The Alexandra Hotel, Oban, in 1973, seen from the shore with its long stone frontage, corner tower and bays looking out across the water, while children scramble over the rocks below and cars line the esplanade. The large ALEXANDRA HOTEL sign still dominates the façade, reflecting the building’s long-established role on Oban’s seafront, and the scene neatly captures the mix of resort architecture, seaside leisure and everyday traffic that characterised the town in the early 1970s. The hotel was already a well-known Oban landmark by then, and records connected with Ganavan House identify an Alexandra Hotel proprietor in the late 19th century, showing how deeply the hotel was rooted in the town’s Victorian and later tourist history.
