“King's Knoll Hotel strikes me as a smart choice in Oban. The recent redecoration gives it a boutique feel, and its location allows for easy access to the ferry terminal and town, while still providing superb views over the bay from many rooms and the bar. I particularly like that they have spacious rooms with sitting areas and have parking on site.”
