    The whisky bar's extensive selection is unparalleled, and John's knowledge made our visit memorable. The cozy ambiance with a fire in the corner created an inviting atmosphere after a long day of exploring Oban.

    A Perfect Blend of Comfort and Charm

    Our stay was absolutely delightful! We enjoyed whiskey tastings in a cozy atmosphere, and the complimentary breakfast bags each morning were a fantastic touch. Don't miss the outdoor beer garden—perfect for sunny afternoons. John and Helen are wonderfully attentive hosts, making you feel right at home.

    had such a great stay, room was super clean n comfy with a good bed. loved the breakfast pack, nice touch! the whisky bar downstairs was cozy and we had fish n chips delivered right to our table which was amazin. also, it’s really close to the city center so we could walk to all the restaurants n bars easily.

    was a bit noisy when other guests came back late at night. also, the room was kinda small for the price.

    shower height issue

    The room was compact but comfy, which was fine for a couple of nights. The shower was good but might be a challenge for taller folks. Clean and warm, with nice bedding. We had a bit of a squish with luggage, but it was still cozy. Totally loved the breakfast bag they left outside our room. Staff were super friendly and helpful too!

    what an amazin stay at the whisky vaults hotel! the staff was super friendly and knowledgable about whisky, which made the bar experience unforgettable. the room was cozy and clean, bigger than i expected for a boutique place. got a delicious "to go" breakfast bag for our early ferry, which was really thoughtful. the vibe of the bar was chill, and they have a great selection of drinks!

    Exceptional Whisky Selection and Cozy Atmosphere

    Our stay was fantastic. the staff's knowledge of whisky made the bar experience unique and memorable. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, with gorgeous linens and plush towels. I enjoyed the thoughtful breakfast bag with fresh fruit and yogurt for our early ferry departure. One aspect that could improve is the limited options for breakfast in the bar.

    room size
    bathroom space
    stairs access

    What a delightful spot! The Whisky Vaults felt very much like home. The staff, especially John, provided exceptional hospitality. He knew everything about whisky and shared some great recommendations. The selection at the bar blew my mind—350 single malts to choose from! I stayed in a Deluxe Double Room. While the room was cozy and clean, it felt a bit cramped, and the bathroom was smaller than expected. Climbing stairs to the rooms could be a hassle after a long day. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Oban and very close to the harbor. I appreciated the thoughtful breakfast pack for an early departure. a great stay, though a bit more space in the rooms would be nice.

    whisky selection
    great location
    friendly staff
    small room size

    Had an awesome stay with friends! We tried the Oban Distillery tour and loved the tasty takeaway options nearby—definitely recommend the fish & chips. A nice touch was the breakfast bag left outside our room. Great location made exploring easy. The whisky selection at the bar is insane—over 250 options!

    One downside was the small room size. we had to stash our luggage under the bed, which was a bit annoying. parking was inconvenient since it wasn't included.

    limited hours
    small room
    breakfast absence

    The room was simple and exceptionally clean, equipped with everything needed for a pleasant stay. A standout feature was the goodie bag left at 7:30, which provided a delightful breakfast alternative. The location was ideal, just a minute's walk from shops and restaurants. the reception's limited hours could be inconvenient for late arrivals, and the room was quite small, which may not suit everyone.
