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 

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

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.

Excellent location

We had a large room with wonderful views of the castle. This hotel has a prime position on the front with parking opposite. It would benefit from some modernisation especially the bathroom which is quite dated with a shower
 over the bath. Old dirty looking shower curtain. However the room had plenty of furniture, a good sized tv and a comfortable bed. The cooked breakfast could be better - all fried and small portion but there was a reasonable choice compared to some places. A bit overpriced for the standard of room but it's worth it for the views. 

Great view of castle

We stayed in the castle suite with our two children, the views were amazing, the castle was right across the road and a sea view as well. The room itself was spacious and comfortable and very quiet, although there was another family in the room next door we couldn't hear them from our room. The breakfast was delicious although not really big enough for larger appetites, my husband was only given one rasher of bacon, one sausage and one egg. The couple who run the hotel were very friendly and helpful. The only downside is that while the hotel was very clean and comfortable it was quite rundown and could certainly benefit from some renovations, and although we did go in the height of the season we did feel that £292 for two nights midweek was a bit expensive for this hotel.

Fantastic views

First impression was of a tired building a bit run down and in need of a few coats of paint. The hotel had redeeming features however, primarily the lovely friendly and informative people who own and run it, the excellent breakfast and a room, which, although a bit old fashioned in decor was comfortable and clean. The hotel welcomes dogs and children. It is really well located for the castle, the town and the beach with good free parking across the road. It met our requirements very well despite our original misgivings.

Don’t judge on first impression

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
