6/10

Great location. The breakfast was very good. Rooms are small and dated. Parking is out front if it’s open. If it’s not open, park in the harbor parking until after 4pm, the spots out front open up from the day trippers. Walking distance to Dunnator Castle. Restaurant downstairs was good.

Lovely location overlooking the harbour. Very noisy room right above the bar with a lot of noise until midnight. I would stay in Stonehaven again but I wouldn't stay here which is a shame.

10/10

Located right on the harbour, and with a harbour view room was special. The pub itself is very busy, so book dinner if you wish to dine there. Dinner food was great and also the breakfast. There was some Pub noise outside on a Sat night, but not too late. Parking in free council carpark, or street if lucky was easy. Walk to Donnottar Castle out and back from village was excellent. 7 km return. You can also drive to Castle parking lot. Stonehaven was a lovely place to stay.

We had a pleasant one night stay and found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean but decor and furniture a little tired. Food was great - especially the breakfast which was included in the price. Would definitely stay again.

Great little Inn with an awesome view out of the front door. Walked to Dunnotaur castle, just an amazing coastal town. Restaurant was great at the hotel (mussels), and staff was very friendly just like all Scottish people we met. Would definitely stay there again.

I just loved this place. It’s right on the harbor so the views are amazing. The rooms are on the smaller side but they are extremely clean (we saw one of the housekeepers on her hands and knees scrubbing the shower) and comfortable. Amenities are a little dated but it didn’t affect our stay. Definitely make reservations for the restaurant. I had cullen skink there for the first time and it was so good. I dream about it!
