I stayed two nights in the Kilmartin Hotel to walk the pre-historic sites in the area. Because I was on foot and there's not much else in town, I ended up eating 5 meals in a row at the hotel. Every one of them was good: two Scottish breakfasts, steak and ale pie, curry of the day, and smoked salmon salad. I loved this place and the people. The owner, Richard, is a truly good hard-working local guy and his staff are very friendly and attentive. In the bar at night, the locals are super nice and it's great not to be surrounded by other tourists. The hotel is 360 years old. If you're looking for modern and sparkling, this isn't your place, but if you're looking for warmth and authenticity, this is it. I was worried the noise from the bar might keep me up, but upstairs in my room I couldn't hear a thing and slept well in the comfy bed. I was on the 3rd floor (no lift) and up there were no showers (don't know about 2nd floor) but after a day of hiking in the mist a hot bath was just the ticket! The bus from Oban stops directly at the hotel. Highly recommend!
