Family Hotels & Resorts in Lochgilphead from AU$124

"Lovely hotel, a bit outdated, but very comfortable. In fact, the mattress was so comfortable that I called the hotel to find out what brand it was. "

"Loved the older building with updated features that made for a very comfortable stay. Very clean, nice room overlooking the harbor with small convenient kitchenette. Excellent comfortable king bed with convenient electrical charging capability on both sides. Very convenient location for access to the downtown area including the ferry, bus and train stations, but far enough from bustle and noise- very quiet. A fine continental breakfast with a great coffee maker for cappuccinos and more. Really enjoyed spending time in the cozy onsite pub and blethering a bit with the very congenial and accommodating host, with a good selection of drafts and extensive assortment of fine whiskys (wee suggestion: I would have loved a real dartboard 😉). I really enjoyed our three nights there and eagerly look forward to the next time we can visit Oban and revisit the Kelvin for our next stay. Highly recommended!"

"Great stay. Enjoyed the hike around the castle and along the shore."

"We booked this hotel specifically for the private spa. Ideally it would be a little more private but it was a lovely experience overall. "

"Fantastic welcome from reception staff who were very friendly. Managed to find a space in the small car park at the back which was a . As I walked up the stairs, I was slightly worried as the carpets are extremely worn and tatty - coming away from the walls in places. However, upon entering my room, I was relieved to find it beautifully decorated and clean. The bathroom looked new and the shower was very powerful. I will note that the shampoo holder was broken, though. Having breakfast included was great - I headed down and unfortunately the lady seated me but did not tell me that there was a buffet so I did spend a few minutes sat there waiting for someone to take my order before I realised I needed to go in the next room and help myself. It would’ve been nice if she had explained that when she sat me down! Breakfast was wonderful, tasty with lots of choice and there was a proper coffee machine, which is always appreciated. Checkout was easy. I just dropped the keys and I was asked if everything had been okay. Will definitely be returning."

"We absolutely loved our stay with at the Lorne Galley hotel. From our friendly welcome to the hospitality. We had a really wonderful stay. Just felt like home. Thanks for the tips on the Viaduct stop over for a picture.. was an incredible spot. Will be back for sure! And loved the dogs!! Thanks again. "

"Fantastic hotel which has clearly had a lot of work done in recent times. I was greeted warmly by Ricky and checked in to Room 2, which was massive - and simply perfect for my (5 stone) greyhound, as he had space to move. The Royal Marine is one of 2 dog friendly hotels in the area, and as you can see, His Lordship was made ever so welcome and he slept like a log, as did I! I brought his own bed, however my bed was super comfy and cosy. There was a tv, a (clean!) kettle with tea & coffee and large en-suite. The building itself is steeped in history and is architecturally stunning. For the same price you could stay in one of the bland, characterless, pokey guesthouses nearer town.... but why would you? From what I could tell, every room looked different, which was a nice touch. The terrace is a great place to sit and watch the Clyde roll by, and there was ample parking too. The log fire in the bar was both cosy and aesthetically pleasing, and the whole place was super clean. Sadly I was staying due to holding my husbands funeral in Dunoon, but the hotel being bright and cheerful really helped me alot. All the staff were fun and incredibly friendly (it is rare for housekeeping to say good morning these days, but the ladies here were wonderful). Also, a big thumbs-up to Fiona on the bar for making my stay a thoroughly enjoyable one; it really is the staff who make a hotel feel like home. As Arnie would say, Ill be back! Thank you xxx"
