Wonderful getaway in a beautiful hotel and town.
Pros:

Amy at the front desk was amazing. She answered all our questions and provided wonderful insight on North Berwick.

Cons:

The room with the bath and shower along with the superbly comfortable bed made our stay fabulous.

Nice enough but won't be back
Pros:

The public areas of the hotel are beautiful, the views are unbelievable from main reception/ lobby

Cons:

The bedrooms and ensuites are dated, felt like a Premier Inn. Definitely not what I expected for what we paid or from having visited other Marine and Lawn hotels recently.
The rooms are stifling. Far too hot. Turned the radiators off completely and theres still heat coming out of them. The windows , whilst original and beautiful, are impossible to open. I tried and failed a couple of times during the night. It was a very uncomfortable sleep.

Staff and facilities great, just sort out the heating!
Pros:

Lovely setting and very handy for my trip visiting family

Cons:

Far, far too hot. Turned off the towel rail and radiator, kept the window open at all times but still far too hot through out the hotel.
This is an on going problem I would say with The Marine, having stayed many times and in different seasons over the years. I’m aware it’s an old building and that it takes a while for the heating to heat up and cool down, but I can honestly say, even in winter, I have never found it cold or even remotely cool.

Gorgeous staff. Stunning views. Beautiful place to escape to for a couple of days.
Pros:

Absolutely stunning views. Beautiful location. Lovely foyer. Rooms were nice.

Mostly though - the staff were unbelievably friendly and down to earth. Not forced - very natural and helpful welcoming and chatty.

Very enjoyable
Pros:

Friendly helpful staff.
Nice location.

Cons:

It felt a little tired and in need of a bit of attention.
An example was the large window(s) needed replacing in reception area which spoiled the lovely view. This seems trivial but I would make it a priority as it’s such a beautiful location.
