The bed in room 5 was terrible. I’d like to advise the owner to sleep in there for a night. He will then go and get a new mattress or bed I would think. The rest of the place was delightful- however our sleep was terrible.

The Boat Inn, hotel in Alford

On the banks of the River Dee, The Boat Inn in Aboyne offers accommodation, a cosy bar and restaurant.

We had one of the smaller rooms but it did not lack in comfort - the bed was huge and super comfy, the shower was great too. Staff were polite, friendly and helpful and our dog 🐶 was made to feel very welcome. In our room there was a bowl of biscuits for him, a towel, poo bags and plastic mat for his bowl. Our dog's cage was placed under the room window, and the three of us had a comfy night with the windows open listening to the birds in the nearby trees. Dinner was good and very busy (always book a table), a bowl of water for our pooch and, lovely cocktails 🍸on the menu - a nice treat to have one! Breakfast was superb, a great range to choose from, and again, served by friendly, helpful staff. Excellent walks locally, particularly right opposite along the Dee, and further up the road to an open park. The Boat Inn excels in location, breakfast and staff - they're the best. This is a perfect example of a dog friendly destination 🐾🙌🐶🙌🐾

This place had a very homely feel to it; I would stay here again. It really is out yonder but there is plenty of car parking out front. Everyone staying there was friendly and the staff although they appeared quite busy were also friendly. The dinner was good value for money and nice. There was a nice fire to sit around after dinner and the rooms were comfortable and cosy. Limited options for breakfast as it's a small hotel, but enough to get you going for the morning.
