Due to covid, our stay was different, but despite this had a lovely time. Clean , friendly staff, brilliant view over the bay, great location. Only problem was the 90 stairs to reach our room. I have arthritis so was a struggle. Make sure you check this before booking.

A hotel that in no way meets the standards expected by the client. When not all 20 hours after booking I wanted to cancel the services of the Palace Hotel, the hotel took the money from my account. Tragic service, lack of respect for the customer. I would not recommend this strange hotel to anyone, in beautiful Oban.

The loo seat was broken. Was unable to get hot water in shower. As for trying to check-in.....earlier older lady let me leave my bags and to come back at 3pm. This I did and after 5 or 6 minutes shouting and bell ringing, a foreign lady with almost no English appeared and said "no manager". Not worth £80 that's for sure.

So, I understand, you took money from my account even though you don't meet the conditions I expected. I think you are cheaters. OK, I will share my opinion on your website and customer service on every possible website on the Internet. This is your choice.
Yours sincerely, Peter Senakiewicz.
You can improve services when you have respect for the customer. At the same time, your hotel and its staff do not meet any standards.

Lovely family run hotel. Old and new. Very helpful staff and a great breakfast. Lots of stair so not great for not very mobile guests but staff will try and get you a room on a lower floor if possible. Gorgeous views to wake up to in the morning.

AVOID. Although the Palace Hotel has an EXPLICITLY STATED POLICY (see their website) of issuing full refunds for cancellations, they refused to do so for me. I made a reservation for 2 rooms on 3-23-13 (for June 2013)--they charged my credit card the full amount immediately. When I cancelled later that day, they credited me only a fraction of the full charge. They ignored my 7 emails, and are now refusing to work with VISA, with whom I have initiated a formal case. No explanation has been given.
