Top Arctic Penguin Hotel Reviews

The Royal Hotel

6/10 Okay

"We stayed here for two nights in a Classic Twin Room in April 2026. The biggest positives were the excellent location and the staff, particularly reception and housekeeping, who were genuinely lovely and very helpful throughout our stay. However, the hotel itself feels very tired and dated, with a sense of faded grandeur. Carpets throughout the corridors, public areas, and staircases were heavily worn in places. A major concern was the spiral-style staircase. The steps are extremely narrow on one side, yet the bannister is positioned on that narrowest side rather than the wider side where support is most needed. This made the stairs feel quite dangerous, especially when carrying luggage. We also heard several other guests complaining about this. The lift was also extremely small and very slow for such a large hotel. The bathrooms were clean and fairly modern, although basic and not especially well finished. Bedrooms were clean but dated, and the TV was tiny by modern standards. Drinks in the lounge/bar area were also surprisingly expensive. One particularly worrying incident involved a friend staying in another room becoming trapped for a long while inside the bathroom after the door handle completely fell off late at night. As he has epilepsy, this was especially frightening and highlighted concerns around maintenance and safety. Overall, the hotel has great staff and a fantastic central location, but it now feels in real need of refurbishment and improved maintenance."

Royal Marine Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a very pleasant overnight stay. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. Plenty of hot water and good shower pressure. This is an old building so it can't be compared with a modern structure, but it has plenty of charm. Very helpful staff. Didn't have breakfast, so can't comment. Would definitely stay again."

Brander Lodge Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Hotel in terrible state of disrepair. manhole cover covering something in the floor on the main upstairs corridor. Ceiling tiles missing from the roof in the stair well with insulation hanging down over the stairs. Gaps in the bottom of the fire exit door because the bottom of the door is rotten - god knows what can crawl through from outside. Room I stayed in was very dated. only 5 or 6 TV channels working. Breakfast area and bar area are nice. Breakfast itself was nice but wouldn't stay there again unless the hotel itself undergoes significant renovation"

Melfort House

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our two nights stay at Melfort House. It was peaceful idyll that restored us somewhat as we were nearing the end of our road trip through Scotland. Matthew is a wonderful host, and we felt welcome in his home. The breakfast offerings were top notch, and our room and bed were so comfortable. The location was perfect for a day trip to nearby Oban, which should not be missed, particularly for the seafood and Oban Distillery tour. Thank you Matthew for the opportunity to stay; we will long remember it."

The Tarbet Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location was excellent. The staff were very polite and helpful. Breakfast was good enough. The hotel was clean. It needs updating. Our two nights stay was satisfactory. We had a hot water problem in the shower but it was attended and fixed. Though water in the shower was not hot enough not enough force. No major issue. Thanks"
