“The sea views are certainly a high point, especially from the restaurant where the breakfast is generous and includes barista-style coffee; plus the staff goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed. It's a convenient spot for exploring the Aberdeenshire coast and the Cairngorms, with the benefit of an engaging bar scene right in the hotel. I think it is a solid base for a visit.”

Charming Seaside Escape
sea viewsofabreakfast itemsquality service
My double sea view room was well-equipped with a comfortable sofa and a useful table. The blackout curtains worked very well, helping me to sleep soundly (which I needed!). Breakfast included many hot items of high quality. The staff provided excellent service making the experience all the more precious.
My bathroom could have used another radiator, as it felt a little chilly.
