The hotel was clean and quiet. Quite a retro decor, but does the job. Breakfast was fine with plenty of it. The staff was very helpful and polite. Maybe a bit overpriced for what it is... especially when you encounter beetles in your bathroom. The charging for the Wifi is a total joke - £12.5 a day!!! More

We have just spent a very enjoyable three night Easter break at this hotel. We had booked before reading the comments on this site and it was with some concern that we made the trip to Peterhead. On arriving at the hotel we were met with a very pleasant and professional receptionist. The room was a bit "tired" but clean... More

Very disappointed in the standard of the meal. Fish was dumped on top of lemon and the salad, Was it the junior in the kitchen plating up or the chef. Waitress staff did not know what meal had to be delivered to what table, shall not be back. More

Excellent meals served by friendly and professional staff. The Saturday roast dinner is always very good value for money. Pool and spa are an added bonus although the young man on the reception was rather surly. A local member did say that this was his normal manner towards spa users - not best suited to dealing with guests. All other... More

Arrived at just before 2100 and had to ring from my taxi to pre-order an evening meal. This is a tired worn out hotel that has seen better days. Decor and staff reflect this. What can I say. More
