What c b doesn't like about The Buchan:
Overall nice hotel and nice people, but there was one HUGE problem with my stay. The shower water smelled HORRIBLY like...sewage or something rotten. My hair smelled absolutely disgusting two weeks even tough I washed it many times. Please, dear hotel staff, fix this issue. View all feedback. What Fiona H likes about The Buchan:
We are eight friends out for a Sunday walk along by the river. We ended a beautiful walk with coffee and scones all around. Friendly and professional staff. Well decorated and clean accommodation. View all feedback.

read moreThe Buchan Hotel Restaurant offers a friendly atmosphere and efficient staff, with delicious and plentiful food. However, limited options for food allergies and inconsistent portion sizes were noted by some guests. The decor was worn, and some guests felt disappointed by the lack of response to their concerns. Despite these issues, the hotel offers comfort, with a standout chef providing exceptional meals. Prices are reasonable, making it a recommended spot for delicious dining experiences in Ellon. With a nice selection of dishes, including tasty desserts, and friendly service, it is a good choice for a meal out.
