Falls of Lora Hotel

Location & Ambiance: Situated in a scenic area near Oban, with views of a loch or river, and historic architecture blending with modern comforts.(based on 1 review)

Dirty, mouldy room not cleaned, bedding not changed when asked due to feather allergies, mouse droppings in room. Verbally abused outside by a man who later said he was owner. Had to call the police he and a group of men intimidating me from outside my window. Said staff told him my room was full of ***** (all prescription meds - they must have gone through my bags after I showed them the dirty room. Hostile staff - major safety and repair issues - AVOID

First of all these were the only rude people we encountered in our entire trip through Scotland. Everyone except for the lovely server at breakfast was completely uninterested and thoroughly rude. To start off, we showed up well after dark because of some delays that were outside of our control. It was pouring rain. No lights AT ALL, no obvious path, and no sign pointing the way to the entry from the sketchy little car park. We were not at all certain that we were not in someone's backyard hunting around with flashlights. After taking a fall in the rain in the dark ,one of my group found the entrance. We arrived dripping wet, muddy and confused and were immediately informed that we were the last guests to arrive. Which I'm still not sure what that was even supposed to mean.... But the girl could not be bothered to even look at us because she was too busy flirting with one of the other employees. Then another employee walked through and almost spilled his drink on me. I had to jump out of his way to avoid it. Apparently it was inconvenient to have me there trying to check in. No information was given no questions were answered we were invisible essentially. That's what happens when you have teenagers running your hotel I guess. The whole hotel was super musty. You want to make space for it to be charming because you're in Scotland right and parts of it at least are a beautiful old building, but dirty. Sooooo dirty. mouse droppings behind my bed. Someone else's hair in the drain. I didn't even want to take off my shoes. It was Scotland's answer to the Overlook hotel for sure in terms of weird and creepy. Also be warned, they will go into your room without your permission while you are at breakfast " to change your linens" unless you put up the do not disturb sign.but guess what? they don't give you a do not disturb sign. We read multiple reports of peoples' things being gone through while they were at breakfast. We really should have read the reviews first. So I'm hoping mine will save you the trouble. Skip it. You would do better to sleep in the boot of your car. I do want to say that the lovely woman who served us breakfast was a bright spot. Not sure why she stays working there frankly.
