherry!

Location was awesome
The mattress was a little lumpy
10.0 / 10.0
The breakfast was totally unexpected, and greatly appreciated as we were running for the ferry in the morning. We also appreciated the other snacks and treats left in the room and around the house. Such wonderful touches. The room and house were clean and well decorated. There were two easy chairs in the room as well as a little table and chairs. The bed was wonderfully comfortable. Everything worked. It really couldn’t have been improved upon.
It couldn’t have been better - the only reason I marked down the staff was because I didn’t meet any of the staff, but that was fine because their non-contact system worked perfectly.

My son and I loved everything! It was comfortable, quiet, beautiful view, spacious and welcoming. Iona was so helpful and welcoming.
It would be ideal if they served breakfast, since they have the facilites, but it didn't affect how wonderful this place was to stay at.

Our stay at Mackays was exceptional. The room was spacious with a big, comfortable bed and lovely reclining chairs but the real star was the incredible view we had over Oban bay :) - it was stunning and a highlight of our holiday here! Breakfast isn't served but was substituted by porridge, yoghurt and cereal bars in the room which was absolutely fine and meant we didn't have to rush out looking for breakfast. We used several of the restaurants recommended by Mackays and all were lovely - particularly Ee-Usk. The location is excellent as we were able to walk to Oban distillery, the restaurants and the harbour for boat trips - and Ganavan Sands was beautiful, a short drive away. It was hard to leave, so we had a final coffee on the terrace before letting go! Thank you - will definitely be recommending xx
All good!

The hotel had a spacious room with a stunner view through a bay window, a good bed and all you needed.
It may feel a little weird to some never te meet a real person, but for us it was no issue.

We had a huge ground floor room with a nice view and binoculars to watch all the activity on the water. While breakfast wasn't served, our fridge was stocked daily with yoghurt, juice and snacks. Fruit and some other treats were available in the hallway. There was sherry in the room to enjoy in the evening and chairs outside to enjoy the breakfast snacks and an evening drink, with a view. The address is beyond the town centre, which means less noise and traffic.
Everything was just fine.

The room was great and had everything we needed. Bed was comfortable and toilet / shower really good and clean.

For a B&B that didn't do breakfast the facilities provided were excellent, as well as the fridge in the room. If I was going again I would ask for a sea view.

The room was clean and very comfortable with attention to detail, yogurts in the fridge, an ice maker in the hall and fruit available. The view from the ground floor room was stunning. Outside was a seating area that enabled you to enjoy a drink with a magnificent view over the sea wall. We found the owners very approachable and extremely helpful.
An impressive building, welcoming feel and beautifully decorated too.

Very spacious, comfortable and well-equipped room. Although they no longer provide a full breakfast, there were plenty of breakfast supplies and other snacks in the room (and in the lobby), which was much appreciated. The location was great - on the waterfront a 5-10 minute walk from the town centre.
The only minor issue we had was a little trouble locking the door to our room some times.

No breakfast facilities. I think they should provide a cereal breakfast for each room. It would be be ver6 easy to do as they have all the items
