I had occasion to stay in Argyll hotel on 24th December and 31st December 2022. The building is architecturally pleasing. I was delighted on both occasions to find that the heaters were already on in the rooms, and the rooms lovely and warm. Everything was sparkling clean. The shower had very good water pressure. Staff were welcoming and friendly. I had dinner in the restaurant both times and the food was tasty. I ate breakfast there on one of the stays, and the full cooked breakfast was very good. This is a boutique style hotel, in a historic building. The price was very reasonable. Don't expect five-star levels of amenity - you'd pay several times as much for that. There is free WIFI for internet and it was rock solid (I had a little trouble connecting, but that is the fault of my new laptop, not the hotel's WiFi). I had a comfortable stay which met my needs perfectly, staff were nice, and I'd happily stay there again.

On my second overnight stay, Room 119 had only one hanger in the little wardrobe. This was not a serious inconvenience, however!

Based myself here for 2 nights whilst walking the Cowal Way. Prices for hotels en route were unaffordable for a solo walker. Great location 5 minutes from the pier for ferries and buses. Single room was warm, had hot drinks and a TV. Ensuite small but functional Very reasonable price for a single walker. I don't normally eat at hotel restaurants but after the first night, decided it was so good value that I would eat there the second night. Italian/Spanish menu - good sized tasty portios at a very reasonable price.

Lift was very slow but that's a minor dislike

I asked for a room with a river/sea view and the room I was given was exceptional from this point of view. It was on the 2nd floor and on the front corner of the building, with excellent river/sea views in both directions.

Apart from the stunning views, the room itself, along with much of the hotel, is rather jaded and well past its prime. The mattress was sagging, mould was beginning to appear on the bathroom ceiling (I'm used to that but other people would not be happy), the carpet was worn, the lift creaked ominously. The restaurant is very small and the food is just adequate - not what I would expect from the premium hotel in town.

Staff were very welcoming and let us have early check in which was much appreciated. Room has an amazing view in two directions of beautiful scenery. Bed was comfy, pillows soft, excellent provision of tea, biscuits and bathroom soaps etc. Bar was well priced too and such a great location for exploring the area with a bus stop just outside, ferry across the road and taxi firm not far away.

The bathroom light did that painful kind of extreme flicker to get on, that means going to the bathroom in the middle of the night does wake you up a lot. Have to consider the age of the property though in which case the light is completely normal.

Cracking hotel. Warm welcome. Great size room. Bathroom very modern (loved the mirror). Beautiful smelling toiletries, lovely soft towels. Tea, coffee, biscuits, kettle, bottles of water, and hairdryer provided. Lovely staff.. Gr8 bar. Only had a snack before leaving, which was good, so I can't really comment on the restaurant. Although it is beautiful and modern (Rio). Would definitely return and recommend to friends and family. 😁

Mattress was a bit hard for me., but that may be just preference. The only thing i would suggest is hooks for jackets in the room, especially when it's chucking it down outside, and you need to hang your soaking coat somewhere. No fridge in room to keep drinks cold. Even a mini fridge would have been ideal. 😉

Excellent location and facilities for staff team based in the area for special meetings and events. The key merits of this hotel are always the staff, always professional welcoming and friendly. Rooms are comfortable and the lounge areas are good too, although the owners would better serve customers well with refurbishment.

The entire hotel requires refurbish - very dated and many items well worn through decades of use

Location, facilities and staff friendliness. The staff went above and beyond for us. My fiancée took ill and was taken to hospital. The staff went out of their way to make my stay easier and more comfortable. Special mentions go to Ashleigh, John,Erin,Shannon, the breakfast staff, and anyone else who's names I didn't get. I can never thank you enough for your kind hospitality, but, thank you so so much. We will hopefully see you all soon

Nothing

The hotel is quirky and beautiful! The staff are absolutely engaging and helpful, happy to give suggestions and genuinely cared about how our stay was, how are meals were and especially what we were going to do with our time in Dunoon! We we recommend this hotel to anybody visiting dunoon and we will absolutely be back! A note to anyone enjoying their restaurant, go for the lasagna!

It was perfect!

Spacious room with king sized comfortable bed. The view of the forth of Clyde, of the shore line and spectacular scenery made my stay an absolute pleasure. Everything was clean and tidy and adequate facilities. Receptionist was very hospitable, helpful and friendly and overall was a great choice.

The lift was disabled but not a great problem for me. Also, a rather stale smell throughout the Hotel but tolerable and not a big issue.

The location was great. Some great bars close by. There was even free parking just across the road. The room itself was a great size, as was the bathroom and the view of the Firth of Clyde was fantastic.

Nothing much to dislike apart from the carpet needs a deep clean and the toilet seat needs fixing as it was broken, but it certainly didn't spoil our stay
