Regent Hotel

Norway’s fjords, Brazil’s beaches and Spain’s costas are all OK.

It’s just that for us, Scotland’s West Coast is better.

Rugged mountains tumbling down to sea lochs; the sun setting over the islands plus enough castles, cairns and legends to fill several Sunday night BBC series – what could be better?

Grab some West Coast magic with today’s Big Deal on a break at the Regent Hotel in Oban.

Esplanade location

The Regent Hotel is an eye-catching building with an enviable location on the town’s esplanade.

Boasting dramatic views across the sea to the Isle of Mull, the hotel is a mixture of classic Victorian and Art Deco architecture.

It is an ideal base for exploring the West Coast of Scotland.

Wine in room

This offer has two options, both available seven days a week.

Option one is for an overnight stay for two in a twin or double room. As well as a full Scottish breakfast in the morning, the offer includes a bottle of house wine in your room on arrival – the perfect way to relax into your getaway.

Option two is for a two night stay for two in a twin or double room. This option includes a full Scottish breakfast in the morning and dinner in the Marine Restaurant on the first night.

Sea views

The Regent Hotel has over 80 rooms, many of which have fantastic views across Oban Bay to the Western Isles.

Hotel facilities include 24 hour room service, satellite TV, a hot drinks tray and WiFi.

Eat & drink

As well as the Marine Restaurant with its magnificent sea views, the hotel also serves bar food in the Marine Lounge while the Whisky Cellar Bar is popular for a pint and watching the footie.

See & do

Known as the Gateway to the Isles, Oban is a busy spot for day trips to the islands. We can also recommend the tours at Oban Distillery and, for adventurous types, the Seafari expeditions which go wildlife spotting on rigid inflatable boats.

Happy guests

The Regent Hotel has its fair share of admirers. A recurring point is the warmth of the staff. This is what a recent guest had to say on TripAdvisor:

‘Really enjoy going back to The Regent, had been a few years. Staff always attentive and pleasant… bed and breakfast is great, bed comfy and full English, yum. We had room facing over the harbour, a beautiful view especially as the sun sets.’

‘You could not ask for a better location. The hotel itself is a bit dated but it more than makes up for this with the fantastic view across the Firth of Lorne as well as the excellent meals and friendly staff.’

‘Good value for money. I have stayed at this hotel on several occasions… It’s true that it could do with a bit of money being spent on it, but overall it’s a great holiday experience – lovely breakfasts… good value lunches and lovely wee bar where you can sit back with an Oban whisky looking towards a sunset over the bay. If you are staying here, don’t expect The Ritz, but what you’ll get is a good, old-fashioned hotel experience, with a lot of character. Looking forward to our next visit!’

Just over a two hour drive from Glasgow, The Regent Hotel is very convenient for an autumnal short break.

Snap up this Big Deal and enjoy some West Coast magic.

With vouchers valid until the 22nd of December, this offer could also be used for a refreshing pre-Christmas break.

A couple of days taking it easy in Oban is a tempting way to escape the hurly burly of the run-up to Christmas.
