My family booked two rooms at Alltavona Guest House in Oban for a one night stay. The rooms were lovely, with fun details and decorative accents, as was the entire guest house. The Alltavona is nicely located; just a quick walk from the center of town.

Cute place right next to the water

The place is right next to the water - unobstructed view. The 0.7 mile walk to center of Oban was nice in good weather but we got wet several time (expected this for October). Public transportation was hard to find so needed our car. Our room was a little small and cramped, but we could see other larger rooms. Check in and parking was a bit of a hassle. Great “Continental breakfast “ that included meats, cheeses, baked goods and more- well worth the modest cost
