I stayed in the single room and it was very cozy. Everything was provided: tea, towels, wifi, and a good shower. The owners were very communicative and fast problem-solving. I also loved the deer & tartan decoration! Location also great, Oban is a small town so pretty much everything is close!

We stayed two nights in Sept 2019 in the double bedroom on the second floor with street view. I think it is number 2. …

Spacious and comfortable room with ensuite bathroom, it was very clean. It was well located (5 min walk to the city center) and had private parking (which is nice since there is no free parking in Oban). …

Booked a 1 night stay via hotels.com for an en-suite but unfortunately received a message from them that this had been changed to a shared bathroom. Hotels.com a nightmare to change it back so I gave up as only 1 night stay. …

We spent in Tanglin Guest House a couple of days in June and were absolutely happy. We really felt there like at home. Everything there is on spot, everything is clean and tidy, and more over the place is run by a lovely cuple that has clearly an eye for every detail.

Reasonably priced b&b, nothing too much trouble for the hosts, loads of luxury items, plus hairdryer, iron/board. More than you'd expect from a budget guest house. Ample free parking and ideally placed for the centre of Oban and the surrounding scenery. Loved it.

Everything was great apart from I'm used to a firmer mattress, but that's my own person preference. |Has been decorated in the last few years so it looked nice and was very clean too.|Staff were helpful and friendly when they were there.

Stayed for 1 night with my partner and our son. Straightforward check in, parked right outside entrance, was clean and cosey. Within walking distance of main tourist attractions. Would highly recommend!
