Stonehaven Stonehaven Outdoor Pool Hotels

"The Granite city is beautiful, the Chester hotel is clean, professionally managed, and the cut above the rest."

"Ardoe house has a lot of character. Entry seemed tired and due for refresh, but the Prestige room we booked was modern and well equipped. The grounds are superb, and very relaxing. We would stay again. "

"John was so helpful. He made everything easy. I am very grateful. "

"A very professional run hotel, staff exceptionally accommodating, good menu choice, and central to the city. My one concern is the number of car parking spaces are very inadequate for the number of rooms the hotel has."

"Breakfast - provide a hot flask of coffee on the buffet table so that guests coming into breakfast can pour a quick coffee into a mug to take to their table. I was gasping for a coffee as I came down for breakfast and tried to help myself to a quick coffee at the table at the bottom of the stairs in Reception but I was stopped from doing this by the doorman and propelled forwards to the dining room. I had to wait for ten minutes, still gasping for coffee, while we were seated at table, ordered from menu, ordered a cappuccino, helped myself to something from the buffet and had consumed it, all before a coffee arrived at our table! Plus, I don’t like the muesli presented in what reminds me of a toothbrush holder - the glass tumbler thing. I would prefer the muesli presented in a breakfast plate (like a small soup plate or dessert plate). The food and coffee is all delightful, a real treat, it’s a dreamy breakfast, so I’m not complaining, just giving you some feedback. When something lovely happens to me in my daily life I call it ‘A Marcliffe Moment’ - just a dreamy interlude of perfection."

"We were only in Stonehaven for one night. However, the Ship Inn was a great choice. We (4 of us) had dinner there and it was excellent! The waiting-staff was very friendly and helpful. We had included breakfast there the next morning as well and we were glad we did with made-to-order items as well as some buffet-choices. The rooms were comfortable and the view of the harbor was wonderful. "

"It was a fabulous stay and the staff were fantastic. we had one issue in that on Saturday the bathroom tap came off in my wife's hand. I managed to push it together temporarily to stem the leak. The Hotel had no maintenance staff on site over the weekend and when we left on Sunday at lunch time the tap had not been repaired. This was not good."

"Bar well stocked staff knowledgeable breakfast plentiful rooms very comfortable and clean "

"The room was lovely. Breakfast was very good. All the staff that we had interactions with were helpful and polite. Car parking was in a public car park next to the hotel. It was really handy and very reasonable for an overnight stay ( £13 for 24 hours)"
