Riverside Lodge Hotel

Riverside Lodge Hotel

8/10 Good
"Bed was nice and comfy, good tea and coffee selection & towels super fluffy. I had fish and chips for my evening meal and it was delicious!. My room was spacious but a little Tierd & dated compared to some other hotels I have stayed at. All in all I had a good sleep in a clean comfortable bed. I would recommend riverside lodge for an overnight stay or a short break."

Marine Troon

Marine Troon

10/10 Excellent
"I cannot say enough, about how wonderful marine Troon is. For starters, It is a pitching wedge away from Royal Troon golf club for the golfers in the crowd. The course literally passes within 50 feet of Marine Troon! The pool, hot tub steam, and sauna are lovely after a round! But, what makes Marine Troon truly outstanding is the helpfulness, courtesy, professionalism, and kindness of the staff! From the moment I walked in, Gary, Cameron, Grant, June, Nancy, Ethan — too many people to mention are fantastic! Strongly, recommend marine Troon when you find yourself in the area. And they make some delicious cocktails. Notably – the food was outstanding"
