Marine Hotel

Had a good stay here and Mallaig is an exceptionally beautiful village that reminded me of places like Padstow and St. Ives before they were ruined by holiday homes and tourists.Whilst they didn't have their own restaurant and bar they were happy to recommend a nice pub up the road and even gave you a business card that entitled you to 10% off food there!I had arrived straight from the Caledonian sleeper and, by the time I arrived, had spent the best part of 14 hours on trains, so it was a great relief that they were able to check me in early as I was somewhat desperate for a shower.I was travelling on a budget, so the room met my expectations, it was clean with a modern shower room, however, the window looked straight onto a wall, it was only for one night and, as I said, on a budget so certainly no complaints.I thought the breakfast in the morning was fantastic, certainly a very hearty helping, and there were multiple choices for cereal and fruit etc. as well.The only thing, which was actually quite funny and could also be easily remedied, was the fact that the bed was on coasters and the floor was laminated wood - so the moment you sat on the bed you went rolling off towards the window!Overall I would certainly come back here and stay again if I was back up that way.

Friendly and helpful staff. Room was small but nice, functional and clean. No breakfast, unfortunately. Strange animal noises from above during the night. Otherwise quiet. Earplugs provided.

Very clean and tidy people very happy and friendly breakfast very nice choice very good would stay there again.

Hotel no recomendable. Cama doble muy pequeña e incómoda. Ducha sin presión de agua. Buena situación. Personal en recepción muy amable. Relación calidad precio muy mala. Hotel demasiado caro por las instalaciones que tiene. Sin ascensor.

Tried to contact the Marine Hotel by email several times in September and October about a booking I had in September 2023, using the email address on their website (same as address as on the booking confirmation). It’s nearly December and I’ve still not had the courtesy of a response. They seem happy to take my money, but provide zero customer service thereafter. A place to avoid.

Todo muy limpio. Buenas camas y una ubicación extraordinaria para el ferry, o para moverse por la zona.Muy,muy amables. Nos ayudaron con el ticket del ferry y con el sitio donde cenar.Para colmo, la chica de la recepción es española ,y no se puede ser más competente y resolutiva.Muchas gracias y enhorabuena

Like many people we staged a sailing excursion from Mallaig and the family-run Marine was perfect for that. We arrived on a drizzling Thursday at almost midnight and were greeted in person by the staff who waited up for us. We appreciated the deep down comforter and radiators (brrrr), the location in the heart of everything and the incredible hospitality we were shown, allowing us to store a duffel for a week while we went sailing and leave bags in the lobby so we wouldn't have to lug them around before departure. The inns fill up quickly and far ahead in this busy harbor town but honestly, although you could find a little fancier, we don't think you can do much better. Thank you, Marine, and all the best of the season to you.

A beautifully decorated room in a lovely hotel perfectly positioned for the Skye ferry and exploring Mallaig! Friendly and very helpful staff too and a great bar underneath!

Clean, centrally located hotel.Friendly staff who helped us getting our bags up many flights of stairs.Good quiet sleep quality.We ordered a take out breakfast for 2 as our ferry left at 7.25. Unfortanetly we only receive a packed breakfast for 1.That was the only neg point.

Staying at the Marine Hotel was, sadly, an experience that can only be described as wholly disagreeable. Despite the initial promise of a pleasant stay, the reality was a far cry from expectation.To start with, the hotel is enshrouded in a terrible environment. A palpable sense of discomfort perpetuated the air from the moment of arrival. The surrounding area is beleaguered with noise and disorder, creating a constant and unwelcome backdrop to the stay. It seems the location was neither well-thought-out nor well-executed, undermining any potential enjoyment.But the environmental issues were just the tip of the iceberg. The hygiene standards of the Marine Hotel were glaringly poor. From unkempt rooms to uncleaned communal areas, the lack of cleanliness was ubiquitous. It was evident that basic cleanliness standards were not being met, rendering every moment spent within the hotel’s confines a challenge. A sense of neglect pervaded every corner, suggesting a severe lack of concern for guests' well-being and comfort.Moreover, the sound insulation, or rather the lack thereof, was a persistent grievance. The seemingly paper-thin walls allowed every conceivable noise to permeate the rooms. Conversations from adjacent rooms, footsteps in the corridor, and even the faintest rustle were all clearly audible, disrupting any semblance of peace or privacy. This audial assault was incessant, turning nights into a symphony of disturbances and ensuring restful sleep was unattainable.To compound these issues, the staff seemed indifferent to the plethora of problems presented to them. Attempts to address concerns were met with apathy and inaction, leaving us feeling both frustrated and unheard. It was abundantly clear that guest satisfaction was not a priority at the Marine Hotel, further tarnishing the overall experience.
