Top Gylen Castle Hotel Reviews

The Royal Hotel

8/10 Good

"It is needing upgraded as creaky floors n some of the carpets need replacing also found the double bed a bit small"

Knipoch House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place for a couple of nights away"

The ultimate secluded Holiday Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed at this property again this summer (also summer 2025). It's such a gem! Nice house, lovely decorated! We caught mackerel from the sea and put them on the barbie straight away. Next to the house is a waterfall, in which the kids built dams for hours. And from the doorstep multiple beautiful walks can be made. To only reason not to recommend this place is because we want to keep this hidden gem a secret so we can book again."

The Great Western Hotel

8/10 Good

"The photos did not match the room we got! The staff were great. The location was perfect. The room… a bit scary; in desperate need of a renovation. Maybe some rooms look like the advertising but our certainly did NOT!"

We were close to Oban which has all the local shops, cafe's restaurants and other attractions that you'd expect. The local scenic walks and sailings, make it an ideal base for exploring the area.The cottage was equipped with modern appliances and a wood-burning stove for those chilly evenings. The Wi-Fi was reliable, and the private garden with beautiful views was a lovely bonus - ideal for enjoying a coffee or evening drink. It truly had everything you could need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.We canâ€™t recommend this cottage enough! Whether you're looking for a peaceful getaway or a base for exploring the area, this property offers the perfect combination of comfort, style, and convenience. We left feeling completely refreshed and will definitely be returning in the future! A perfect home away from home."
