    Slightly biased as it was the town were I was born so I was not a complete stranger to the town. Had only passed through over the past 50 years. It is a nice town, adequate shops and catering options for a short stay. There are several hotels and I imagine they have restaurants and lounge bars, the Station Hotel definitely has. There are several walks around the area - I picked up a leaflet showing these. There is a nice picnic and parking area down by the river Ythan. There is a cycling/walking path along what used to be a railway line which is ideal for getting to some local villages. The bus service from Aberdeen is perfectly adequate and there is also a park and ride scheme and retail park on the outskirts of the town. Ellon is ideally situated for visiting other towns and villages in the area. I was visiting family so did not have much change to sightsee.

    I flew to Ellon via Aberdeen for a funeral and did not look around Ellon. Because of the lack of flights I had to stay 2 nights at The Buchan and on the second day my room and towels and bed etc were left unattended. I got back to the hotel around 9 pm and everywhere was locked up and no staff found.

    Superb apartment in the centre of Ellon, with access within 10m to the riverside path ( which also is part of the local parkrun course) Beautifully furnished. Breakfast is continental style, left in the fridge the evening before - plenty of meat, cheeses, yogurt, bread, croissant, jam , milk juice, etc. private parking is a little tricky initially as it is down a narrow lane but actually easy enough to reverse into. 20 minmute walk to Brewdog brewery, 10 minutes down the riverside path to Aldi for provisions.

    Everything was very pleasent and comfortable. We stayed In a room that was recently renovated, and it looked great and both bed and sofa were very comfortable. Shower was great - very good water pressure and a sophisticated mirror that thaws the condensation by itself and tells the time. Staff was very nice and helpful - in the hotel as well as the restaurant and bar. We had a blast at the bar. So yes, definitely will recommend to anyone.

    The hotel was spotlessly clean and although only 2 stars we have stayed in 3 star hotels who would be in a worse condition. The staff were great and it was good value for money. Bedroom was large and bathroom had a walk in shower all in excellwnt condition. Breakfast was very good. All in all we would be more than happy staying there again

    This was a nice little spot to stop for us between Aberdeen and Inverness and the proximity to the seal beach was wonderful! The staff were really friendly, the room was well equipped, and there was a great bathroom. Nice restaurant where we had an excellent dinner (and huge whisky selection) and delicious breakfast with great options!

    Hotel is on the edge of a lovely little village and ideally located for access to beach and river estuary, where nature lovers can see seals and lots of seabirds. The hotel is not fancy but has a good atmosphere. Staff friendly and helpful. Food was excellent both dinner and cooked breakfast. Also dog friendly. Would stay again.

    The location was perfect for me. The host was friendly and informative. Lovely big back garden, close to the beach and the seals. Close to the bus and it wasn’t too bad getting around. Very easy to get to Eberdeen. As a solo female traveller I felt safe in all Newburgh and Ellon travels.

    We couldn't fault the hotel. The bedroom was first class, the location for us was perfect with the beach only a few minutes walk away. The food was excellent as was the dining area. We will definitely be using this hotel when in the area again.

    This property truly provides superior lodging. I stayed in several nice hotels in Scotland on this trip, and The New Inn stood out as the best. The common areas and room were spotless. Staff was friendly and helpful.
