Top Connel Bridge Hotel Reviews

Ronebhal B&B

Ronebhal B&B

10/10 Excellent
"We were met by our host at approximately 8 pm on the first night of our stay. We had provided an approximate time beforehand to help. We were then given the tour, which was extremely helpful. We loved the room - so clean and spacious with en-suite and the sea view was breathtaking. The new bath was very much welcomed, although we just used the superb walk-in shower provided during our stay. There were nice additional touches in the room, e.g. some whiskey to sample, tooth picks, cotton buds, tissues etc. The hamper-style continental breakfast that was delivered to your room every morning was fantastic. More than enough food and snacks for a complete day we thought. There was the Oyster Inn nearby for drinks and food too, which we utilised on some evenings. The trip to Oban itself was only 5 x miles away and we opted for a visit to Sky Falls for some pictures - an hour or so away. All-in-all, this was a fantastic stay and we did what we came to do, which was mainly to taste the wonderful seafood in Oban. We very highly recommend this superb B&B."

"Das Haus ist ein hervorragender Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung der Gegend um Oban. Modern eingerichtet, sehr sauber und gemütlich, ruhig gelegen, bequeme Betten und der hot tubist super zum Relaxen am Abend. Zwei kleine Minuspunkte: Die Küchenausstattung könnte ein bisschen großzügiger bemessen sein. Und das WLan war etwas schwach, sodass Netflix & Co. schwierig waren. Ansonsten: Tiptop, sehr zu empfehlen!"
