Marine North Berwick

一切都很讓人滿意，attentive personnel, good room setup! Cheers!

The Marine Hotel in North Berwick has a fabulous location - right on the sea front with super views to Bass Rock. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Bar food was good and breakfast was fine though very small portions. But the biggest let down is the decor in the bedrooms - dark brown and orange flowered wallpaper with mismatched side tables. It was really oppressive and claustrophobic. I understand a lot of refurbishment was done only a few years ago, but the bedroom interior designer should be sacked! Downstairs was lovely. That’s the second time I have stayed here this year but tbh I don’t think I will book again because the wallpaper is so off putting. Truly off putting. 🙁

We spend the weekend at this hotel. We didn’t have a good experience at the beginning : torn bathrobe and dirty pillow case, contacted the receptionist and we got the new ones. They weee quick in replacing them but the room and everything else should have been checked really before presenting the room to guests. Besides this , I had a very good experience at the spa. My husband booked me in for a facial treatment I have had many facials in the past but this experience was the best. Sarah made me feel very comfortable, she took her time, was gentle and she was very thorough. I highly recommend this spa and I highly recommend Sarah.

Everything was brilliant, from the reception, to the concierge , to the restaurant to the room. Absolutely delightful. We will definitely be staying there again. We couldn't have wished for more. They even provided a complimentary bottle of Prosecco for our anniversary, ready and waiting in our beautiful room. The view of the sea was stunning. This review just doesn't do it justice. Please visit if you can, you will not be disappointed.

We’ve visited several times over the years, but this weekend probably marks our last. James in concierge was superb, as was the overall reception team. However, the restaurant “refurb” is not good, the US style booths are out of place, and appear to have reduced capacity; they’ve certainly affected the ambiance. The dining experience was so noisy on Saturday night it was more akin to an inner city chain restaurant. Despite this obvious push for numbers Hotel guests struggled to get a reservation for dinner. We were given a booking after 9pm. I meandered to reception at 5.30pm thinking I’d have no problem for 7.45pm …oh well, rookies error! Anyway, the menu has morphed into a rather odd (&limited) selection of Italian plates, utterly incongruous to the overt Scottish fabric of the place. The rooms remain spacious & pleasant, but we struggled to understand the choice of wallpaper which has quite a claustrophobic effect!! Clearly it’s each to their own as others seem to appreciate it. The Marine is a beautiful hotel and (thankfully) the public areas remain a jewel in the crown, but bar & restaurant service was frustratingly poor. Seemed to be a combination of inexperienced staff & limited leadership. My impression is this hotel will eventually lose its loyal clientele & become a “one visit” tourist spot, which is a shame because it has all the attributes of being a trusted hotel in that part of Scotland.

This was our third visit and, sadly, probably our last. Location + reception area remain superb. However there were disappointments this time. We didn't get the room we'd asked + paid for - sea view rather than de-luxe sea view. Shower had no pressure. Had to ask 3 times for dog bed. Dinner is no longer local Scottish cuisine but Italian! Very limited + expensive. Arrived on time for 7 pm booking. At 7.30 were asked what we wanted + at 8 pm finally served. Breakfast was ok but not as good as previous visits. Much to love about this place but service + facilities just not what they were.

We stayed for 2 nights, the property is amazing, the views stunning and the food and service were excellent.

Hotel is amazing, well appointed and has the best views of the golf and sea. Rooms are very clean and spacious. Super high ceilings. I could live there. Staff is very friendly. Have been before and will definitely return.

I've been here a few times in the past and I've been pleased with it but this visit I'm not happy with the bathroom, which to me is definitely not of 5 star standard, Premier Inn bathrooms are nicer! Mine at home is so much nicer. The food and reception are satisfactory but the decor in corridors is tired and chipped and needs upgrading I feel we're paying for the view here!
