The Marine Hotel's traditional bar specialises in real Scottish and English ales and always has six hand pulls ready to serve CAMRA standard beer. We do not skimp on our international beers having some 100 bottle conditioned ales from around the world.
On tap we always have Deuchers IPA, Timothy Taylor Landlord and our own house ale 'Dunnottar' brewed for us by Inveralmond Brewery in Perth. In addition we have three guest ales featuring mainly Scottish micro breweries from the length and breadth of the country.

The bar has a welcoming atmosphere where folk of all walks of life gather to share in the pleasures of life. The adjacent lounge with seating for over 30 offers a more relaxed family atmosphere with open fire where meals are served daily.

The Marine Hotel has a new website. To mark the launch of the refurbished Marine Hote, Robert Lindsay the new landlord has commissioned a completely new website. A new look to the hotel and a totally new look to the site. We have created a new site based upon a content management system (CMS). This means that Robert can modify the site whenever he wants all by himself without needing the assistance of a pet web designer. The site is cheaper to update and it means that the site will change regularly and as a result will be far more interesting. We'll keep the information up to date and if you regularly come back we'll make sure there's always something up to date.LightQuick created the website for Robert Lindsay for both of his establishments, the Creel Inn and the Marine Hotel Stonehaven
