This is a very nice property outside of Oban. Knipoch House Hotel is situated in a quiet location and offers very good food on-site. We were only there for a short time, on our way to Glasgow, but it was a very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The property was amazing and our room was lovely. They thought of everything when the property was remodeled. The lighting was great and the layout was fantastic. I appreciated the placement of electrical outlets and mirrors to allow us “ladies” to get ready for the day. The staff were very friendly, kind and accommodating. We enjoyed dinner and drinks in the cozy bar and then off to bed to enjoy the best night of sleep I’ve had since we arrived in Scotland 12 days ago. Thank you!

Lovely boutique hotel just out of the town with a nice view. A ideal place to be for quiet but within driving distance of Oban. Although our room was lovely and we had a good view of the loch, we could also see the bins right below our room, this could be avoided by just covering the bin area.

Liked: Amenities
This is a well-appointed comfortable hotel in a beautiful part of Scotland. The staff are exceptional and the food excellent. It is let down a bit by a congested and rather cramped dining area spread over three rooms. At breakfast, with part of one room taken up by the buffet, it becomes reminiscent of a budget hotel as guests jostle each other and the staff. The staff do their best to compensate but it really needs more than that - a complete redesign - to overcome this one negative aspect of a stay. Finally, in a hotel in this price range, I would expect a deluxe room to have a fridge and a safe. It had neither.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff on arrival were amazing. There was no space in the car park and one of staff moved their vehicle so we had a place to park. The check in process was seamless and all staff were ready to help us if needed. The room was immaculate and had everything we needed. Breakfast the following morning was delicious and served by enthusiastic staff. Checking out, we were very disappointed that we did not have more nights here as we felt it was one of the highlights of the road trip around the Highlands. Definately one place to return to and recommend to friends.

Great location. Lovely rooms.

Beautiful location, great for exploring the Argyll coast and Oban. Rooms, reception and lounge all very nice and redecorated in past year or so. Dining room a bit tired and gloomy. The food we had was decent. Not great. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
