I have been fortunate enough to stay at the ship on a couple of occasions in the las month. Both times I had booked harbour views [3 & 9]. I must say both rooms were of a high standard and the views of the harbour were outstanding. Downstairs you can enjoy a quiet drink in the refurbished bar and the... More

This is my first stay at the ship and 5th trip to Stonehaven from the US. The ship will be the place of my future stays to Stonehaven which I do twice a year. The room was clean, serviced well, the resturant is excellent and the proximity to town and the castle for walks is ecellent. It does not get... More

Our 2nd visit here in the last two months. Two of our party had steaks and they arrived with no chips or potatoes, (was this an over-sight?) just onion rings, tomato & mushrooms. For nearly £18, some veg & chips would have been nice. No bread on table and nearly £18 for plate of mussels & crab claws, yet again... More

I stayed here at the tail-end of last year. Stonehaven harbour is picturesque and with the Ship Inn on the edge of it, there is no better play to stay. The room was more than adequate, nicely decorated, and a clean bathroom. No objections. The bar/ pub is good, with a range of ales and plenty of whisky. More

My husband and I were looking for a quiet picturesque place to spend a couple of days after three days of business meetings in Aberdeen. We truly found what we were looking for in Stonehaven at The Ship Inn. It was easy to get to from Aberdeen by train and the day was so nice when we arrived, that we... More

Nice Place for a drink & a bite to eat. We ate here once in the bar area & the food was really nice. Good place for a drink & a bit of banter as this is the preferred option for the locals in the harbour. When we were there the bar was due to close for 3 weeks for... More

The Ship is a lovely hotel, with great food, in a gorgeous location. What more can you ask for at the end of a long day. The guest beers are also good and the staff pleasant and helpful This is the sort of thing which will make me book again. More

I don't think you can do much better in Stonehaven than the Ship Inn : outstanding location, well run, nice bar and great food. My only gripe is that the rooms are too full of the wrong type of furniture and so can feel unnecessarily cramped. Fresh orange juice at breakfast would be nice too. More
