Marine Hotel

Fine to stay warm comfortable

Stayed here for 2 nights for work reasons my first thoughts when I seen the hotel was now I understand why it was so cheap to book. Firstly the lift was out of order and being told your on the third floor was not a great start. I found the room and opened the door only to find the door wouldn’t open completely as it was hitting the bed. The room was definitely well used over the years and was in need of a good renovation the window frame was rotten there was holes in the walls there was lights in the ceiling with no bulbs the floor going into the bedroom was black with all the use it’s had over the years the shower was like something from the 70s and no hot water. But one thing I can say the food was absolutely amazing really good menu I definitely give 5 out of 5 for the food and the staff.

The hotel is filthy. There is mold growing all over the bathroom, there are holes in the walls, wallpaper peeling, broken closets, and dirty carpeting. There is a disco at night in the bar that we could hear through the walls until 2:30am. We demanded a refund which the owner agreed to and then charged us anyway and refused to honor his agreement. The area is rundown and the picture of the view is not what you get. There are industrial buildings along the waterfront directly in front of the hotel. This place is a dump.

The hotel suffers from the neighbouring fish processing plant. Loud machinery running around the clock and occasional appalling smells to be expected. Also the rooms seem to be last updated during Tacher's regime.

Extremely clean and picturesque

I have just returned from a two night stay as needed accommodation due to a friends wedding in a local village close by. I was with a friend. Our room ad a double bed and a single bed which were both very comfortable. We both had really good sleeps both nights. Room was very spacious, tea/coffee and water and biscuits were provided complimentary. Our room was very warm and cosy all night and the heater was easy to turn up or down. Only thing that let the room down was the ensuite bathroom it didn't feel very clean, unable to get the hot water to work. The grouting and woodwork were coming away due to being old and the shower curtain was awful with mold and brown all along the bottom, the floor was also quite stained due to overuse. A facelift of the bathroom would be a good idea. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble and were very apologetic when their was a mix up with our room. We had a meal in the hotel restaurant and it was lovely, big portion of food and the waitress was friendly and we didn't have too long a wait. I would stay here again If i ever find myself back in Buckie.

Good value for accomodation but Breakfast a bit over-priced.

We enjoyed our stay here. Beautiful view of the sea. Everyone was very helpful and kind. Food was delicious but restaurant is not open everyday..

Uninviting with poor dated decor but hot shower and comfortable bed with crisp linen
