Station Hotel Portsoy  

The hotel is still undergoing some refurbishment to their bedrooms but this did not interfere with my stay. They were very relaxed and accommodating about my dog who was welcome everywhere except the dining room. The room I had still needed modernising but I think this was reflected in the price. Service was generally good and very friendly from all the paid staff but I was disappointed not to be even asked by the owner, when I was checking out, if I had enjoyed my stay. Dinner in the restaurant was of a very high calibre, using local produce where possible, and fairly innovative. Some aspects of presentation were a little basic, e.g. no shell cracker for my langoustines and no bowl for the shells but this did not detract from the excellent flavour. Would I return to this hotel? Given the constructive criticism here being acted upon I wouldn't hesitate. The location was excellent for exploring the whole of the Moray coast.

The bar was very basic and not conducive to guests relaxing in it. Better use could also be made of the lounge for sitting having a drink or a coffee.

Very well appointed obviously recently re-furbished and very tasteful bedrooms and a good size. The food was very good and a good choice of menu well served. The staff were very pleasant and helpful would certainly stay there again.

We received a very friendly welcome at the reception and the bar. Excellent meals for both evening and breakfast. Thankyou

Greeat food, large portions!! Lovely rooms amd friendly staff.

The Station Hotel Portsoy is a very friendly, family run, small hotel. We stayed in their suite, which consisted of was two very nicely appointed bedrooms (1 double, 1 twin) with a small hallway area between and a bathroom (which had a shower, no bath). I would definitely recommend this room to family groups as its a similar cost to a regular room but having two bedrooms gives a lot more flexibility. As we have 3 small children we put the two oldest in the twin bedroom and had the baby with us (the hotel helpfully provided a cot, saving us valuable boot space in the car). The hotel were very flexible about our breakfast time, and service in the restaurant was excellent. Facilities outside the hotel are quite limited, but its not far to the larger towns like Buckie, Banff and Macduff (which has a great aquarium for kids).

Wifi was provided in the reception area but in the rooms would be much more helpful, perhaps that can be considered?

Very friendly comfortable hotel Excel ant food although restaurant closed at 8pm A bit earley I thought and no where else to eat locally

Fantastic food, excellent welcome and lovely room.

Member of staff in bar area not very pleasant, went to Shore Inn for the evening.

A superb stay. From the minute I arrived the staff were the friendliest I have met for years. Arriving late the kitchen was closed but the Chef made superb sandwiches. Bar great fun and service excellent. Food was superb! All in all a very enjoyable two day stay on business.

CAnt think of anything to dislike about the hotel.

Very friendly staff, good food and comfortable room. All you need for a pleasant stay.

Friendliness. The food was good. It was really good to see a mens prayer breakfast on Saturday morning. A positive experience.

The location, the warm staff and very nice surroundings.

Lovely warm welcome and the staff made us feel incredibly comfortable, also were brilliant with the Kids. Breakfast was traditional Scottish and delicious. Staff were flexible on time too. Thank you!! We ate in on one evening and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality. Particularly the Fish!!
