Palace Hotel

We had a family party for 50 in private room with 10 bedrooms booked for overnight guests. We were very impressed with the quality of service, how well organised the function staff were and how promptly the food was served to everyone. The food was very good and I particularly enjoyed the vegetarian option which was the best I have had at a function. The bedrooms were of a good size, very clean and warm. The breakfasts were lovely with plenty of options. They were also happy to provide a tray for an elderly relative to have breakfast in their room. Overall we were very pleased with the Palace Hotel and thought it good value.

We held our 60th wedding anniversary in the front room. There were 30 people, family and friends including 5 children. The young lady organising the evening was excellent! Everything ran smoothly, the food and service was faultless. I also had my 80th birthday party there and that went perfectly as well! Thank you to all the staff for a very enjoyable evening!

Lovely hotel big room nice bathroom very handy for a Wetherspoons near the high street plenty places to eat lovely toiletries plenty towels free Wi-Fi nice bar area plenty car park space which is free to use only minus point we had a back room with no view

Stayed there on the 8th for a school reunion. Very pleasant welcome with a very nice room. They have Poretti in the bar and very reasonably priced. But the stand out for me was the breakfast. Quite possibly the best cooked breakfast I’ve ever had, made to order so nothing under lights. Worth a return trip just for that.

My stay at The Palace Hotel has been nothing but the best. From the staff, the food, the rooms, nothing could have been better. I was recommended to stay here by my family who stay in the area (who I assure you would’ve been held accountable by me if it wasn’t good!!). The reception staff are fantastic, made me laugh upon check in. Went to the restaurant for food, again fantastic. Bar staff after that were great. Knowledgable, friendly, kept you entertained. I have to make a special mention to the night staff. We all know it’s not easy working a nightshift. Especially with lower staff numbers looking after a whole hotel. Both the night staff I seen (separate nights) were both gents. Couldn’t have done more. Room service delivered, it never was a problem. It was evident their professionalism and commitment to work makes the guest feel safe in the hotel. I am due to check out tomorrow morning but would like to say thank you to all the staff. I will absolutely stay here again when visiting family in the area.

Our experience of the Palace Hotel to date is confined to having an early evening meal there prior to attending a concert in Peterhead within the past few days. Having looked at possibilities on-line, we had booked in advance, and have never ever been to this hotel before, our home city being Aberdeen (35 miles away) and our trips to the Peterhead area usually taking the form of a 'whole day package' in our car along with some visitors: that particular coastal area being a highly rewarding part of Scotland to aim for when looking to plan a mid-summer 12-hour day trip out and back from Aberdeen for the day. We enjoyed our Palace Hotel , Peterhead dining experience very much. The lady on reception could not have been more welcoming, and the same was true of the staff in the upstairs dining area. We enjoyed the rather old style feel of our surroundings, which have been sympathetically modernised, with plenty of space still between tables, comfy chairs, ample space on the table tops and plenty of interesting photos and artwork on the walls to take a look at. Smartly dressed waiters really knew their jobs, and the pacing of everything was very well judged. A 5-star hotel could not have looked after us better in terms of quality of service, our having booked an early table (5 pm) because of our early evening engagement. With only four or five tables occupied at the time, the quality of the attention we received was all we could have wished for. The well-balanced, plenty of choice standard menu is on--line, and, to our surprise, there were Specials of the Day too. One was a pork stroganoff with rice and vegetables. Sensibly priced, it a arrived piping hot, attractively presented and packed with pork. Really good value. Watching the head waiter at work made the years roll back. A trio at a nearby table had their meals brought to them 'old style', with the waiter balancing a large silver salver one-handed at shoulder height as he approached their table, and then taking the time to set them down carefully. On this salver were all three meals, again very well presented and of considerable size. How the years rolled back, and various film scenes sprang to mind! We really could not have been better looked after in terms of service, and being treated in that way got our evening in Peterhead off to an excellent start; and all the more so when the hotel owner made clear to us that, provided we felt we could cope with the walking (we are both in our early eighties), we were welcome to leave our car in their hotel car park for the duration of the evening rather than fight for a parking place (and worry about finding one!) that bit closer to the concert venue, which was a 10-minute walk away. So very kind and thoughtful and, for us, a godsend: we coped fine with the short walk. Good food, highly attentive service, and not at any point addressed as "You guys". What a start to our evening at the opera! (Scottish Opera on tour, small scale. Superb.) W
