Marine Hotel

Criccieth

It's a lovely hotel. With lovely views. Well stocked with amenities like tea and coffee making facilities, bathroom essentials, plates, cutlery and a fridge. Very well clean room. There's plenty of information about the room, hotel and the local area of Criccieth in a file. Could of had breakfast included. Staff very friendly and helpful. The shop/bar at the entrance to the hotel is very nice.

My stay at the Marine Hotel

AVOID THIS PLACE. Myself and friends stayed there for a couple of nights. The bedroom looked like something out of a C.I.A or crime investigation place. The bathroom was so fluorescent it looked like Rodney Trotter of only fools and horses painted it with leftover paint. The carpet was stained in almost every place. There was blood on the curtains (small amounts) But it was vile. To my surprise the staff where as disgusting as the place. The short one was vile. He shouted at us when we asked for a pool ball and also complained that he had to cook food. In summary if you want a dirty piss stained hotel and only one beer from the bar feel free to stay here.

Rude staff and disgusting place

Beware! Stupidly booked before I read reviews and tried to cancel booking ten minutes after confirmation email. Couldn’t get anything done until following morning and lost £137 for booking without looking!

Don’t book until you check reviews! Expensive mistake!! £137 lost in process.

Great Location close to the beach and plenty of parking.  The hotel itself if dreadful.  Half the building appears to be closed off being unfit for human habitation and the rest is  passed its sell be date putting it mildly.  The room furniture looked like a charity shop clearance sale and the shower had black mould around the edges. No hot water and had to boil the kettle to shave. The lounges, ground floor toilets and dining areas had not been cleaned with dust and dead flies throughout and papers towels littered on the grubby floor in the toilets. No one has bothered to water the plants that were withering an dying just like the hotel generally.  The outside patio area is a disgrace with rotting garden furniture, weeds and flaky paintwork. Hadn't seen a broom all year.  Breakfast below average.  Tinned grapefruit and prunes days old. Ugh!!

Dreary beyond Belief

In Brief, Do NOT book this hotel (unless you want your wife to leave you) ....... Move on and find another - do not be tempted by its price (We paid £85 quid) ....... how bad can it be ? ........ Well shockingly bad is the answer. it's absolutely awful. Dirty, unkept, tired, mouldy showers etc. STAY AWAY, you've been warned ! 

Its ran by a couple from down south who bought it about 20 years ago by all accounts and to be fair to them as people, they are nice and friendly to chat to for 5 minutes ..... This review isn't knocking them personally, just their filthy hotel !

They clearly either have no idea or do have an idea and are just raping it for every penny they can get ........ My guess was it might have been semi decent when they bought it, but it doesn't look as if its had a single penny spent anywhere in the last 20 years. 

The showers and bathrooms are disgusting (black mould everywhere), bath mats that look like they could walk away themselves (make sure you wear shoes when you go for a pee !) ....... The rooms can be described as very very tired and dirty/grubby with cheap golden pine furniture that was the fashion in the 1980's, marks on the walls, 20 yr old carpet etc ...... Downstairs isn't much better, the bar area is complemented with dark red velour upholstery straight from a 1970's bad tv show. The breakfast wasn't totally horrendous and there is tea/coffee, toast and cereal, but the fry up is poor. Cheap sausage, sloppy bacon very fatty. 

Exterior wise the kerb appeal is zero. have they never heard of a broom or something called weeding and painting ! .... your running a hotel for cripes sake !!!!! ..... I could go on, but look at the photos and make your own mind up

Awfully poor, sad dirty place (But charging half decent rates)

We booked two rooms in this hotel for two nights for 2 adults and 3 children (15,16,2). When we arrived after nearly 6 hours of road trip, the very first thing that been told to us that we cannot stay because the booking was made for 4 adults only! I have tried to show them conformation email that clearly says one twin room and one quadruple room for 5 people, but they refused to look at it and started to shout on us to go away. We were completely shocked and when i asked ok where should we go at about half past eight Friday night, 6 hours away from home, with kids and little baby... They just said they do not care we cannot stay in their hotel as we are liars! We did find another hotel and had to travel another 2.5 hours but after looking at other reviews I understand that we were lucky not to stay there.

stay away from this hotel

We showed up at their door at night with our kids, one of them’s just a baby. May I just say we didn’t provoke anything or behave in a rude way at all. The staff finds a mistake (that wasn’t our fault) in the booking and first thing he does is disrespectfully tells us to get our. We try to find out why but they start raising their voices. With a storm outside and a baby they were screaming at us saying we cannot stay in a room we booked a few days before this. Threatening us with calling the police and bringing up the most irrational arguments to make us leave. We were not only scared but confused about the reason for all this passionate anger and complete lack of rational thinking. If anything the person looked like he was afraid of children.

After looking for the hotel for the whole night, luckily we found one 3 hours away from this one. The next morning, we get an email saying we need to pay a charging fee for not showing up at that hotel. 

This is just unbelievable, please be aware of this before you come there.

Worst holiday experience in my life

The owner is very friendly, the bed is very average, the hotel is out of time but at an excessive rate compared to the service.

More than an old man

Other reviews aren't wrong, the place could use a bit of sprucing up. BUT this is a great little hotel. Our room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was good. And the couple who run it couldn't be nicer. And the location is amazing! We would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

Great Stay 

Situated right across the road from the castle and with views to the beach below, it is located in a perfect spot.  The town is so picturesque and the beach and surrounding hillside are amazing.  The hotel is in dire need of an update, carpets are old and the rooms are dated but having said that, it is clean, comfortable and the owners were lovely to talk to.  Certainly not a five star hotel but perfect for an overnight country charm stay.
