Buchan Hotel

Friendly helping staff much nicer room this time than last stay. Good parking and breakfast

The dinner menu was good and the food presented well. Superb choice of vegetables.

We stayed here for 2 nights with our friends. Room was lovely and clean and staff were very good. Breakfast in the morning might have been the best hotel breakfast I’ve had yet. The rooms are quite dated and very warm and quite noisy if you’re staying the side where the bar is. Otherwise very pleasant. Car park is handy too.

Well, I would describe The Buchan Hotel as nearly, but not quite, Premier inn standard. This is my second stay here and I really have no complaints. The whole place, rooms, corridors, lobby, restaurant and toilets are spotless; one of the cleanest hotels I have stayed in! The full breakfast is outstanding and evening meals even better. The service is on-point, the staff are all very friendly and helpful. It’s a proper family run establishment and they take an active role in running this gem of a hotel. I am up in Ellon for work but would happily stay here on holiday. The location is great, right next to the river and in easy walking distance of the amenities. Did I mention the large free car park?; that’s a bonus. All-in-all, be it accommodation or popping by for a meal, I can definitely recommend The Buchan Hotel. For sure, If I’m back for work I will be booking in here; Well done Neil & the team.

Mixed feelings about this traditional country hotel. Staff were amazing, friendly and efficient. Dinner was great, good quality, good menu. Breakfast that was included in the rate was generous, well cooked and reasonable quality for price. The rooms though!!!!!....very clean with spotless linen but are in need of some updating. Dingy, no pictures, no plug beside bed to charge phone, cold water tap on sink didn't work until suddenly came gushing out late morning, mirror light on the blink, couldn't get TV to work....but worst of all mattresses are terrible, soft and springey, terrible sleep. A few minor upgrades are all that are needed

AWFUL EXPERIENCE DON’T RECOMMEND Visited here but certainly won’t be back as it was diabolical. Food was poor quality and wasn’t hot. Service was terrible and staff were not very smartly dressed. This created not a very inviting environment so I don’t think I will be returning. I was hoping to book rooms for family as we have coming up for wedding but the experience we received during our visit has decided that WE WILL NOT BE ALLOWING FAMILY GUESTS TO STAY AT HOTEL. It was going to be 6 rooms for 4 nights. We will find somewhere else where we are happy with allowing family guests to stay.
