comments This is a perfect stopping off point for us while travelling north. Our room was clean and very comfortable, well decorated with ample storage space. The robes, slippers and Penhaligon bath supplies were put to good use before we enjoyed an excellent dinner which was well presented and delicious. We particularly enjoyed the local haggis, smoked fish and venison dishes. The first class leisure centre facilities, comfortable lounge with inviting open fire and the top notch breakfast all made our stay most enjoyable.

comments The stay although short was very relaxing. The staff were very nice, the hotel decor lovely without being themed and the added bonus of Tigger the cat on our laps made it an extremely enjoyable experience which we look forward to repeating again soon.

comments The Royal Marine will ensure you are made to feel welcome. Afternoon tea and pre dinner drinks in front of a open fire, we could have stayed in the lounge for ever. Compliments to the cook and the service. We liked it a lot and we were clearly not the only ones. Make sure you book your table. We usually have deep pockets but on this occasion I had no problem finding a generous tip. Well done management and staff, a great team 10/10. Roy and Herma Witteveen
Hotel Response:

Thank you very much for your lovely comments, it is very relaxing in front of the fire, and glad to hear you enjoyed your evening meal. We hope we have th oportuntiy to welcome you back to the hotel in the future.

comments Lovely hotel. Our room was well appointed & very comfortable, lovely smellies in the bathroom with robes and slippers provided. There is a choice of three dining rooms, we ate in the more formal Lorimer room where the food and the service was exemplary. The leisure facilities consist of a good sized swimming pool with sauna & jacussi, and decent showering and changing areas. Very pleasant public areas throughout the hotel to sit and enjoy a drink or coffee. All in all a very enjoyable place to stay and I would recommend wholeheartedly to anyone.

comments Very pleasant 2 night stay. Staff friendly and helpful. Location wonderful. We last stayed at the hotel 25 years ago. It was lovely to return after such a length of time. On the first occassion we stayed in the honeymoon suite and booked the same suite again for this trip. Initially could not recognise the layout of the room, but on asking found out that rooms had been updated and switched, so we were not staying in the same room. No problem as this room was superior. Very large room with comfortable 4-poster bed.
Hotel Response:

Lovely to hear you like our spacious 4 Poster Room, and that you once agin enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to being able to welcome you back to the hotel again soon.

comments A really beautiful hotel. The Service is rapid but not hurried, and the food is good. Especially the freshly-cooked breakfast - no butter packets! - a treat. Very comfortable public areas too The hotel was very busy, but coped effortlessly. We had a slight mix-up on arrival in that one of the sumptuous apppartments was made available - nearby - yes, but I had not properly understood. On a dark night in the rain, we needed a guide dog. But if you are offered this, be delighted. The appartments are sumptuous too, and the view at dawn is lovely. In the end, we were very happy.
Hotel Response:

Thank you for your positive comments, pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay, sorry for the confusion with the apartment, but glad to hear overall it was lovely.

comments Room was much smaller than shown on their website, not large enough for 2 people and our luggage. Awakened by trucks delivering to the hotel as early as 6.30 AM. Food was very good.
Hotel Response:

Unfortunately we are unable to show all of our rooms on the website and with the hotel being built as a private house every room is different in size and views they offer. We have spoken to our delivery men and hope that this has been rectified.

comments We've been twice now to the Royal Marine for quick overnight gettaways from Inverness and have been deligthed with our stay both times. Everything about the hotel, from the bath products, to the gym and swimming pool, to the log fires, to the quality magazines and papers which are distributed on coffee tables, give a feeling of luxury to what is a very reasonably costed stay. We even got a free room upgrade on our second visit which we were delighted with. (And did we mention you get chocolates with your coffee!!)

Thank you for your kind comments, as you know feed back is very important to us and we where delighted to have been able to give you a free up-grade on your return visit to the hotel.

Thank you for your comments and we note that you were in one of our small standard rooms and recommend that if we have the pleasure of welcoming you back, you either ask for one of the larger standard rooms or up-grade to one of our classic rooms.
