Room was good. Hotel needs some updating ( carpets, windows, furniture) and walls could use a fresh coat of paint. Some pictures on the walls would have been good too. Bathroom was updated and the bed was comfortable. Great view over the coast.

Great breakfast, very friendly staff, very clean room. The only 2 things I would say that could improve: there was no flat sheet, and being summer time, the room was warm and too hot to sleep with the duvet, so a flat sheet was needed. The room could use some updating, toilet flush only worked after pressing several times. The window was really old and hard to open and close. Good pillows, good towels. And again, the best staff. Slightly pricey for the room you get.

This hotel is old fashioned in a beautiful building on the edge of the coastline. Get a sea view it is worth it. My solo room was a good size, the breakfast was in a lovely sea view dining room, the staff were extremely lovely and helpful. The bathroom needs updating but was spotlessly clean.

Stayed here to be close to a wedding venue, liked the location , looking out to the sea, the building looks lovely from the outside but sadly it’s in need of some updating, it’s a bit unloved looking, decor is tired, the rooms are basic, beds are hard, lighting not up to much, chipped paint everywhere really, for £169 a night it didn’t cut it. Room had kettle and nice teas and coffees, with shortbread biscuits. Toiletries were stunning and the bathroom is fairly modern , windows need a lot of restoring , chipped and old looking paint. This could be such a treasure if some money was spent on decor updates. Breakfast is good and filling.

Recuperative break after surgery

This was the perfect break to recuperate from major surgery and before starting chemotherapy. The seaview from my room was outstanding with views of the castle, sandstone rock formations and a tidal pool where brave women swam. There were equally amazing views from the public lounge and restaurant. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast choice was excellent with healthy options as well as full cooked Scottish breakfast. Dunbar is a charming town with a working harbour, small independent shops and cafés and 2 small museums. The John Muir museum is highly recommended which covers the life of John Muir from his childhood in Dunbar to moving to the USA and being instrumental in setting up National Parks. There are lovely cliff and beach walks along the John Muir Way which also passes through interesting geological areas. The only disappointment was despite all the lobsters being caught, no local restaurant/stalls served lobster!
