Visited here on Saturday 5th May for a evening dinner with relation from Australia and the food was first class. The portions were larger than normally expected and served piping hot. Staff very attentive and good value for money. Have eaten here before and no regrets.

Was advised to try this spot by a local. Wanted low key, quiet, and welcoming for two seniors and two mid age folks. To make the long story short, the large woman (as referenced in another review), another large man and a man who was possibly an owner or bartender were the least bit bothered that four people approached the...

A very pleasant experience at the Aberdour. From day 1 they were at attentative and hospitable. The staff were great, the rooms were fine, the food was good. Nothing to be complained at. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Don't be put off by the other negative reviews. They are far off the mark.

A very pleasant stay, the room was bright and clean. We found the food to be excellent, nothing fancy but good and wholesome. Overall the Aberdour was a great find, and we will defiantly use again.

We booked here for our christmas work night out as they were offereing a "Party Night". At £31.50 the price didnt seem too bad for a 3 course meal (all of which sounded fantastic), a band and party games. We arrived to be crammed into a table, and served a meal I can only describe as utterly terrible! For starter... More

This was ideal for us with a young toddler. Our room to the front of the hotel was ideal as there was enough room for our travel cot tent and she was entertained for ages looking out for cars going past and the bowling green opposite. The bar /restaurant was just what we wanted too. They have a couple of... More

Stayed here for one night with a friend. We stayed in a room on the top floor, from which we could hear water running in the pipes. There seemed to be some sort of event going on in the bar downstairs, it was pretty loud and the entire hotel smelled of fried food. We couldn't close the window in our... More
