This hotel was in an unbelievable chaos with a manager who was not interested at all in guests although his unfortunate foreign staff tried as hard as they could even if they didn't actually understand what guests were requesting. Continental breakfast was the only breakfast choice and only consisted of yoghurt, fruit chocolat au pain and coffee. Only 1 foreign... more

Ok, some of the reviews are harsh and I want to defend this hotel. Accommodation in Mallaig is pretty thin on quality but this hotel is fine for what it is. It's a 2-star. It's absolutely fine. Basic, clean, and minutes from the Ferries and the Trains. We stayed for one night and have no complaints. Sure, it can do... more

We had no choice to stay anywhere else. Overpriced at £ 70.00 for a twin room and the electricity did not work when we went in at night. Overcharged for a plate of cabbage with two pieces of lamb. It was advertised Roast Lamb with mint sauce and all the trimmings an absolute joke. The staff were pleasant enough. The... more

Took train to Mallaig and had wonderful train journey. Got off at Mallaig sun was shining scenery beautiful. We had booked rooms in the Marine, had been told it had been bought over and renovated do not believe it. Also greeted with news that the kitchen was closed and no meals or breakfast available. Rooms were very very poor badly... more

Booked and paid in full for one night in advance (£70 for twin room, no breaklast) - otherwise would have gone anywhere else. With one exception, the staff were rude and surly. The first room offered had completely mis-matched furniture, stains on all carpets and surfaces, and no working TV. The room we moved (overlooking station) to had only one... more

The bath contained a live cockroach-like insect and another unidentified mini-organism with tentacles. The sink had 2 hot taps - both could produce only cold water. The view through the misted double glazing was of a back yard and tumbledown corrugated iron shed. The room furniture was run-down and tacky. The walls had nail-holes and an unoccupied picture hook, as... more

We really enjoyed our stay at the Marine Hotel. We were dubious initially as we realised there was no website and only managed to get information on the hotel via the road to the isles website where it looked very dated. Having stayed previously at the west highland hotel and not enjoyed our stay (due to the rooms being very... more

The Marine Hotel was really our last choice of where to stay in Mallaig going by the website pictures but everywhere else was fully booked up or not open when we were going so we literally had no choice. The location was great - I was there with my grandparents just for the train journey there & back & the... more

We stayed just one night at the Marine hotel, and found it to be dated & a little shabby, HOWEVER, this didn't spoil the stay at all. The lady at reception was frindly and helpful, the room was clean, towels, toiletries all there. Tv (4 channels), Shower, bath (carpet in bathroom) & a ketle. If you need a place to... more
