Stayed here for 5 nights and it's a great hotel in a bleak corner of Scotland. Rooms are superbly comfy and quiet. The showers are excellent and modern. Meals are but pricey but it's a long walk in to town! More

Great hotel, and not the impression you get from the outside but how looks can be deceiving. The check in was as smooth as can be and the lady at reception had a great smile and was so pleased to help. The rooms were a delight and everything one would expect from a four star hotel, if not more. A... More

From outside this hotel doesnt look much - however the interior is modern and stylish without being "cold". Took and elderly friend for dinner - staff very helpful - good service and excellent food. Would certainly return if in the area again. More

My wife and I attended at this hotel having seen it advertised. It is about 2 miles from Peterhead where we were attending a function. The hotel to some may now look much from outside but the exterior is very clean. The inside is fantastic as was our room, it was well decorated and very clean. All the staff were... More
