For the second tiime in a row I have been struck by the curse of the imposing building. Looks lovely on the outside however very poor on the inside. This hotel could be wow if it was refurbished. As it is the room was not up to standard and there was mould in the bathroom. Not a good start. I... More

Stayed for one night. Had a room on the third floor and when I asked if there was a lift, I was informed in no uncertain terms that this "is a listed building". No offer was made to assist myself or my colleague with our bags! Rooms are clean if a bit dated. Whilst we both had sea views the... More

Nice grand looking hotel right opposite the car ferry, so didn't get lost much. Nicely decorated inside warm clean and welcoming. Staff were very friendly, professional and polite and with our luck gave us a free upgrade to seaview (added bonus).Bedroom was very spacious, clean warm and with restricted scenic views. Good full cooked scottish breakfast, a bit greasy for... More

We stayed from Friday 28Th to Sunday 30Th Oct 11 and we had a fantastic time, the food was first class, the staff were excellent and the entertainment was brilliant, the only downside was the bedrooms were just a bit tired looking but they were very clean, we will definitely visit again and looking forward to it already.

We'd stayed here in 1998 on a classic car tour of Scotland & as we were doing the same again decided on a repeat visit on the way south. Previous reviews are pretty accurate; the Royal Marine is an impressive building & right opposite the Dunoon ferry which is handy. It does need money spending on it, but as another... More

As a weary lone female traveller I called at the hotel to ask if I could dine at the hotel as a non resident. The restaurant manager was immediately kind and helpful. At his suggestion I opted for the hotel's cosier bistro bar. The food was excellent as was the service. I was made to feel relaxed and comfortable. A... More

This is a lovely ivy clad victorian hotel with a fascinating history. The weekend break was excellent value for the money - 2 nights bed and breakfast, champagne reception, 4 course dinner and entertainment both evenings. We had a very large room (with enormous ensuite facilities) and a beautiful sea-view. The food was wonderful and the staff so welcoming, friendly... More

Stayed here in September for a one night break which we booked as a discount offer and had a 'superior' sea view room. The outside of the hotel is very impressive. Once you enter you start to feel slightly disappointed. When we went up to our room we had to laugh! The best way to describe it would be a... More

Stayed here in early August as part of a business trip. Only for that i would not dream of staying there. The hotel is old. It could do with a massive makever. We stayed in the Lodge. The rooms were not great, a piping hot radiator on full blast in mid summer is never a good sign. At least we... More
