Proximity to station perfect. Even though they had our booking for the wrong day we were accommodated without fuss and given a choice of room. Mallaig is a small working fishing port, anyone expecting city standards needs to think again. The hotel does not have a restaurant but there are many eateries of excellent quality within metres of the hotel.

Good location next to the train station and ferry terminal, clean rooms, the staff is very kind but unfortunately no breakfast available in the hotel. You must visit the bar, where regular local visitors are villing to help. The building is old, there are some cracks in the wall. I enjoyed my stay in the room with a great view... More

I enjoyed every moment of my stay in Mallaig thanks to the Marine Hotel. With their local insight into the best country walks, best restaurants, and general great humour my stay was as welcoming and friendly as anyone could hope for. The bar downstairs is visited by regulars, fishermen and inhabitants of their untarnished, coastal utopia. Way of life here... More

No hot water. Half the electrics not working. Some rooms look out onto a wall less than 18 inches away. No staff to sort things out. An absolute disgrace to Scotland.

I stayed at this hotel in the summer of 2010. Undertaking re-furbishments, I realised the staff's embarrassment. However, the attitude of the staff and the people I met at the bar was irreproachable. I suspect sassenachs, including those from across the (Atlantic), ditch don't get it.

This was the only hotel we could find with two vacant rooms and we were not expecting mutch. First impressions were ominous but we were told when booking exactly what we would get. No reception, collect keys from the bar, and no breakfast. The price of 25 pounds per person seemed reasonable for what was offered. Our rooms on the... More

We paid 75€ for a one night stay not even including breakfast. The room was old and dirty. The bath was dirty and the shower didn't worked. We asked for help to the waitress in the pub and it took 2 hours for two men to come and tell us that it couldn't be fixed until the next day (of... More

Stayed here for one night only waiting for the ferry to Skye. The price, £50, was ok at the time we stayed and this was what made us go there as it is largely advertised outside. However, this is the only refurbishment we could find, and I suspect some of the reviews here to be bogus as the carpets for... More

When we arrived and my husband wanted to use the only toilet in the bar area. He was told in a very agressive manner by I asume the owner, a woman with very short hair. Before we could explain who we were we were told my husband could not use the toilet and we were put out and told to... More
