The hotel at the bottom was beyond expectation considering the simple plain view at the top! Hahaha...the view from the hotel room - spectacular! sea front awesome, the caves, exploring the rocky beach....it was an awesome experience. Will definitely come back again.
The tv settings in room 9 need to be fixed to English, dusty iron, and cobwebs in corners. Breakfast options need to revised, continental breakfast needs to be re-thought and maybe go for an English breakfast? We had to constantly ask for cutlery, cups, and plates as there weren't enough for the people present. The white bread had mould and the staff member on duty didn't know where some of the stuff was stored in.

The location was great. looking out of the window of my room direct on to the sea was fantastic. Waking up to the sound of the waves was great, A walk on the beach before having a lovely breakfast. There is no phone signal or internet which made a difference, thought it would be strange but turned out to be vert refreshing.
As I was the only one in the hotel that night thought someone should have stayed just in case something happened to me especially as there is no phone connection but this was an unusual occurrence in speaking to the staff.

The setting …. I’ve been visiting the grotto for almost 50 years and remember when the rock had 2 parts I love the interior of the grotto ( I do think the exterior could do with a little love and care )
We stayed in room 1 Salty Kisses which we will definitely stay in again as it was my style to perfection …. Only thing that bothered me was the constant noise of doors banging … don’t know if it was coming from along the corridor or from underneath the spiral staircase and maybe was coming from the toilet doors ( maybe some soft closing hinges would solve this )

Absolutely, everything about this hotel was amazing. Scenery was stunning, and even the dolphins put on a show for us. Would definitely recommend. There were two ladies, both morning that we were there that were lovely. They are very hard workers and hope they are appreciated. Nothing was too much trouble, a real asset to the hotel. The food was also amazing.
If you get back after 22.00 the lift is closed, so you have to walk down over 130 steps, more lights would be good. Just glad I didn't have to walk up them😁 The bedroom was a bit on the small side, but the views we woke up to more than made up for it.

It was very qwerky. Been wanting to go here for a long time and I had the opportunity so I booked it. It didn’t disappoint. Well worth checking it out. Would highly recommend it.
The fact that you have to pay for the car park. Bit annoying when you are staying there. Also rooms were very warm could do with a fan as the seagulls are too noisy to open the top window in the room.

Lovely quirky hotel, clean and comfortable. A small light breakfast was available with coffee/tea and juices. Great sea view from our room. Staff very friendly and welcoming. We didn’t eat in the restaurant, however it did look lovely.
No signal or WiFi, which wasn’t an issue for us, I would imagine it would be for some people. Only thing really we were disappointed in, was the noise the cleaner made at around 7am banging

Location was outstanding, room was clean and comfortable, food was great. Staff wonderful, gave us a treat as it was our anniversary.
Exterior area needed to be cleaned, bins emptied etc. Breakfast was supposed to be continental, 4 cereals, bread for toast, or melon. We did have to ask for milk and there were no knives. When you pay over £200 a night you would expect better.

The cleaner Linda was reallly the only member of staff we seen she was so helpful and accommodating for us I actually thought she was management we did see staff on check in day A lot of them were stood talking amongst themselves and not doing a lot I think if it wasn’t for Linda this woul have been 1 star she is an asset to Marsden grotto
The lift closing at 10pm

Staff and the meal were absolutely amazing and the view was to die for as was the food. The food was served quickly and with a smile . The staff worked extremely hard. Throughout our stay and tips were well deserved
Not what was shown in the photos , we paid 270 on booking com for a cave room with a roll top bath both shown in the photos and in special requests we put birthday banners in room .we received a room with no cave walls and a shower not a bath ( our new house has no bath tub so this was a selling point for the hotel for me ) after the initial disappointment staff were amazing so saved the evening due to their hard work and happy attitude. Only recommendation is take your own mugs and tea coffe sugar and milk. The lift and bar closes at 10 pm and reopens at 10 am so can run out of the sachets fast.

Stayed with hubby and another couple, from pulling up in the car park you can’t help but love the place.Wow what a setting. We were welcomed by the manager, who was very informative,helpful, friendly and a genuine lovely person. We checked into our room , it was very clean and modern and it had the best ever view of the beach and the sea. We booked a table for dinner where we ordered fish and chips, they were gorgeous. We were looked after by all the staff so well, and can’t remember ever being treated like this before. I honestly can’t rate this place enough.We will definitely be back.
We loved everything.The was no internet in the hotel which some people may not like,but I thought I was great that we didn’t have the option to stare at phones all night
