Description

The Argyll Arms Hotel, located at 60 Cross Street in Campbeltown, was designed by James Weir around 1900. This three-storey, three-bay hotel is set on a terraced site and constructed from sandstone ashlar. It features a high base course that is moulded at the top, along with an eaves course. The ground floor has bipartite windows flanking an architraved entrance door, which is topped with a keystone at the center.

On the first floor, there are large five-light canted oriel windows flanking a blank central bay, which are connected by a plain balustrade. The oriels are supported by a string course at the base, have a cill course, and are topped with a corniced parapet. Above these, slightly advanced tripartite windows are present, each with tall corniced stone dormer heads that break the eaves and feature finials.

To the rear, there is a projecting three-storey, four-bay wing that is cement-rendered, with raised margins and projecting cills on the windows. The hotel has plate glass timber sash and case windows, with four-pane windows at the rear. The entrance features a six-panel, two-leaf fielded panel door, a glazed inner screen, and two-leaf glazed doors with diagonal brass handles. The second floor displays cast-iron lettering that reads "Argyll Arms Hotel."

The building has profiled gutters at the eaves on both the front and rear, with square section downpipes framing the facade, complete with hoppers and brackets at the front. The roof is covered with grey slate, and there are ashlar stacks with rendered sides and round cans, as well as rendered and shouldered wallhead stacks flanking the rear wing and an apex stack at the end gable, all coped with round cans. The gables feature skew copes.

Inside, the entrance vestibule has a panelled dado.
