Review of Oban Inn
1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 6 Jul 2023
Endlessly disappointed in this place. Check In Always seems to involve an argument . Rooms are dated and are definitely NOT 5 star !
Food across the street at golf course far better and much cheaper ! Massage was average .
Having stayed at real 5 star hotels all over the world this place is unimpressive.
Won’t ever go again .

Unfortunately, this hotel has really gone down hill. It’s been 5 years since I’ve been there, but in that time - many things have fallen. They still advertise on the site for the infinity pool and hot springs - spoiler alert- it hasn’t been in service since COVID, and the pool needs a major clean. We booked spa services for day of arrival and were told we would be able to get into our room before hand- didn’t happen. So, we changed into our bathing suits to go to the hot springs- didn’t happen. So, we went to the spa to hang out there. It’s a room, with couches and four doors for services. The steam room is used as storage for laundry. The services themselves were amazing. We did get into our room after our services, and it was shocking how dirty the windows were, the blinds were ripped and we could hear absolutely everything in the room above us. We called to make resos for dinner and were told we could only go at 6pm because they were busy and didn’t have enough staff in the kitchen. When we arrived there were only 4 tables seated. And, then we were told there were no more mussels avail. What we did eat, was very good. At 7:30am the next day we went downstairs for coffee, and nothing was prepared - so we walked to Starbucks. They did have coffee for us when we got back. It just appears that there seems to be a lack of care for the hotel. Whoever the gardener is should be hired to get the inside of the hotel up to the standard of the flowers. So sad to see a hotel I used to love so much be neglected.

Great location to Queen St, Our room with a king size bed was roomy and comfortable. The breakfasts were very welcoming and delicious. The one dinner we had the stuffed mushroom caps, crab cakes and duck confit and all were very delicious! We will highly recommend this spot for overnight and meals. We can hardly wait to return!

Room tip: March is a low tourist season so very easy to get around, visit wineries and dine.

This is the best hotel in NOTL. It has a wonderful restaurant, beautiful gardens, very short walk to Queen Street and across the street from the oldest golf course in North America. The rooms are well kept, spa is lovely, and the service is amazing. Some rooms have balconies. There is a little pool and gazebo out back in a little oasis. A perfect couples getaway retreat. We moved to town last Summer, and miss staying here so we go back to use the spa and restaurant often. 5 star all the way!

My wife and I went here for our 45 th wedding anniversary for two nights. We’ve been here before for dining. We chose the room on the second floor with the sun porch. We greatly enjoyed the sun porch, the bed was comfortable, and the room was roomy.
My wife went to the spa, she enjoyed it immensely. We were going have our anniversary dinner there but the previous evenings dinner there was average. The Lobster in the lobster spaghetti was old and the sauce was a basic recipe, not what I was hoping for. My wife and I come from a family of chefs so we may be expecting too much.
We decided to go to the Hob Nob restaurant the next evening. The meals there are exceptional. It’s more expensive, the rack of lamb is $58.00 compared to the Oban’s $47.00 so it makes sense. Service at Oban breakfast is hit and miss on the weekend, they were understaffed. My rating is average for the dining, the room was very good, and the spa is excellent.
