The quality of food and choice was in my opinion spoiled by the poor service. The waiting staff would benefit from additional training. To seat us at the table while they were still in the process of cleaning the table was not a great start. They leaned across the table while serving dishes, never checked if we needed further drinks... More

We stayed at this beachfront hotel with wonderful views and a very comfortable bedroom but were disapointed with the breakfast.. The web site advertises full Scottish breakfast, but although the breakfast was good it was an English Breakfast - No Haggis or Lorne. The toast was very thin toastie bread and tasted like card. The staff are very friendly, but... More

Stonhaven is quite a low key attraction on the Aberdeen coast: while its harbor is charming, the rest of town is nondescript at best (nearby Dunnottar castle is, of course, stunning): I had therefore some troubles explaining to my wife why we travelled two hours from Edinburgh to stay there; that is, until she saw the hotel and the room....

booked an overnight stay online for anniversary. Forgot to book a table for dinner. When we checked in and enquired about eating there we were informed we should have booked as they were very busy but if we wished to eat early (5.30) then they could accomodate us if they could have the table back for 7.30. We were shown... More

We stayed at the Ship for a couple of nights, on a break from Edinburgh. After the 1 mile downhill walk from the station, we appreciated the fact that it sells 2 well kept real ales. We had chosen one of the refurbished rooms in the extension, up a steep staircase above the restaurant. The room has been done out... More

20 mins drive from Aberdeen so a reasonably priced alternative to the extortionate prices of the city centre hotels. The hotel itself is situated right on the harbour with views out over the North Sea. The bar and restaurant both looked clean and welcoming although I did not have a chance to use either of these facilities. Room was modern... More

Company I work with put me up in this Hotel for work in the area. No complaints about Hotel, Room I had overlooked the harbour, Food was good value for money & portions were adequate, sometimes had eyes bigger than my stomach ha ha. Decor in room was modern & free wi-fi as well. Would definately use again either for... More

The Ship Inn in Stonehaven is about 20 - 30 mins from Aberdeen, Clean and friendly accommodation. Breakfast very good but dinner in the restaurant was amazing. Would definitely recommend to anyone and would definitely go back if in the area again.

We had 3 nice nights in the Ship Inn in Stonehaven. The room is comfortable, and the food is very good. But the bathroom was not very clean (but very nice!) and the price is to high (we paid less for a sensible better place in the center of Edinburgh! And the reception is very impersonal, they don't show much... More
