"Brilliant stay in the hotel and special compliments to the chef."

"The location of the property is glorious, spectacular views and if you do not wish to eat in the restaurant there are several others about a one mile walk away in Balloch or a short drive. Although our room was small, it was well decorated and had everything we needed. The only downside was having a room which overlooked the roadside. It was extremely noisy with guests and staff leaving/entering the building at all times of the night/early morning and the noise from the A82 from early hours was not good. You really need to take a room overlooking the water as it will be much quieter. Breakfast choice was really good however we were disappointed that several simple dishes e.g. eggs Benedict incurred an extra £5 charge! Selection of fruits was good however on our second morning they had no natural yogurt. Also too much oil used to cook the fried food. Scrambled eggs and porridge were however delicious. Overall a good stay and lovely staff throughout."

"Clean room, quiet, great area, friendly staff. Would stay again."

"Absolutely beautiful estate, inside and out."

"Lovely hotel well placed in the village. Very friendly staff too."

"Very clean but the room was small even by European standards. "

"Spa closes early so be aware as this isn’t communicated, 5.30pm was the last entry whilst we were there. "

"Very friendly front desk. Checked me in as soon as a room was ready and was willing to also let me leave my bags next to desk. Rooms as described. Great shower. Great gym and pool attached and included. Steam and sauna. Pool kept warm. Lots of parking. Attached to the hospital but easy to get to and quiet grounds. Would stay again."

"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."
