The staff at the royal Marine would not do any more for you, the room was upgraded to a sea view and that was amazing, we sat and had two beautiful dinners, the dining room is redecorated wonderfully and they even did a santas grotto. It’s like fine dining for incredibly prices, I really wish more people start to visit so they can keep bringing this old hotel back to full glory, they deserve it. Would we stay again absolutely!!

The lady who checked us in was lovely however the room was eclectic to say the least, a massive picture of David Bowie on one wall was odd to say the least but more importantly the radiator on the wall didn’t work and neither did the hot water to the sink after having left the tap running for several minutes but it was a clean room
