Best Luxury Hotels in Firth of Clyde

"A standout stay at a characterful hotel in a great location. The Royal Marine Hotel perfectly balances traditional charm with tasteful modern touches, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. What truly sets this place apart is the hospitality. Richard, the owner, leads a first-class team who clearly take pride in what they do. From the moment we arrived, the welcome was genuine and personable, and that level of care remained consistent right through to our departure. The on-site bar is both cosy and well-stocked, and the food deserves special mention. The menu focuses on high-quality, home-cooked dishes done exceptionally well. The handmade burger was a highlight—easily one of the best I’ve had—and it convinced us to stay for breakfast the following morning, which was equally impressive. In terms of value, service, and overall experience, The Royal Marine Hotel delivers on every level. It’s the kind of place you look forward to returning to—and we certainly will be. Highly recommended."

"Absolutely stunning. If you find yourself on the Isle of Arran do not pass up the chance to stay."

"My stay at Marine Troon was outstanding. The hotel staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make my stay a memorable one. The service was on par with any 5 star hotel I have been to. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The food was solid. The convenience to several of Scotland's beat golf courses was amazing. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to explore this beautiful area."

"Staff were excellent, helpful and polite. Room was clean although soap, was open on sink. In morning turned shower on, drain was blocked, as tray was low rim, water overflowed quickly on bathroom floor, dried with towels into toilet. Went to reception, staff came along quickly and sorted out vacant room to have shower. Breakfast good selection, bacon not very well cooked, otherwise ok. "

"The hotel is well located for lovely local towns, as well as being right on the beach for nice views and / or walks. The room was extremely spacious and well equipped, and breakfast was very nice - my only complaint would be that it would be ideal to be served a bit later for those travelling for leisure (who like a long lie!). I had an amazing massage at the spa and was lucky with a warm sunny day (in April!), meaning I felt like I was abroad as I sat in the spa pool / sun lounger awaiting my treatment. Free car parking is a bonus. Not cheap but definitely worth it!"

"Great staff all round. Breakfast menu had good choice. Meals in main restaurant had something for everyone. "

"Spotlessly clean lodge, friendly staff, quick room service. Will definitely be back for longer."

"Spa garden rooms were beautiful and the staff were amazing. Dinning is not fast so leave enough time."
