We stayed here overnight at a weekend and after a few drinks in the bar we decided we didn’t want to search the town for somewhere to eat. Reception told us that we didn’t need to book but there was a large party due to eat at 7:30pm. We were the first ones in the restaurant and got to have a lovely sea view. I had the sirloin steak with all the trimmings which was absolutely beautiful, there was so much I couldn’t finish it. My partner had the gammon steak and only just managed to finish it. The restaurant got busier the longer we were there and the staff were really lovely. Would eat there again if staying as it’s really convenient and good quality.
I wish I had read the reviews before making a reservation. The food was disappointing, with both dinner and breakfast being below average. There was a long wait for the breakfast buffet to be replenished. Some of the condiments sachets on the tables were two months expired! I ordered the scampi, but it was small pieces surrounded by a lot of breadcrumbs that were greasy. It seems like the kitchen heavily relies on deep fat fryer and microwave. Overall, it was a bad experience - expensive and not worth repeating.
Where do I begin. I booked a night for my wife and I for one evening as the Marine advertised itself as having Spa facilities and believing it to be one of the fine hotels in town. How wrong we were! The front facade of the hotel appears very grand but that disappears the deeper into the premises you go. Beyond the reception, the floors were comically uneven and appeared to have a mind of their own. There was a strange smell in the corridors on route to our room unable to make out what it was. The room at first sight appeared pleasant having a sea view, however the facade soon diminished as there was no double glazing and the window was covered in condensation thus eliminating that sea view. It gave the impression of being a glorified 70’s seaside b&b which had been given a lick of paint. We ventured to the afore mentioned Spa facilities and were at a loss how the establishment considered itself worthy of a “Spa” status for what was basically a very dangerous hot tub in a cellar. There was a handrail to help you up the steps to the tub (where you promptly hit your head on the low ceiling) but no rail to guide you into the tub on very slippery steps. Unfortunately while entering I slipped and fell down two of the steps on my derriere having recently had twin hip replacement this was not ideal. I reported the matter to reception staff who stated they would pass the details on to management. Of note my wife also stated that the ladies changing room had an over powering stench of cat urine (not sure they would advertise it as that) it was extremely strong. The Marine appears to be charging premium rates for budget quality.
A group of six key workers arrived at the restaurant excited for an afternoon tea after a long day at work. We were told that the price was £16.95 each for a large afternoon tea with chips. However, when it arrived, we were shocked to see that all we received was what was pictured. When we asked about the missing items, we were informed that this was all they typically serve. To make matters worse, one of the sandwiches had a hair in it and there were no chips as promised. We were charged a total of £101.70 for the disappointing meal and ultimately refused to pay, choosing to leave instead.
