"What a contrast to my last hotel (Balmoral Lodge, Southport ). St Michael's was everything I want from a B&B and more. Beautiful vintage furniture, period features, immaculately clean, lovely owner, great atmosphere. Loved it and the presence of a coffee machine, a fridge and a balcony (looking over the garden) made this a great experience. . I was slightly worried about possible noise from the main road, but, even sitting on the balcony, it was surprisingly quiet. My only issue was the very...

Breakfast was delectable! Fresh, buttery croissants, creamy eggs, tasty haggis, sweet fried tomatoes and the tenderest bacon! The beds were so comfortable and the pillows so fluffy!!!

"Lovely clean family room, all brand new furnishings so really comfortable. Quiet calm place to stay, self check in so barely see anyone but that’s just fine. Lovely view of sea from room and if not then only ten paces and at sea wall so you can hear it and feel near it. Not much going on in town but just very calm and quaint and authentic so not over touristy, which is perfect. Ideal base for exploring region."

Top Elgin Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Firth Hotel & Restaurant

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff. Good was good and a great menu choice. The room was small but had everything you need. The location was great and the view of the beach was amazing."

Golf View Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a nice double room overlooking Moray Golf Club. The room doubled in size if you kept the bathroom door wide open, so we did."

The Royal Hotel

8/10 Good

"Friendly efficient staff, nice restaurant with a good breakfast. Handy for both the train and bus stations. My only problem was the room I was in, although it had almost all that I needed, was a bit small."

The Station Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was genuinely impressed by this hotel. We checked in later in the day, and our family suite exceeded expectations. It was perfect for our trip, with exceptionally comfortable beds, high-quality bedding, plush towels, and thoughtful amenities that rivaled what you would expect from a five-star city hotel. The bathroom was immaculate and appeared to have been recently renovated, while the furnishings and décor struck the perfect balance between refined comfort and the charm of a cozy Scottish country inn. The staff was exceptionally warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The restaurant was also a highlight, offering excellent food and a full bar in a relaxed and inviting setting. I would especially recommend taking advantage of breakfast and dinner—the quality of the food and the service were outstanding. Its proximity to the river and the surrounding scenery only add to its charm—the setting looks as though it could have come straight out of A River Runs Through It. I highly recommend it and would gladly return in the future."

The Mansion House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Our room was slightly unconventional, being more like a conservatory with a four poster bed in the middle. Many curtains to close! Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Excellent breakfast. Would come back. There are some areas that need maintenance. Old furnishings are antique. One negative was that my son stayed in a camp bed in the room with a very thin mattress and wasn’t entirely comfortable. Other than that we had a nice stay."

The Pines Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Pines exceeded all our expectations, Lyn and Lee are gracious hosts made us feel very welcomed and were very helpful. Room was spacious and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. We highly recommend the Pines Guest House"

The Mill House Hotel

"Fantastic stay and delicious meal in the restaurant"

Laichmoray Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is made to order and is excellent . Bar has good choice but a little pricey. Restaurant is also excellent and has good choice of menu. Always busy and requires reservation. On the whole a good place to stay, but no lift so stairs to all floors."
