I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms offered a beautiful view of the North Sea, and the restaurant was a delightful experience. However, I wished the room had air conditioning and didn't require extra payment for a double bed. The service was attentive, with a minor slip in forgetting to ask about more drinks, but they quickly rectified it with a sincere apology. The location was splendid, offering panoramic views of the beach and coastline from front-facing areas. The dining experience was amazing, and the authentic Indian dishes were a highlight. Overall, a great experience with some room for improvement.

The sea view 'side on room' provided an exciting atmosphere late into the night. The room was posh, but noise levels should be addressed.

The location was ideal for a scenic walk along the Scottish coast, offering picturesque views of the North Sea and beaches. However, the distribution of food could be improved, and investing in shower screens would enhance the modernity.

The dining experience was mixed. While the location in the reception area was disappointing for the price, staff attentiveness to dietary needs was commendable.

The hotel is in a great position overlooking the Moray Firth, making it convenient for day trips and starting long walks along the Scottish coast. The rooms were spacious, warm, and comfortable, though the heating seemed low. The service was exceptional with accommodating staff throughout. The dining experience featured excellent use of local produce, but the breakfast not being a buffet style was a small drawback. Overall, a lovely location with friendly service and great dining options.
