What SuperLadysally doesn't like about The Duke Of Marlborough:
Food drinks: What’s going on? Totally mediocre food. I had Snapper and chips. Peas were tasteless, dry and inedible. How hard is it to buy sweet baby peas. Fish was also flat tasting.

From England, for us, the Bay of Islands and particularly Russell, is one of our favourite places. The Duke of Marlborough sits firmly at the top of our list of favourite Hotels here.

A fabulous place, the menu superb, as was the quality of food and presentation.... View all feedback.
