No.26 By The Sea

Absolutely brilliant wee hotel. Loved everything about it. Staff and service were all fabulous. Rooms felt very luxurious and spotlessly clean. Having breakfast made in the open kitchen was very cool and food absolutely delicious. Cannot rate it highly enough. Will 100% be back.

We loved everything about our stay at No 26 by the Sea. The staff couldn't have done more to make my husband and I but especially our dog, Evie, more welcome. We were given a glass on bubbly on arrival (plus water for Evie), asked about our breakfast choice for the following morning as it would be cooked fresh in the open kitchen next to us then shown to our lovely room which looked out over the water. The room was immaculate with special touches throughout including a bed for the dog and a bag of biscuit treats too. The bathroom facilities were ideal with a great shower and 4 bags hanging with extra items we might need like an iron, hairdryer, magnified mirror and alarm clock. We enjoyed sitting in the lounge after eating dinner out in Oban and relaxed by the bay window reading the books about local history and playing cards. There was even a very well stocked honesty bar. In the morning, before breakfast, we were left a little tray outside our room of bottles of orange juice and mini pastries. Breakfast was superb and we were even given a sausage to take back up to Evie in the room.

There was nothing to dislike.

Loved everything. Lounge was lovely, staff were great, room felt luxurious and Loved the open kitchen for breakfast.

Only wish we could have stayed longer!

Great location best staff. Nothings a problem, happy to help you. Great with dogs visiting and fab walks just around the hotel. The rooms are beautiful and I would love to stay again.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this beautiful seaside hotel. Waking up to the sound of the waves and having the sea right on our doorstep made it feel like a true escape. What really made the experience special, though, was the service. Every member of staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely personable—they made us feel more like guests in their home than customers. The little touches didn’t go unnoticed either, especially the warm welcome drink on arrival, which set the tone perfectly for the rest of our stay. The atmosphere was relaxed yet lively, and everything felt thoughtfully done without being over the top. We also loved how dog-friendly the hotel was—it can be hard to find places that truly welcome dogs, but here they made just as much of a fuss of our furry companion as they did of us. All in all, a wonderful stay with stunning views, exceptional service, and those extra thoughtful details that make all the difference. We’ll definitely be back!

What a wonderful hotel! From the moment we arrived we were made so welcome. Our bedroom was beautifully decorated in a unique style and really cozy and comfortable. Every area of the hotel was spotlessly clean and decorated to a really high standard. The position of the hotel on the seafront offered the most amazing views, we didn't have the best weather but if you were lucky enough to get sunshine there is a lovely patio area out the front and the hotel offers an honesty bar for drinks. Each morning we had fresh orange juice and pastries left to our door, a lovely touch! The breakfast is freshly cooked to order by the chef in the open plan kitchen) dining room. I had 3 different breakfasts and everyone was incredible. The location of the hotel is great and is only a short walk along the prom to the town centre, there are a limited number of parking spaces at the hotel alternatively you can park outside on the street ( metre parking). I can't praise the staff enough, they went above and beyond you make our stay special, nothing was too much trouble. In summary this hotel is a gem and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone wanting to take a trip to Oban.

2nd time at No 26 and once again it didn’t disappoint us. Fantastic location, gorgeous room (2),delicious breakfast and fantastic staff. It’s a shame about the weather, but the view from our room was wonderful! Thanks again Carey all your help don’t know what we’d do within you ! . Wonderful xx
