Find 3 Star Hotels in Cove from SAR 225

"The mattresses and pillows were really bad. Nothing was very clean other than the bathrooms. Our sink made noises most of the night, and our toilet rarely flushed. There was incredibly limited parking. There was a leak on our ceiling and very thin walls. You could hear every other occupant. There was also an unpleasant smell in one of our two rooms."

"We had one of the few rooms that overlooked the Loch. What a view! Room was very comfortable and clean. Staff friendly and helpful. "

"Always a pleasure to stay here when an early flight is scheduled. Staff, ease of check in and soooo friendly! Thank you."

"The room was basic but very clean. The restaurant (for both an evening meal and breakfast) were very disappointing. The evening meal that I had (tikka masala curry) was average and overpriced. The breakfast was particularly bad. We arrived at 08:30 on 2 days and found that there was nearly nothing left on the 'continental' section, except for a few cereal boxes and a sorry bowl of prunes. The cooked breakfast is buffet style and was equally bad...the eggs had a hard skin on them and everything wasn't above luke warm. The staff were friendly, but there appears to be a lack of them in the restaurant (1 friendly lady running around doing everything was our experience). The location and hotel is very good for those out hiking, but as for meals I would try elsewhere. One thing that the 'spa' photos didn't capture was the "swimming lessons in progress" signs... The spa is actually a somewhat disappointing leisure centre that is not ideal for a couple on a relaxing getaway. Overall, the hotel is tired and in need of development, but if you're looking for somewhere comfortable to stay whilst hiking then it is an affordable option."

"Fast check in, friendly staff"

"Staff did the best they could and were extremely friendly but the overall stay was a big let down. We quite understood that our room would not be ready before the specified time but, as the website had mentioned a snack bar/deli we thought we'd spend some time there. Unfortunately it had closed some time ago. Although there was comfortable seating in the reception area it was freezing. We subsequently discovered that the hotel is only heated for an hour or two in the morning and again in the evening. We ate in the dining room the first evening and found the food was mediocre at best. The breakfast, however, was extremely good. It's a pity that the breakfast times were incorrect on the website meaning that our travel arrangements meant we had to skip it on our second day. Overall, very disappointing. The hotel seems to be catering for coach parties visiting for evening meals and not for the individual traveller."

"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."

"We were pleasantly surprised to find that there was a shuttle from the hotel to the airport. 2 x per hour and cheaper than a taxi. Great stuff. "

"Brilliant trip!! Everyone was so lovely! We’ll be back!!"
