The staff were very welcoming and the room was comfortable and spotlessly clean. The real treat were the meals. Breakfast was outstanding with options for all and two special Scottish choices. Dinner in the restaurant was also excellent with generous helpings and value. NJ

    Slightly biased as it was the town were I was born so I was not a complete stranger to the town. Had only passed through over the past 50 years. It is a nice town, adequate shops and catering options for a short stay. There are several hotels and I imagine they have restaurants and lounge bars, the Station Hotel definitely has. There are several walks around the area - I picked up a leaflet showing these. There is a nice picnic and parking area down by the river Ythan. There is a cycling/walking path along what used to be a railway line which is ideal for getting to some local villages. The bus service from Aberdeen is perfectly adequate and there is also a park and ride scheme and retail park on the outskirts of the town. Ellon is ideally situated for visiting other towns and villages in the area. I was visiting family so did not have much change to sightsee.

    A town that has continue to grow over the years both physically and with the amount of amenities needed by locals and travellers alike. A great place to base yourself for exploring the North East of Scotland

    I flew to Ellon via Aberdeen for a funeral and did not look around Ellon. Because of the lack of flights I had to stay 2 nights at The Buchan and on the second day my room and towels and bed etc were left unattended. I got back to the hotel around 9 pm and everywhere was locked up and no staff found.

    Ellon is a lovely town on the banks of the river Ythan with an array of excellent cafes and restaurants. If you have a car it is an ideal base for exploring Aberdeenshires wonderful coastal beaches including Collieston, Cruden Bay, Newborough. There is excellent golf in the area too as well as historic castles and houses: Haddo House, Castle Fraser and Fyvie nearby.

    Ellon has a few nice wee shops, is on a river with lovely walks, the Brewdog brewery and bar are just a mile out of town, has an Aldi and a Tesco and is just 5 miles from the sea at Newburgh (gorgeous beach walks and look at seals) It is a great base for touring the area - we visited Inverurie, Portsoy (just over an hour away), Cullen and Portknockie. Also climbed Mither Tap in the Bennachie range on a glorious day. Not long to travel to Peterhead (visited the prison museum - great!) Lots of castles in the area but unable to visit due to Coronavirus. Did go to Slains near Cruden Bay though (ruin) which was fascinating. Just need to come back for the others!! Restaurants - food at the New Inn Hotel is superb. Also visited The View (appropriately named) at Newburgh. People in town all friendly and helpful. Ellon a great wee place....

    Good location, feels like you’re in the outskirts but a short walk across the bridge and you are in the centre of town. Restaurants, shops and bars are almost on the doorstep. The house is very comfortable and extremely well equipped with just about everything one could need. We would definitely return as Ellon is a lovely town and very well placed within Aberdeenshire making exploring the area easy. The host had left us full instructions about the property which made for a very pleasant stay.

    It’s such a lovely hotel and really friendly staff. The room was so comfy and I love the little table and extra chair and the peach smelling bathroom. It’s right across from the river you can stroll along and close by to the town amenities. It has a bar and function rooms which is great, even though we didn’t use them, we had a great nights sleep, couldn’t hear a peep!

    Very good value for money - staff excellent and the breakfast was all you could ask for - one little thing is that Room 9 is a little small and the shower needs fixing as water kept going on off on off - reported it to the hotel so hope it gets fixed otherwise no complaints

    I would say this is an upper end 3star hotel. There ate a lot of facilities such as spa , swimming pool and sauna. Plenty of space and entertainment over the whole weekend not just the tribute night. can’t fault the staff as nothing was too much bother.

    We couldn't fault the hotel. The bedroom was first class, the location for us was perfect with the beach only a few minutes walk away. The food was excellent as was the dining area. We will definitely be using this hotel when in the area again.

    This property truly provides superior lodging. I stayed in several nice hotels in Scotland on this trip, and The New Inn stood out as the best. The common areas and room were spotless. Staff was friendly and helpful.
