We were in room 12 which was lovely and warm as always, love the shower in the Bathroom power shower ample hot water, and nice comfy bed, this wasn't our first stay there as, we love the friendly atmosphere and the staff are very helpful, great views especially from the resturant with it's picture windows looking out onto the North Sea. Looking foward to our stay later in the year again, might opt for one of the sea view rooms which are slightly bigger in size. A cooked breakfast is included or if you fancy something lighter they have alternative things on the menu as well as cornflakes or more. We chose this hotel because of it's location to family in the area which suited our needs. 5 ☆☆☆☆☆.

Second visit to Cove Bay hotel, both visits to see a family members. Hotel is on the outskirts of Aberdeen overlooking the North Sea. Our rooms were very comfortable and nicely decorated. The bathrooms have a great shower but could have done with another radiator as they were quite chilly. The food is excellent. Hot breakfast items are many, and good quality. Evening meal was tasty and pleasant service.

Cosy Hotel

The owner was wonderful, very helpful and so accommodating. The hotel was lovely, very cosy rooms, so if you’re over 6ft tall the beds are very small doubles, so not very comfortable for us but very clean, beautifully decorated and the food was delicious and hot! Great parking and overall the service was excellent.
