…Check out the sky room…

They call themselves ‘Oban’s favourite hostel’ at Backpacker’s Plus in, usurprisingly, Oban. The visitor’s reviews on social media back this up:

“Lovely town! Lovely Hostel!”

“Really cool place with great facilities.” “Such a great experience, this was the first Hostel I have stayed in which leaves everything else with a lot to live up to!”

Oban is a great place to explore the islands or launch off into the Trossachs or the Highlands. The hostel’s got a funny and funky sense of fun, check out the gallery on their website to see for yourself – look at how they’ve given each of big comfy beds its own name!

But the feature that jumps out is their epic Sky Room! A huge open-plan social space running across the top of the building, loaded with squidgy sofas, pool and table football and about a million roof windows pointing up to the sky. Cool.
