The Forth View hotel is a very nice place to stay if you want to visit Edinburgh. The Trainstation of Aberdour is nearby and in about half an hour you are in the center of Edinburgh. The hotel has nice rooms and a great view to the Forth and Edinburgh. There is a lot of space for children even outside... More

The hotel was not the hotel standard I'm used to because I was freezing through my entire stay, due to a lack of adequate heating except in the dining room. Also, because I had taken the last room, at my own request, not knowing it had no T.V. , I had no "entertainment" except my newspaper, which I read from... More

Thanks for taking time to review and we apologise for your experience. As seen from previous reviews we aim for the highest of standards. On this occasion: This gentleman booked the room knowing that it was our most basic room that we normally only let as part of a Family unit, (the other half of the unit is ensuite with... More

Wonderful staff and great room. Breakfast is excellent and you can also have smoked haddock, which my 10-year-old daughter enjoyed. Room was clean, neat, warm, and the en suite was not cramped. Walking distance to all things Aberdour. Beach, castle, pitch, pubs, wharf, and train. Hostess collected and dropped us at the station. Very knowledgeable staff has plenty of information... More

I have eaten here before and always found food and service wonderful and today was no exception! As it was a beautiful day we were able to eat outside in the lovely garden with breathtaking views across the River Forth. Our meal was cooked to absolute perfection and as someone who eats regularly in hotels around Scotland I can honestly... More

We were staying at Forth View last week in a family room and really enjoyed the wonderful view and natural scenic beauty. The atmosphere is very calm and relaxing. Overall, the hotel service is excellent and the food is great!

We stayed for several nights and would highly recommend the Forth View hotel. We loved the out of the way location; it's situated along the Fife Coastal Path, just a short walk or drive from the village of Aberdour. It was easy to walk to the village and then take the 30 minute train ride into Edinburgh Waverley, without having... More

My husband and I booked to stay here for one night as we had heard good things about the hotel and its seafood restaurant, A Room with a View. When I called to book the hotel was closed for the season but they keep a room open for people wishing to eat in the resturant. That was perfect. We asked... More
