We are the biggest Hostel in Oban with a wide range of private rooms, not only dorm beds.

Over here at Backpackers Plus we have a big lounge/ dining area with open plan kitchen that is good for catering for up to 50 people. We have plenty of board games and a pool table, so even on cold and rainy (a.k.a. Scottish) days there’s plenty to do. Depending on the size of your group we can usually offer exclusive use of the building, so the teachers can relax a bit and don’t have to worry about the kids all the time.
