Incredible location, golf course and property - underwhelming service.

The Hotel is marvelous and the Golf course absolutely pristine. But please do not come hungry between lunch and dinner service in the restaurant. Even though the hotel facilities menu states that there is room service available from 9am - 10pm. It does NOT exist. You cannot even get a sandwich between 3pm & 6pm. Nothing! Nada. They do not even answer the phones. Quite disappointing seeing that this is a supposed 4-star facility.

Front desk staff could have been much more helpful and informative.

Very good

nice place, nice food, stunning surroundings

we booked the Islay Room. in general, the room is spacious and nice. however, the location is nearby the parking lot and you can hear moving cars and people talking. as such, we would have preferred to have a more quiet room.

Lovely location, comfortable accommodation but we felt we weren't that welcome here.

The location is superb, wonderful views and walks along the vast beach. The accommodation was clean and comfortable with a fantastic bathroom. The room was a tad small and we had to keep our cases in the middle of the room but we had a great view across the golf course to the sea with stunning sunsets.

Despite The Machrie's claims on its website that all guests will receive a warm welcome, that was not our experience. All the "lads" we encountered on reception (apart from Juan Carlos) were not particularly engaging, didn't make eye contact and didn't come back to us when they said they would. The Machrie has that air of the old-fashioned golf club; if felt cliquey, and some of the restaurant managers seemed to find it difficult to even acknowledge us. We felt uncomfortable.

wanted a special luxury experience for a special occasion but left underwhelmed.

stunning location

expensive rooms that didn’t live up to expectations and limited food choices that were extremely overpriced and left us all still hungry. our bed was small for two people when the other friends we were staying with got huge beds for one person. our shower flooded the bathroom every time.

Wonderful hotel with grand sitting areas, delicious dinner and drinks and expansive views of the Scottish coast. Not a golfer, but wish I was after seeing that beautiful course.

Beautiful hotel, shame about the service - unless you want to experience Fawlty Towers for yourself.

The property is stunning - you just cannot fault the setting. There is tasteful artwork throughout and the rooms and lounges are appointed beautifully. The food was outstanding.

There are several concerning aspects. I had arranged with the hotel by email to collect us from the airport. After waiting 20 minutes, we decided to walk there - no mention was ever made of their forgetting to come. The staff were very friendly, however it soon became apparent that almost all of them were agency workers over for a short term (one of the girls was there for a week and then being taken back to Edinburgh). That’s usually OK, but what it meant was that the service was Fawlty Towers-esque. They forgot to offer us dessert one day, forgot to bring over bread the next. One day, oysters were 3 for £12, the following day 2 for £12. One day, one of us had the Monkfish starter (two nice looking pieces of Monkfish tail in a lovely sauce), so the following day I thought that I would try it. About ten minutes after ordering, one of the less subtle bar staff was shouting about Monkfish being all out - five minutes later our two starters arrived as a half portion each, but charged at full money (£14 each). It was only when the bill came that we challenged them, and they removed it from the bill - but why on earth would you try to get away with this when someone’s spent over £2k on three nights in the hotel? On the last morning, we went for a cup of tea in the Stag Lounge (a lovely room overlooking the golf course). We got charged £10 for one pot of tea and three cups. Stupid stuff like this just leaves a bitter taste and a feeling that you’ve been totally ripped off, which is such a shame as the hotel is beautiful and all the staff were very friendly - just not very good. Interestingly, I stayed in the Islay Hotel before which was nowhere near as luxurious, but just as comfortable, far cheaper and the staff always did what they said they were going to do. Almost every single Islander who asked where we were staying this time, upon discovering we were staying at The Machrie, all said the same thing: “Beautiful hotel, shame about the service”.
