Everything here was great. The only slightly negative thing was that the room was BLAZING HOT when we arrived. The curtains were fully drawn and midday-afternoon sun had heated the room to sauna temps. Only one of the three windows opened about five inches so it took until morning for it to become a bearable temperature. Otherwise, everything was clean… updated, well maintained, and fresh. They had even made up the sofa bed for our son. We were able to check in about an hour early after 15+ hours of travel which was unexpected. Thanks to the staff at Orocco Pier for making our stay enjoyable.

Not happy!

After paying £150 for a room with a sea view. On arrival we were told we were giving a room with a balcony. We were happy to hear this but once we entered the room it was so so small and very claustrophobic! The bed was extremely small. My partner is 8 months pregnant, there was barely any room to swing a cat so I went to reception and ask if we could move room, we have already checked online and we knew there was rooms empty. To this we were told we would have to pay £35 extra to upgrade to a bigger room, we had no option other than to do it because it was no possible to stay in the room we had been provided with. I think the customer service was really poor in this case, they could have done better to help accommodate a heavily pregnant lady. Word of warning if booking, ask not to be given the room with the balcony. Even when we did move the bed was very uncomfortable, the mattress was far too soft and could feel springs and some sort of board down the middle. I wouldn’t say here again.

Brilliant stay at an iconic location

We know Orocco Pier well but had never stayed over. The bar was busy with a friendly vibe, food delicious and staff were great. Our bedroom was large with 3 windows facing the Forth and Forth Railbridge. Bed very comfortable which isn’t often the case in hotels!
