Non existent stay
I cannot do this as despite booking and paying for three rooms for a family wedding nearby in March 2025, I was given 48 hours notice that the hotel could not accommodate two of the rooms. The staff were not at all helpful when I phoned them. Didn’t seem to care that this was causing a lot of anxiety and stress. I was told my booking was on ‘the old’ system as the hotel has changed hands. When the one party member checked in I found the staff not very welcoming at all. No smiling welcome. Very laid back about the whole thing.

Not as expected
Very tired and run down. Had called beforehand and explained I had walking difficulties and was promised a lower level room - they tried to put me on the second floor but could not do the stairs so they found a room on the 1st floor. Needs a makeover. It’s is so run down it looks dirty but it is not. Apart from lipstick on my glass it was actually very clean. Thought I had boooked for breakfast through hotels.com but hadn’t so didn’t eat at the hotel.

The hotel has gone downhill since changing hands. The breakfast food was cold and the eggs were overcooked. I had salmon for breakfast purporting to be fresh from Portsoy but it certainly didn’t look like it. It meant that we were no way going to eat in the hotel for our evening meal. The cleaning standards were very poor. The carpet on stairs looked like they’d never been hoovered for a good while and window ledges were dirty.
The bed was actually comfortable and clean however.
I was so very disappointed with the hotel

Fantastic hospitality from the owners and staff
Food was delicious,so no surprise the restaurant was very busy
The 14:00 check in makes a big difference.
Portsoy and the surrounding villages were all very clean with breathtaking scenery.
We hope to return sooner than later.

Comfortable, clean and good breakfast
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Station Hotel Portsoy. The bedroom was large, nicely decorated and the beds really comfortable. The room and bathroom were very clean and bed linen good quality and spotless. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Central location with pleasant walk down to the harbour.

Great hotel
From entering the reception until leaving 2 days later everything was excellent, couldn't fault anything. The staff were friendly and the service was as good, the food was high class and i would recommend the fish platter of an evening, great stay.
