We had such a lovely time at Cove Bay. The room, the view, the location, the staff, the breakfast. Everything was perfect and we will definitely remember our stay here for a long time.

The location of the hotel, and the Sea Views. The fact that it isn't to far from our relations home. And it's nice to have very friendly staff who bend over backwards to help you. The ample free parking behind the hotel, can't fault any of our stay which is why we are hoping to return later this year in October. You'd be hard pushed to find a better place to stay, Great Hotel, Good Parking Facilities, Great Breakfast and Evening meals Great Staff and Management, and Competitive Pricing. Keep doing what you do best, by keeping your high standards and practices, well done to all the staff and we wish you a Happy and Prosperous New Year in 2025

Pillows could be firmer, other than that it was a very pleasant stay. And we will be back.

Couldn't fault breakfast it was excellent, and waitresses were attentive and efficient through out. Like all the staff really.

When we arrived at the hotel and after checking in, having specified a time during booking online, we found the room very cold as the radiators were all cold, someone should have checked that the room was warm for guests arriving, The only other thing that let us down was the noise from the adjacent room when the shower was being used. Didn't think much of window that looks right into the restaurant and viewed from that side also it means having the curtain closed much of the time for privacy, would prefer another room location in the hotel.

Considering it is a 3-star hotel, it met all of our expectations. It is located in a charming historic building. The staff was very nice and helpful and the place felt clean. The room and bathroom were nicely updated. One needs to keep in mind that this is a traditional Scottish inn which means there is a bar and restaurant on the ground level and the reception is in the bar. It was not an issue for us but it I think it is good to have the understanding.

There were small things that could have been thought of. The TV was installed on the wall not in front of the bed but way to the side and did not have an arm that would allow for tilting it in the direction of the bed. We could not open the window all the way because of the oversized valance blocking it - a 4-inch one would have been just fine. We paid for the room with the view but it was a view of the parking lot with some see in the background. The restaurant served yummy food but the restaurant lacked the atmosphere ( a simple dimmer could improve the ambiance).

The food was outstanding 😄

The staff were very busy , we had a substantial wait for dinner . One member of staff was lovely and empathetic and the other was snappy and said they were busy basically what did I expect 'the steak takes time to cook'. The food was delicious Was also surprised to be be brought back from my room to settle the dinner bill. I was staying overnight and had paid for breakfast. The hotel also had my car reg and email. IIf they had asked for my credit card when taking my order or explained that the meal had to be paid on completing it would have been fine.. Communication is key.

Room was generally comfortable with an excellent view, although the desk was a little too small for comfortable working in the evening. The restaurant is award-winning and the two evening meals and breakfast's I enjoyed were superb.

The desk in the room was a little too small to work comfortably, i.e. it was difficult getting legs under the desk due to a small gap and Large chair and the limited depth of the desk made it difficult to work with laptop and documents. Additionally, I had problems with the WiFi, I kept getting messages about it being unsecured and had problems with speed.

The location was perfect for my work , staff super friendly and very efficient great atmosphere in this absolutely amazing hotel ,food selection superb and just perfect,lovely breakfast in the morning to set you up for the day no need for a lunch as still full up with breakfast, nice secure car park and great views ,lovely and quiet I got great nights sleep not sure about rooms next to mine as I snore quite loudly , I will use here again as suits my needs and more .

Nothing required to make this better perfect as it is .

Breakfast was delicious, staff were very very helpful, we were very late arrivals and everything and more was done to make sure we got into the hotel and our rooms. The rooms were very tastefully decorated and comfortable and the view from the room was just wonderful. What a great little gem of a hotel and very helpful staff.

My time keeping!!!! Due to our very late arrival we missed out on what looked like a very well stock bar…

The calm and the peace of a characterful old granite inn but still on southern edge of city plus the coastal views. The food is really very good. Friendly and helpful staff at every turn. Room was comfortable, traditional nice decor, with great bed, good pillows and not too small as single rooms go. It had a great modern en suite with very good shower and high quality soap/shampoo. Nice view of the sea and tea/coffee making available with biscuits.

My room was above the public bar and it was noisy until just after midnight BUT it was a Saturday night and it's clearly a popular venue with locals. After last orders it all quietened down quickly so it's a minor point to be aware of.

my wife and i couldn`t fault cove bay hotel even with our very late arrival due to thunderstorms they had saved us a good hot meal , so nothing was to much trouble for them to make your stay even better , even the lady running the bar [ tuesday evening] was very helpful telling us best routes to take and best place for lunch . had a couple of evening meals in the hotel all food was excellent . also on the plus side there was a excellent breakfast menu all served by a top class friendly lady the plus point was 4 days of hot sunny weather

the one thing we didn`t like was having to leave and come home
