The Esplanade, Dunoon STB 3-star

Four nights dinner, bed & breakfast

Situated on the West Bay Promenade with stunning views, this hotel offers a warm welcome, friendly service and comfortable accommodation. The hotel has mandatory steps in and around the hotel that need to be negotiated on a daily basis to access the public lounge bar/dining room as well as the entertainment room, and to some rooms, therefore may prove difficult for those with restricted mobility. The lift does not serve all floors/public areas. Porterage is included.
