Lovely room, clean and well stocked with tea/coffee facilities and fresh milk. Thomas was delightful and served a delicious hot breakfast in the morning. Just wished we had asked for some toast too.

Failte sits on the road at the top of a steep hill, so be prepared for a short climb but worth it.

Would Recommend: Yes

1st August 2024:

For us, Failte is the perfect place to stay. Thomas made us welcome (again!). The house is almost magical displaying the most striking artwork by family members. I was riveted! Our room was lovely, had everything we needed and a big choice of reading material just outside the door! A great choice of fresh fruit, cereals, continental breakfast plus the full Scottish beautifully presented. A mini fridge with fresh milk. All the little things. Back soon!

Parking downtown requires patience - a bit of hanging about watching for others leaving. At £1 an hour, we thought it must contribute to the town's budget, so well worth it. Quick lunches available along the main streets and the pier area. Lots of shops and crafts. Boat trips are popular. We take the coastal road down to Kilmartin Museum including a walk out to Dunadd sustained by a cracking lunch at the Museum cafe! Check the times for these ..... Oh! and much, much more!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your lovely review! We're delighted that Failte feels like the perfect place for you. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the unique artwork and the cozy amenities in your room.

We had the most incredible stay at Failte B&B - we would return in a heartbeat! The rooms were beautiful, incredibly comfortable, thoughtfully furnished, spotlessly clean, and immediately felt like being at home. Breakfast was terrific, and Thomas was always incredibly welcoming and full of fantastic local tips!

Thomas’s tip to take the guided tour at Dunollie Castle was a great one - the guided tour was one of the highlights of our visit to Oban! The castle and family had fascinating history and passionate staff (plus a lovely cafe on-site for lunch).

A great location above the harbor with a short walk to McCaig’s tower and all the attractions of the waterfront. It is uphill from the harbor, so be prepared for a steep, but doable climb. Failte is tidy, quiet & relaxing with a certain quaint charm. We were met with very friendly service, great breakfasts and all the amenities one might need. We would highly recommend a stay if you are in the area.

We had wonderful meals at Piazza on the pier and Cuan Mor, and enjoyed shopping and a tour of the Oban Distillery. One highlight was our 2 hour trip with Oban Sea Tours, to see local sea life and castles from the water, but trips to the many islands nearby are also available from the local ferry terminal.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you found Failte to be a charming and relaxing spot with friendly service and great breakfasts. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back in the future!"

We had a very nice dinner at the Waterfront Fishouse.

My room was quite cozy with a lovely wee bed in which I slept quite well. The breakfast was delightful and hosts most pleasant.

Great bookstore in town and the fancy restaurant EE-USK, while really, really, good was very expensive. But I did have a lovely harbor view, so you can consider that. Food was excellent. I found Jacob's Ladder, while being more extreme, an easier walk to and from town than the road. Highly recommend David's taxi.44 7578 704700

Great location within walking distance to the town without all the noise and congestion. Hosts are wonderfully helpful and kind. Breakfasts are delicious and filling.

If you’re taking a ferry to the islands, make sure to book in advance.

This was a lovely and quaint stay in Oban, a perfect seaside retreat. The home was immaculate, and breakfast delicious. You can tell they take great pride in their space, it was decorated beautifully and we had everything we needed for our brief stay. Would recommend and stay many times over - they even had a floor on the main room if stairs were an issue.

The distillery tour is a must do, as well as walks around the seafront.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for your incredible review and for staying with us. We gladly would welcome you again to Failte.

I have enjoyed first class hospitality at Failte for many years now. Thomas and Isabel provide an impeccably thoughtful and welcoming environment. Breakfast options cater for every imaginable taste. Highly recommended.

The nearby islands of the Inner Hebrides are delightful. Kerrera, Lismore, and West Mull are all within a ferry trip of under an hour duration.

The place is cozy and lovely and the service was excellent. I loved the outside view from my room window.

Please make sure you visit all parts of Oban before you leave the town and why not taking an hour to walk through all the steep roads and see the view of the town from different angles? ;-)

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for staying with us and for your marvelous review.

The host was a very amiable charming man who was friendly and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. I would definately recommend this B&B to anyone wishing to stay in Oban.

The View restaurant and Bar in Oban has a lovely Restaurant and bar with as the name suggests a Beautiful view across the harbour through big glass windows on an upstairs balcony. The food was Delicious

We arrived on our bikes and had a very warm welcome from Thomas. He showed us to the lockable bike shed and then to our room. He then brought us tea and shortbread, a really lovely gesture after a king day cycling. The room and bathroom were very comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was superb, a good choice of cereals, homemade yogurt (delicious), very nice bread and a freshly prepared cooked breakfast. Scrambled eggs and smoked salmon set us on our way for another day in the saddle. Thank you for a lovely stay. The B&B is at the top of Oban so that was the only train I marked it down one point because I was done with hills on the bike but I would definitely recommend to anyone and would stay there again if I was in Oban. Thank you

McCaibs tower is not far from the B&B and definitely worth a visit with amazing views over Oban.. We are at Piazza on the waterfront, where we had a delicious meal..

As I've said in person to the proprietors, this may be the most lovely, efficient, and pleasant Bed and Breakfast I've ever stayed in. I especially loved the ambiance created by the art all over the hotel and also the caring sensitivity of Thomas and Isabel.

Made welcome, helped immediately when toilet wouldn’t stop flushing, provided with very good packed breakfast when had to leave early.

It was quite a long pull up on foot with luggage from the station - a bit hard at the end of a long day’s travelling. But very easy going down next morning!

From the moment I booked I had excellent customer services felt welcome before I arrived. When I arrived received such a warm welcome got shown to my beautiful room, although I had a welcome tray in room was asked if I wanted a pot of tea with shortbread that came to the room that was such a lovely touch. The room itself was clean & lovely it had a window seat which I loved. The following morning the breakfast selection & quality of food was amazing I would say the best I have seen for a guest house. It did feel like a home from home and that’s what you want it to feel like. Thank you so much for delivering this, you really do it with such kindness will definitely be returning on my next visit to Oban. Thank you 😊

Failte is a hidden gem in Oban! And Thomas is a very gracious host. Upon arrival, he provided tea and shortbreads, and even brought fresh milk to our room for our in-room coffee and tea. The bed and the pillows were very nice and the bathroom facilities were clean and bright. Failte is located up a long hill, but within easy walking distance to all the attractions that Oban has to offer. We certainly recommend a stay at Failte.

A minor quibble: If you’re coming from the USA, be sure to bring an adapter with multiple outlets, as this historic property has only one or two electrical outlets in each room for phone charging, etc. (We’ve found this to be true for many historic B&Bs in the UK.)

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you for staying with us and for your splendid review.

27th September 2022:

Thomas is a gem - nothing was too much trouble and the room was beautifully appointed.

On the side of the hill above the waterfront, so much quieter and a beautiful view.

Very friendly and welcoming host. Exceptional breakfast-quality and presentation. Lovely and fairly spacious sleeping quarters.

Be prepared for a walk uphill from town😊
