Great location for a short stay
Stayed here on either side of our trip due to early/late ferries. The Corran Guest House is in such a convenient location with a great pub attached which did really nice food and had a great atmosphere. The rooms itself were clean, super comfortable and quiet. Would happily stay here again.
Very comfortable room, with lovely sea view. Easy parking, adjacent to the hotel (£1 per hour between between 9am and 6pm). Short stroll around the bay to Oban ferry port. Excellently equipped guest kitchen / diner, with fantastic bay views.
Convenient location, the room was very clean and had everything we needed. Loved the honesty box self service breakfast system in the guest kitchen, again it was spotless. We ate at the attached pub and enjoyed some fantastic live music. Food was great and hotel guests get a 10% discount. Cannot fault it!
