Our stay at the Perle Hotel in Oban was truly enjoyable with a stunning sea view that made our visit special. The staff went above and beyond, helping us with special requests, which made us feel valued. However, the room was a bit warm at night due to the lack of air conditioning, which was one downside to an otherwise lovely experience. The dining options were also satisfactory, especially the breakfast, although there could have been more variety.

This hotel offers stunning views and a cozy atmosphere, making it a lovely spot for a getaway. The staff are remarkably helpful, and the spa services were a highlight of my stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel, making it a perfect spot for our honeymoon. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our experience was memorable, with thoughtful touches like a complimentary gift in our room. The views over the Caledonian waters were delightful, although parking was a bit of a challenge. The breakfast was a definite highlight, but a couple of aspects could be improved in the dining experience regarding portion sizes and pricing.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which features a modern design and an inviting spa area. The room was spacious and offered a beautiful view of the harbor, although I did notice a few scuff marks on the bathroom walls. The staff were genuinely friendly and quick to respond to any questions, lending a personalized touch to the experience. Unfortunately, the parking situation was a bit inconvenient, requiring us to park in a nearby train station, which was a hassle considering the price we paid. Overall, it was a good experience but with room for improvement.
