Sufficiently comfortable
Last minute booking, so not cheap (£182 for a night) but beds more comfortable and shower more powerful than a Premiere Inn at least. Had to download Netflix app as none were set up beyond terrestrial TV and pool not available due to refurbishment, so not fully sure why it cost that much. Parking was terrible (i.e. there was no free parking available - paid to park across the street). Great views of Oban harbour however. Did the job.

Very conveniently sited hotel. Nice, friendly staff. The shower had the smallest cubicle I've ever seen! TV signal was very bad, not a big problem for us as we didn't watch much but for those who do, would be very frustrating. Asked for a glass of white wine in the bar but was told they only had red. We just went out to another bar. Overall, nice stay

"Refurbished"
No heat controls in the room. Windows painted shut during their partial (refurbishment). Room temperature continually increase through the night to match the outrageous heat in the public space. Shower flooded the bathroom as door was ill fitting. Restaurant was overpriced and food was average, what they served did not match the details on the menu. Staff taking personal phone calls while I ate.

This newly renovated Muthu hotel, The Regent, will please those who like to be within walking distance of the center. The rooms in the historic section are comfortably spacious with high ceilings and large windows. The new interior has mostly maintained historic elements with whimsical decor elements here and there.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were really disappointed with our stay. The lift was not in working condition, which should have been mentioned on the site when booking. Our room was tiny and the bed blocked the door to the bathroom, had we been any bigger there is no way we’d squeeze in. Staying on the 4th floor in May, for some odd reason the heat was still on in the hallways making the rooms very warm with no way to cool it off. There is also no parking on site and staff were very unclear about where to Park and actually advised us to park in a no overnight parking area. Overall this was definitely not worth the amount paid and I would not stay at this hotel chain again.
