Beautiful location on a small bay. Free parking on the street in front of the Inn. Great restaurant. The trail up the hill ( steep) to the Dunnottar Castle is 3 miles round trip but absolutely worth it if one is able. The room was small but immaculate, lots of hot water, good WiFi and a very reasonable price at the time of this review. I did not see if there was a lift, one flight of steep stairs to our room. Highly recommended.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ship Inn. Small town experience. Food was really good and the staff were super friendly. The room was comfy. Felt like I was at my favourite Aunties house! Shoutout to Abby Chivon Zane Fifi and Fiona. Heather/Linda from Canada

We had a pleasant one night stay and found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean but decor and furniture a little tired. Food was great - especially the breakfast which was included in the price. Would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed this lovely hotel in Stonehaven. It was quaint and the service was truly wonderful. We enjoyed the breakfast (which was included and gave us many options), the restaurant, pub and the proximity to the amazing activities this area has to offer, including Dunnottar Castle, bird watching, Wynford Farm and lovely day hikes and strolls. We also enjoyed being near the water and walking about Stonehaven. Thank you for an incredible stay and experience.

This place is awesome! A great view, a wonderful pub downstairs, clean warm room. Good bed and bedding. The history!.... It is a bit on the smaller side and you have to climb stairs to get to your room. You enter from a locked back door to am internal staircase-felt very secure. Excellent food.

The Ship Inn is a gem! Set on a lovely beach, it is a charming place! The rooms are immaculately clean and beautiful. The mattress was so comfortable for a good night’s sleep. Walking around Stonehaven, we enjoyed the beach, the walk to the castle, and the paths in Donnotter Woods. The restaurant was great, and the included morning breakfast was very filling. All the staff were helpful, friendly, and professional. We highly recommend The Ship Inn.

Great little Inn with an awesome view out of the front door. Walked to Dunnotaur castle, just an amazing coastal town. Restaurant was great at the hotel (mussels), and staff was very friendly just like all Scottish people we met. Would definitely stay there again.
