Lovely boutique style hotel close to pier and amenities. Lovely clean modem room. Nice shower room. We’re staying in a different room for our second night and hotel very kindly gave us early access.

The Randal was very clean and comfortable. The staff were lovely and breakfast was great! We were happy with our choice to choose The Randal. It was only a 5 minute walk from the Oban Train Station. I would highly recommend this hotel

6/10 Good

When we arrived the rooms were not ready but the reception area toilet was not working so we had to leave the hotel to find a bathroom after our 3 hour drive there. Also there is no lift and the stairway is very narrow. It was difficult for me to get our large North Face rolling duffel bags up to the room 3 floors up. The staff seemed indifferent to our arrival. Choice of hotels is limited in Oban but I would try the Perle Oban Hotel in the future. We had 5 people in 3 rooms.

Good for a quick stay
Pros: Spacious room. Impressive water pressure in the shower. Everything in great condition. Location is central. Good breakfast. Cons: The wall is paper-thin; you can hear everything in the hallway. Staff did everything they were supposed to, but they could be more friendly.

Clean and comfortable
Clean, comfortable hotel close to the railway station and town centre. I had a small room and the hotel were honest and said it was probably best suited to solo travellers or short stays. The room was big enough but the bathroom was tiny. Fine for solo travellers though. Very clean and comfortable.
