Nice stop on driving trip in Scotland
Very convenient location on quiet road. Nice room, comfortable beds, and view. Good breakfast. Nearest restaurants to hotel are 6 miles away but Hotel Argyll worth the drive for dinner.

Needs big facelift
Looks very dated when turned up: paint peeling off, very outdated, hardly anyone there in the middle of summer, water didn't get hot, so couldn't have a bath, dead midgies in towel (although otherwise clean), place boiling and bed uncomfortable: sloped off at edges, so nearly fell out twice and didn't sleep well. Guy was friendly and breakfast good

Weird guy
Fawlty towers mentality from one of those owners that makes you think - why bother??????. Potentially nice hotel that owner has had for 5 years but left in a bit of a state. Could be much much more - but isn't. Owner sarcy and unhelpful. Every request greeted with a sigh before an answer. Bedroom clean if old fashioned. My advice? Keep on the short distance to Lochgilphead!

Nice place to stay
We only stayed one night but had a very enjoyable dinner (the steak pie received rave reviews) and the hosts set us up for a self-serve early morning breakfast since we had to leave around 6:00 a.m. to catch the early ferry to Islay. It was a clean friendly homey place that met our expectations and suited us perfectly. We would stay there again.

BEAUTIFUL LOCATION
Hotel looked 'tired' although the owner is working on it. The room we had would have been suited to hostelers (bunk beds) but as we were only staying one night the room suited our needs. Hotel is situated in a stunning area of Scotland with some beautiful walks and biking routes. Im not sure we would stay again as there was no information given regarding meals or entertainment etc. Im sure we paid for breakfast but because we were unaware of details we left without having anything to eat.

The hotel needs work. It was very easy to find and the breakfast was good. Don't expect much. It was clean but like i said needs a lot of work.

Pete the landlord is completely hands on from welcoming you at reception to serving drinks at the bar as well as waiting at the dining table. He is a tireless host who cannot do enough to make your stay a trouble free and happy one.

DISAPPOINTING!
The 'hotel' was closed over lunch time. I had arranged to meet a person travelling, like me for 2 hours +. He had to wait outside in the car park because it was closed. Why? Because people would use the toilets! A hotel must be open. I booked in because I presumed it would be open for lunch etc. I would not have stayed otherwise. The dining room had 3 broken panes of glass, one a hole of a cm width. The shower could not be made to work; I did not get a shower during my stay. The building looks good until you look carefully: the window frames need paint; are rotting. The breakfast was ordinary. There were very few staff: I saw only two. I do not think it is run as a hotel should be. There are conference rooms: they were promisiing; but full of rubbish. This is in a very nice village between two centres and should be a great place. Probably, there is not enough trade. If it were well run and had really good cooking it would be a great asset, valued, to which many would come. I could not get the tv to work. No instructions. I could not find my room because there was no light switch and the hall was in darkness. This is not a welcoming hotel.
