Muthu Oban Regent Hotel- Refurbished

The hotel is currently being refurbished, I believe its the first and second floors that are available. The lift is out of use just now but staff will happily help with luggage if required. An amazing warm welcome from reception, nothing is too much trouble here. All the staff are lovely and will always say hello and go out of their way to help. The staff are very friendly and always smiling. Our room was on the first floor (118) with a sea view. The room was lovely and clean, the best pillows and quilt I have ever slept with. Tea, coffee, hot chocolate station in the room. Along with a couple of bottles of water. Ample space for everything with a large tv. Bathroom is beautiful the water pressure is amazing, I had a shower and had to turn the water right down or I was going to get sprayed out of the window lol. Lovely hot water. We had dinner in the restaurant and the chef came put to speak to us, we asked what the soup was and he said he was making chicken soup but could do any we wanted. We said chicken was fine. The soup was one of the best I have ever tasted and I would happily sit and eat that again and again. My husband is a selective (fussy) eater and he loved it also!. Overall everything is fantastic, there is a bar downstairs serving all types of drinks with some chilled out piano music playing. Small snacks and drinks are available to buy at a very reasonable price. Parking is pretty much non existent at the hotel due to the works being done, however there is on street parking on the opposite road. Parking is paid from 9-6. It can work out quite expensive, however you can park at the train station for £3 a day and overnight. Its a short walk to the hotel. Fiona & pj

We stayed in Muthu Alexandra Oban hotel since its sister hotel Muthu Oban was being renovated. The hotel was great. Would stay again

I am dissapointed.Hotel was dirty with rude manager.Meals was ok.But can not understand that few years albo service in restaurant was super fast.Now slow.5 years ago spanish/ukrainian waitress miss Ibanez was doing Great dessert after supper.Amazing ice creams under table.Now nobody

Receptionist informative and very pleasant. Room comfortable and clean. Breakfast, plenty of choice but a bit disappointing. Alot of the cooked food was, at most, tepid if not cold. My bacon was tough from being left in heat too long. Not a good way to start my day.

This hotel is now called the Muthu Oban Hotel . We had a room on the second floor with a view of the harbour which was excellent. The room was spotlessly clean with first class bathroom facilities. Where this hotel fell down was the lack of a working elevator for the duration of our stay from the Friday to the following Monday. How can an hotel hope to operate and attract future guests when their elevator does not work. We were given no apology for this breakdown despite my friend being severely disabled and struggled greatly to go up and down the two flight of stairs. In fact several other guests had rooms on higher levels , most of them elderly, how they coped with this, I have no idea. So no pass marks to the Muthu Oban Hotel for this sad failure.i

This place is an absolute dump. The paint is falling off the walls. There was an empty vodka bottle sitting on a radiator. Bin bags piled left By the cleaner in the hallway. It’s vile and old and smells awful like an old building that’s been empty for years and years. We have just gotten here for two nights and I dont even want to stay but no chance of getting money back. None of the photos are even similar to the place. I could cry as it’s so so bad! I’m so upset!

Hotel is dated. Not clean. Needs refurbished. The shower is like a water canon. Not for the faint hearted. The wall was half papered. We got an 11 am check out. House keeping was chapping at 9am, hoovering outside the room early. Just awful The lady on reception was nice and helpful I would never return and never recommend it

The hotel has seen better days and needs major investment to restore it to its former glory The Art Deco exterior and interior require major work. Some of the interior paintwork had been touched up however this had been done very badly and flooring curtains carpets and hand rails were smeared with white gloss paint all adding to the general feeling of being run down and uncared for! The lift was broken this wasn’t helpful as I have a heart condition and I struggled with the stairs . Our allocated room had seen better days and the noise from the extraction unit from a nearby restaurant was deafening but to be fair the receptionist we were promptly offered a choice of 2 alternative rooms . We opted for a room with a view to the harbour but this necessitated me struggling with another 2 flights of stairs !! The beds were comfortable and the linen and towels were clean. The shower worked well . The bathroom was clean and had been painted however the general appearance was spoiled again by smears of gloss paint on the flooring which any reputable painter and decorator would have removed . Breakfast was good and plentiful . Staff were friendly and helpful I think possibly to cover their embarrassment at the state of things . What a shame for this grand old building and the staff who work there ! Not to mention the guests ! In a strange way we are drawn to go back and see how things have worked out!

Hotel was tired looking and seems to be going through a renovation. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Bathroom was excellent with a good powerful shower... once I managed to get it working!!! Breakfast was ok. Not a fan off deep fried sausages thiugh.
