Just attended our nieces wedding held in this hotel and found the experience very enjoyable,smooth running from check in through to the ceremony and evening reception. All controlled by Jason Young who had his staff working inconspicuously but attentive, nothing was any trouble to them. Room was excellent, gardens were perfect for photos, food could not be faulted.

I have been staying in the Buchan Braes for several years and although the title of 'Best Hotel in Peterhead' isn't a hallowed title, I do enjoy staying here. It must be said however that standards are slipping, I was not pleased with the local youths using the path outside my room as a skate park, the latest room I... More

We went to Buchan Braes for lunch last Saturday. As we hadn't been there before it was such a lovely surprise to find such sophisticated surroundings with beautiful food. We only had a main course but the home made burgers with home made chips were gorgeous. The staff were attentive yet discreet and nothing was too much trouble (obviously they... More

Everything was pretty good, so I can't complain. The price was a little steep. That's the rub. It's too costly for Peterhead, but the quality was solid. More

Smallish rooms but fully equipped and pleasantly quiet - comfortable bed! Good menu available in both restaurant and bar. As its also popular with the locals be prepared to book a table, particularly Sat night and Sunday lunch. Staff very helpful and friendly. More

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

Visited here with my family over the Christmas period. Didn't stay there but hung out in the lounge area for a couple of hours. It is nicely and comfortably furnished. We spent some time catching up on email etc using their free Wifi. We had a meal in the lounge with some coffee and drinks. The whole family enjoyed their... 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

The food is of an excellent standard although the price & that of the drink is high. The staff are excellent & very proffessional. The rooms are well decorated & there is plenty of... More
