Our stay at the Seaview Hotel was very pleasant. Room was modern, spotless and the extra toiletries were appreciated. The restaurant was nicely decorated and the food was very good. Rain shower was wonderful. Jamie and the other staff were very welcoming and helpful. The Seaview is in a residential area so there are no other restaurants or shops close by.

Great stay
Very comfortable stay and amazing service. Big thanks to Jamie for helping me check in at a ridiculous arrival hour. Quick mention to the chef and staff in the restaurant, definitely one of the best steaks I've had in long time. And your beef bon bon was lush.

Excellent little hidden gem. Staff are great, food is wonderful and well priced and the rooms are of an excellent standard - immaculately clean. A really good all round experience. Nice sea view from the room.

First impressions were that the hotel looked a bit 'tired' - but please don't let that put you off! Once inside, the hotel is bright, fresh, clean. Our room had a modern bathroom/shower fitting. The hotel is obviously a place popular with locals coming for a meal or a function. Nice food. All of the staff were friendly, cheerful and helpful, giving us a couple of recommendations of places to visit according to our interests. I would say you will need a car, although there is a bus stop right outside, but certainly no bus on a Sunday. Would happily stay there again.

We were warmly welcomed into this property set right on the North Sea and had a beautiful room with a view. The staff was incredibly organized and friendly and the food and drinks were amazing. It was nice to get to know the staff who were full of historic information. It was a relaxing, laid back area along the beautiful rugged coastline. We even got to see the Puffins in their natural habitat!

Booked a partial sea view and did not get that. Got a miserable view. Room not well ventilated, no air conditioning and could not open the window. Breakfast for almost £17 wa a rip off. 1 sausage, 1 egg, 1 bacon. , juice was not fresh. Worse hotel I have stayed in. Not attentive to customer needs.

Response from Manager on 17 Feb 2023
So sorry you felt this way, but the room is as exactly it says on this site where you booked! And it does have a partial sea view? Furthermore you were stating with staff that your breakfast was included, which as you realised it wasn’t. Our breakfast includes, many options for you to choose from, the fact you omitted to exclude items is not really our doing. We are the furthest Eastern part of Scotland on the seafront in February, sorry but air con is definitely not required. You could have regulated your heating to a lower setting if you were too hot? For a well appointed room, we feel you got great value for money. As you can see by our other reviews, our guest really enjoy our hotel and their experience here. I am again sorry that you did not, perhaps next time you could include breakfast and upgrade to one of our rooms which has more extras and indeed wonderful Seaview

The hotel room it self felt modern but still comfortable. It Was very clean, and the housekeeping even turned on the towel warmer one night as a nice touch. The free coffee and the optical extra brekfast was very good and well done. Only gripe would be I wish you could chose certain food options for a lower cost, as I don’t think Oatmeal and Tea is worth £16… but I can see why the others would be. Best hotel on my trip in Scotland ❤️ The Desk Staff and restaurant servers were very friendly and were excellent. Felt very welcomed.

What an amazing place. The staff are lovely, helpful and friendly and the breakfast was awesome, I recommend adding it to your stay. I would be broad of the modern bathroom in my own home and the shower was super large and roomy. We also dined in the bistro which was also a delight. It was a great price too. I can’t recommend it enough and have booked again for next week!

Worth staying just for the food !
Fantastic room with large bathroom with shower and separate bath. Decor is modern and fresh throughout, lovely view of harbour! Bar is also modern and the food is some of the best I’ve had, especially the scollops and Stornaway black pudding starter! Rest of menus is equally as good !

How do we get back?
Stayed here on our last leg of cycling the north east 250. We were greeted warmly and made to feel immediately at home. Our room was spacious and beautifully presented. The bathroom was big and well stocked. We were lucky enough to get a table for dinner in the bistro which was busy. The food was fabulous. We need to find another reason to come and stay again. Superb.

The perfect stay
Absolutly brilliant stay, very clean, rooms to a very high standard. Rainfall shower was superb. Had a seaview and was great , nice sunrise and sunset. The service was beyond question with a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. They were extremely helpful and accomadating . The food was superb , we tried most of the menu with nothing but compliments. So.much so we never felt a need to find anywhere else. All the locals eat there for dinner so confirmation enough 😋 Prices are good to. Well done Seaview, this is how all hotels should be run. Perfect customer service Full and exceeded customer expectations.

L’hôtel est situé près d’un port tranquille. L’hôtel est très propre et avec toutes les commodités. Il y a possibilité de restauration Sur place . C’est un quartier de petites maisons près de l’eau , sans trop d’attraits , mais un bel hôtel
