Our stay was wonderful! From our arrival and being greeted by Michael, the hotel manager, personally shown to our room and provided with an overview of it's amenities, through our time in lounge / dining room to the end of our two-night stay, we could not have asked for a better combination - comfort, peace and tranquility, yet just a short (about 8 min) drive to Oban for shopping, restaurants and amenities. Celebrating our 20th anniversary, Knipoch House had a calming effect on both of us, especially when we relaxed in our jr. suite with a cocktail overlooking a great view of the mountains and Loch Feochan. This hotel allowed us to combine both relaxation surrounded by nature, with touring and shopping in Oban, a port village with plenty of charm and character, including convenient ferry access to Isle of Mull. Overall, the Knipoch House Hotel is 5 star (by North American standards); our jr. suite was exceptionally appointed following renovations and had above average amenities, including floor heating. hands-free lighting control, new and elegant bathroom fixtures and room decor. The old adage that paying attention to detail certainly applies here. Michael repeatedly made us feel so welcome, as though we were guests in his own home. It was exactly the medicine we needed and more than we hoped for. If it is a being welcomed and pampered you are looking for and time away to destress, look no further. Knipoch House is the place to stay. We'll be returning!

The hotel was like visiting you great aunts manor! Stephanie helped us upon arrival and was wonderful! Dinner and breakfast were very good and not over priced. After long days of travel and exercise, finishing the night in the hot tub with glass of wine was perfection. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept very well!

Nice and charm away from Oban
Outstanding location if you like the loch view and stay away of Oban that's your place. The only downside is the quality of the water as is not treated (full disclosure provided so is not misleading) so you have to remember NOT to drinking, I think very soon they will fix this issue so hopefully won't be a problem in future Regarding of food only ate scones, claimed to be homemade which it was but not the best I had; cannot comment for other foods

Hotel is homely and staff very welcoming. Room soft furnishings etc were nice. Food supplied by the hotel was really nice, chef was great. However during our stay the water supply to the hotel is not clean, the toilets/ taps/ shower we’re all running brown/ orange water. The staff said we would have an endless supply of bottled water etc so not to worry and it was fine to bathe in as long as we didn’t drink it but it put me off using the shower etc on our overnight when I would have liked to. I also felt £40 overnight charge for our dog was a bit steep when he didn’t get any kind of welcome package/ dog bed/ biscuit included, which is the norm on any other trip we have taken him with us.
