Frommer's Review
One of Oban's more upscale inns, Dungallan House was built for the Campbells around 1870. It was used as a hospital during World War I and as a naval office during World War II, but today it's the artfully furnished domain of Millie and Marion Stevenson-Coates, who maintain the high-ceilinged proportions and antique furniture with devotion. The guest rooms have been refurbished, each with quality furnishings. All but two single rooms have small bathrooms, some of which contain a tub/shower combination. Breakfasts are served in grand style in the formal dining room; dinners can be arranged, and though priority is granted to guests, nonguests can usually have a meal here if they phone ahead. Two hectares (5 acres) of forest and gardens surround the house, and views stretch out over the Bay of Oban and its islands. Children under 12 are not welcome.
Facilities:
Dining room; lounge; nonsmoking rooms

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
