We had a wonderful weekend break in North Berwick at the marine hotel: great sea air, wonderful service and great dining
Pros:

Great sea views and walks either on beach or into town.
Fantastic food: we ate in the restaurant and bar and had great meals on both occasions.
Service and staff wonderful.
Very dog friendly.
Good parking across the road.
Excellent to have swimming pool and spa on site.
Relaxing weekend to spoil ourselves.

Cons:

Our room was on the top floor with no aircon or ability to open a window. It became a bit stuffy and interrupted a good nights sleep. Decor a bit eclectic and fussy for us in the room.

Generally excellent
Pros:

Room excellent. Light switches and electric sockets are where you want them to be. Breakfast is very good. Spacious lounge areas.

Cons:

The orange juice at breakfast is cheap stuff and a real let-down. And there was one member of staff who didn't meet the high standards of the rest - the night receptionist to whom I reported the breakdown of the (only) lift. He didn't apologise and didn't really care.

A magnificent, historic hotel with a fantastic view.
Pros:

This is a magnificent, historic hotel offering fantastic views of the North Berwick Golf Club, the blue sea, and Bass Rock. Everything was delightful—from the friendly staff and charming, classic rooms to the delicious breakfast. I especially loved taking walks along the seaside, passing right by the golf course. Located close to Edinburgh, it is a place I highly recommend for a relaxing getaway.

Cons:

As travelers from Korea, we lacked sufficient information. When we arrived in North Berwick from Edinburgh, we had no way to get to our hotel, so we had to walk while dragging our luggage. It would have been great if there had been a transport service from the station to the hotel.

Schöne Atmosphäre. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt überhaupt nicht.
Pros:

Die Viktorianische Atmosphäre der Hotel Lobby ist beeindruckend, genauso wie die Lage direkt am Meer und einem Golfplatz

Cons:

Beim Checkin wird zuallererst die Bezahlung verlangt, immerhin über 500 € pro Nacht. Ich hatte einen Deluxe Room gebucht, da erwartet man dann natürlich einiges. Meine Enttäuschung war groß. Das Zimmer lag zwar zur Meer Seite hin, das Fenster war allerdings ungefähr so groß wie das in einem Kloster. Überhaupt war der Raum eher eng. Das warme Wasser funktionierte nur ab und zu. Interessant war das Fehlen einer Klobürste. Als ist das monierte, wurde mir geantwortet, dass für die Reinigung der Toiletten des Personal verantwortlich sei. Diese Art von Snobismus finde ich das schon sehr erstaunlich. Es gab ein Hallenbad und eine Sauna, die nicht so richtig heiß war. In den Toiletten stank, ist nach Urin.

Beautiful calm and connected to nature trip.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

It’s a bit old and the bathroom is outdated. The smell in the room of old carpets . The cleaners spray some terribly strong toilet freshener on the carpet to delete the smell but it was even more awful.
