Nothing is quite right
The Marine Hotel is shabby under it's current dressing of scaffolding. It's unclear if the place is undergoing refurbishment or just having its roof fixed. Everything is just not quite right or just half done.
Out toom was ok, one of the better according to other guests we talked to. Basic but modern furnishings give it a smart feel. However. half the room had had a coat of paint but the other walls were covered in scuffs. It has a newish looking carpet, but this was covered in some nasty stains, it was clear there was a large liquid spill near the room door. We didn't want to know what kind, staff's only answer was they'd let maintenance know to replace the carpet. The bathroom had new flooring, shower and sink etc but the shower cubicle had black algae in the corners, and the bathroom window was cracked. Even the in room coffee facilities were off. New kettle, well stocked but with two different size cups
The room had a lovely view of the pool plant room and very patchy wifi.
The pool, which looked quite pleasant, smelled not quite right and had a scum layer floating on top. This was in the basement which is badly dilapidated, and there were no changing facilities available at the time of this review.
The hotel has scaffolding for roof repairs and the staff told us refurbishments were under way, but it's unclear what part of the hotel is being refurbished. It looks like every area has been updated just enough to be presentable, but not to be of any decent standard. The corridor to our room was reminiscent of a dodgy bedsit. Damp visible above the door, doors with holes where old locks were fitted, and crumbling paint and plaster around the wall sockets. The entrance to our corridor was decorated with a dusty plastic bay tree, in a pot filled with foam and a dusty bin liner.
We came on a Shearing's Holiday, and food was included. We elected to eat elsewhere as the food was so poor. Even the bar food was a massive step up in quality. Room service was patchy, though staff were generally friendly and helpful.
If you're looking for somewhere pleasant to stay and enjoy your visit to Llandudno, choose a different hotel.
I'm not a particularly fussy person. I'm happy in a budget hotel as long as it's clean, well maintained and the food is decent. This hotel is none of those.
