Warm welcome, wonderful stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glenview and hope to return. Our hostess was friendly, helpful and welcoming. Our room was comfortable and spotless. Our freshly cooked breakfasts were delicious. We enjoyed the cosy TV lounge. Everyone was very kind and friendly to our wee dog Heather.

Glenview
I was initially a bit worried about noise from the very busy road outside, but the double glazing was excellent and I never heard any traffic at all. My single room was clean, comfortable, well equipped and had an excellent shower in the ensuite. My only slight niggle was the lack of BBC1 and BBC2 on the TV (despite me reinstalling the channels). However, what makes this B&B stand out is Morven, the landlady. She couldn't do enough for me when my car broke down and is an absolute star. She is friendly and welcoming but not intrusive. I will be back!

Morven the hostess was so welcoming and very accommodating.The room was clean warm and very spacious and the bed was comfortable. It was a shared shower and toilet but this was not a problem. I would stay here again and i would highly recommend it to my friends and family.

The staff were the best anyone could ever have. Check in time was 3:00 PM until 9:00 PM and staff stayed up until we arrived at 10:00 PM due to a late train. Breakfast was the best I have ever had at a guesthouse, and I was able to leave my luggage their until my departure to my next destination later that evening. This guesthouse deserves a 5 star rating and above.

Very comfortable stay. Older building - always curious about the history of these buildings, a bit worn in spots, but clean and functional where it “matters”.

We enjoyed our short stay at glenview guest House, we had an early ferry to tiree so was perfect for a night before early rise. We had to leave before breakfast so owner made a packed lunch for the ferry which was excellent. Perfect location for ferry in morning and went out for a meal just a short walk away in the evening. Thankyou again and we will be back if in area

Very basic accommodations. Room was cold. Proprietor did not respond to repeated efforts to solve the problem. On the plus side: parking was provided. Guest house was a 15-minute walk to downtown Oban.

Highly Recommend this place!
The host couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. This is an excellent location for anyone visiting Oban or needing a place to stay before or after a ferry crossing. Super close to the supermarkets and ferry terminal. The room was very clean, modern bathroom and was peaceful.

Host was lovely and breakfast service prompt. Decor was very dated however and my bed was lumpy and uncomfortable so didn’t sleep too well. There was a shortage of electrical sockets and none near the mirror which made hair drying very difficult. The mirror was hung so low it was only suitable for children or very small adults.

Okay for a couple nights
Got checked in a little earlier than 4 pm which was good. Room very small but okay. Furnishings bit dated but clean enough. Odd configuration with sink in bedroom then toilet/shower in very small “cupboard”. Bed not very comfy and our room was right beside internal door so quite noisy. We were informed on arrival there would be no cooked breakfast the next morning as she had to go out, however she was there and made coffee/tea and toast so unsure why it wasn’t possible to make a breakfast, however adequate selection of cereal, fruit and yogurt. No hairdryer in room but I got one when requested. I was under impression room had been prepaid but she said that wasn’t the case so I have to check with bank. Location okay but no footpath on that side so bit dodgy crossing over at busy periods. 10 minute walk into town. Probably wouldn’t stay here again as stayed in nicer b&bs in Oban previously.

Perfect place.
Morven, the owner was so sweet. We loved the place, room, facilities, quiet in the night, cooked breakfast. She also let us to leave our cat parked at her parking lot, meanwhile we already checked out and went for whole day trip to Isles. Great location, quiet. Definitely would recommend and thank you again ❤️
