Great location in Oban, comfortable, easy access and good communication with management.

Comfortable and convenient apartment within the centre of Oban. Communication throughout the process was excellent. Would certainly recommend this accommodation for a visit to Oban. Great access from the port to the Scottish isles and Highlands.

Unbelievable location! Right in the center of everything. Parking is difficult, but taking the train from Glasgow would eliminate that problem. Nice space. Large, fully furnished, niceties like coffee and tea for morning. Waking up to the view of the harbour was awesome.

This was my second stay at this property, based on my outstanding experience with the original booking. This stay offered the exact same very enjoyable experience. This apartment is located in the heart of Oban along the waterfront and offers truly outstanding views. The apartment is spacious, well decorated and offers all the necessary amenities. Access procedures were crystal clear and there were no issues requiring contact with the host during my stay. The apartment was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The windows opened very easily for a great waterfront breeze, given I visited in the peak of summer. The kitchen also offered everything required. I would plan to stay here again without hesitation in any future visits to this beautiful Scottish town. Thanks for another unforgettable stay in Oban.

Comfortable stay in a fabulous location

We had a great stay here - the view from the bay windows is amazing for watching the world go by. There was a lot of space and well laid out. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked, and having access to laundry was great. Instructions for access were very clear. Parking was easy - the Tweedale lot is around the corner and we could keep the car there overnight and during the day when we went on a boat tour. If you pay with an app, you can easily extend your time remotely if you need to. The information book and pamphlets were helpful - based on that, we decided to go to the Isle of Kerrera for a day, and it was such a good day out. Location is great - easy walking distance to everything, including the ferry to Mull. There was a little noise from the street but not too bad and quieted down after 11.

A Gem in Oban

Imperial Apartment is a lovely self-catering apartment right in the centre of Oban. It is located on George Street, only a short walk from the harbour, ferry terminal, shops, cafés and restaurants, making it a great place to stay for anyone wanting to explore the town and the surrounding islands. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, with one large double bedroom, a modern bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen and a cosy living room. It also has free Wi-Fi and offers fantastic views over Oban Bay. The apartment is ideal for couples. One of the biggest advantages of staying here is the location. Guests can easily walk to popular attractions, catch ferries to nearby islands such as Mull and Kerrera, or enjoy the many local seafood restaurants and cafés. Everything you need is close by, so there is very little need to use a car once you arrive. Previous guests have left very positive reviews, often commenting on how clean, spacious and well-equipped the apartment is. Many people also mention the stunning sea views and say the apartment is an excellent base for exploring Oban and the west coast of Scotland. There are only a few minor drawbacks. The apartment is on the second floor and can only be reached by stairs, which may not suit everyone. Parking in the town centre can also be busy during peak tourist season. Overall, Imperial Apartment is an excellent place to stay. It combines comfort, convenience and beautiful views in one of the best locations in Oban. It is particularly suitable for couples, weekend visitors and anyone planning to explore the Highlands and the Scottish islands.

Wonderful location and very comfortable stay

We had a wonderful stay in Oban at this property. Beautifully furnished and absolutely amazing views. It could be a little noisy outside of an evening but it always settled down. We were in walking distance of everything. And the restaurant downstairs was fabulous.

Outstanding waterfront location

An apartment in an outstanding Oban waterfront location with wonderful views. Comfortably furnished but be aware it is up two flights of stairs. It did have a sightly overwhelming cupboard full of cleaning materials, and the instructions and various booklets and brochures were a little over the top and could do with editing. Overall a positive experience because of the location.
