Excellent hotel, very clean. Rooms had plenty of space for two adults and two children, lacking slightly on the clothes storage. Air conditioning could have worked better in our room as well as the restaurant as some nights were very warm.
Plenty of choice for food, always found something for the children to eat and if all else fails there was always chips.
Staff very friendly and helpful, tipping the pool staff helped to reserve your sunbeds.

What can I say about this hotel,in my view this is without a doubt the best hotel in Golden Sands.
Staff where always friendly and helpful.Food was good for a hotel but to be honest with the amount of good resturants in GS we only ate evening meal a few times.Breakfast was very good,lots of choice and different things for our two kids,pancakes,cereal,juice,toast that sort of thing.
The pool area was immaculate,there is two pools one for the wee ones and an ordinary one.
Plenty of sunbeds,reserving them is against the hotel rules,but people do it anyway so we figured if you can`t beat them join them.
The poolside cafe is a great place for lunch,great toasties.You have to try the family pizza some night as well,not joking it was the size of a dustbin lid and absolutely gorgeous.
Entertainment was a singer followed by some Bulgarian dancing.The kids loved it and it was a different dance most nights and they did try and get the audience involved.What they lacked in talent(which was plenty to be honest)they more than made up in enthuasim.
All in all we had a fabulous time at the Marina Grand Beach Hotel and we would definately go back if for nothing else other than a cappucino in the mezzanine bar.

The hotel was very clean and tidy. Staff were very friendly, apart from the annoying entertainment team who go around the pool numerous times each day trying to get people to take part in their games which included egg and spoon races and darts! Other than this and the disco in the hotel there didn't appear to be much else in the way of hotel entertainment.
We found the hotel food to be very basic, bland and often semi cold so we generally ate out.
Be warned that the pool isnt very big compared to the number who stay in the hotel and you need to be up early to secure your sunlounger!
Despite all the above, the hotel is right on the beach front in a great location close to all the nightlife yet not in the middle of all the noise!

This is an excellent hotel,the rooms are large, the bathrooms well equipped and spacious, the views from the sea view rooms are fantastic. The hotel was a joy to be in from check in to check out. I would definitely stay here again.

The Grand Marina is an excellent hotel. We were full board but ate out most nights because of the sheer choice of restaurants (and prefer served food rather than buffet - personal choice).
We had a sea view room which has glorious views accross the black sea.
The Sky bar is on the roof at the ront of the hotel and is fantastic. It has a telescope to view the stars or the surrounding scenery.
The rooms are spotless and the staff very efficient and friendly.
The pool gets very busy with all the sunbeds being taken by 9am. The pool staff do try their hardest to find you spaces though.
The health spa is ecxellent and very cheap.
My only critisism is the Karaoke bar opposite on the seafront is vey loud until approx 2am.
In summary a good choice if you want to be in the heart of the resort in a top quality hotel but be prepared for the music from the surrrounding bars at night.

Hello everyone, we have just come back from Alcatraz, although only just escaped. What can I say about this hotel? Well ok, but... Hotel staff were rude, like prison officers, pool area not too good, although one good thing was that the area which the hotel was situated in was grand.
Entertainment was below average, and we found ourselves eating out every night as food was not good.
Hotel staff were quite friendly, but watch out for jaws, he can bite.
Never saw the rep, and all I can say is we are not returning.
