This is my second stay at this hotel and once again it didn't disappoint, Brian and his staff run the hotel faultlessly, it is spotlessly clean, the staff are hardworking and extremely courteous and friendly, the food is good and plentiful. The only complaint and the reason I didn't give it 5 stars this year was the journey there and... More

We booked a 5 day holiday with Highland Heritage commencing 5th April and travelled up by coach from the Derby pick up point. Apart from the long journey up to Oban (addressed later) we enjoyed every minute and think it is very good value for money. We paid a supplement for a large sea facing room and it was worth... More

Staying at the Alexandra was part of a HIGHLANDS HERITAGE TOUR. It was a Tour/Short Holiday we will never forget for its excellence, attention to comfort and detail and all for us, the consumer. Nothing was too much trouble, all staff from the top to the bottom were caring and so friendly. The hotel, the sea-view room we had, were... More

I think it's fair and honest to give a true review. We returned last Saturday after a 5 day break, staying 4 nights at the Alexandra. To be honest, value for money, it has to be 100%. We were originally booked to travel on the 3rd March, but owing to not enough bookings, the trip was cancelled, however they booked... More

We had a great time in Oban staying at this hotel for the first time, for a 5 day Turkey and Tinsel break. The hotel is warm and welcoming and the staff all very pleasant and polite. Our room wasn't huge but it was nice and comfortable and we couldn't really fault the room at all. It was an awfully... More
