A view you'll fall in love with

Pros: Stunning, incredible view (strongly recommend getting sea view room). The room was comfortable and clean with the basic amenities that you might need. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Free parking in front of hotel. The food was incredible - particularly any of the haggis dishes. Try and have at least one meal at the hotel!

Cons: The bathrooms in the rooms are converted cupboards that are incredibly small - manageable but not ideal. Be aware that if you do book a seaview room, try to get room 1 instead of room 5. 5 is much smaller for the same price. Sound proofing could also be better; you can hear other guest's TVs and snoring!

Lovely, friendly base for a short stay

Pros: Wonderful location. I was in a house/block outside the main building it was great to also have access straight into the street without having to go throughtvthe main hotel. There was also a conservatory which was great as we had two rooms, so there was a shared communal space. Very friendly, staff and guests.

Cons: We went between Christmas cans new year, it was a little bit cold at first. Also we arrived very late and the restaurant vhad just closed, also the other places in the village chad just closed. Made up for if with a good breakfast the next day. For us it was a long drive to get there but well worth it, even if we did miss dinner the first night

A Guid New Year's stay at the Waterfront Hotel

Pros: The location was excellent, just a couple of minutes from the water to see the great views. The room was great, the bed comfortable and we had a good sleep each night. The shower was great and everything was very clean.

Cons: The biggest issue was that we had to go back home! :-) No problems at all, everything went well.
