Room was great with amazing views. Friendly and lovely staff.. Great location. Also, high compliments for the food we had there. We thought the main bedding could be better with a bit more blackout curtain/blinds as the ambient lights outside were on for a longer period at night - these are some feedback for the sake of it. Will be going back for sure.

The hotel was very comfortable and I enjoyed my stay, staff were welcoming and friendly, lovely room and good food.
We stayed as a stop in our journey to Aberdeen. We didn't eat there so can't comment on food but all other aspects of our stay were fine. We would defiantly stay with them again.
Clean and confortable, very good value including dinner and especially breakfast. Staff welcoming and attentive. A special mention to the person who seemed to be making it all happen, Ionella who's attention to detail and guests was amazing.
