Isle of Bute hotel guide. Freetobook hotel in Isle of Bute, Rothesay

"My wife and I had a decent stay at the Royal Marine, though it was a bit of a mixed bag. The building looks magnificent, and although a little tired, has fantastic potential with some TLC. Our room was spotless, and we enjoyed paying extra for the sea view; watching the ferry terminal activity was actually quite relaxing. However, the hotel is feeling a little run-down and in need of some modernising. We also found the breakfast disappointing, which let the experience down. Whilst we enjoyed our visit to Dunoon, I doubt we'll be rushing back anytime soon."

"Best place we stayed in the UK. My husband and I stayed at over half a dozen hotels on our trip to the UK this one was by far the most enchanting stay. Our room was something out of a storybook floor to celling drapes enclosed picturesque windows of stunning Scotlan veiws. The Loch"

"Everything was great location as well be back again"

"The room was clean and the hotel was full of charm. We had a lovely stay. The bed was not as soft as I prefer but we still slept well. The location is wonderful"

"Reception, lu”lounge and bar area give an impression of a quality hotel. Unfortunately the bedrooms and food do not match up. Some serious money needs spending on the rooms and the catering for functions needs a good look at too. We left very disappointed "

"Great ambience nice family owned hotel with a beautiful history "

"Poor continental breakfast. Pillows were very small."

"The hotel was perfectly situated for catching the ferry in the morning. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was good, both in the restaurant in the evening and at breakfast."

"The room was dated, pillows awful and bed was not comfortable. I doubt I would stay again as the price did not reflect in the room standard. We attended a Wedding which was faultless, staff were fantastic and food excellent, shame about the room. "
