A friendly, family-run hotel located in one of Fife's picturesque coastal villages, specializing in fresh fare, using local Scottish produce where possible.

This is a huge hotel with every room looking out over the Firth of Forth toward Edinburgh. It felt like a seaside resort. There were a lot of families of all ages yet it was quiet and didn’t seem busy. Our deluxe room had a small living room with sofa, desk and chairs, and balcony. Our balcony was tiny with only one chair because we were on the outermost edge but we were happy with the room location because it was quiet. A tea kettle, instant coffee, teas, and biscuits were provided. The bedroom was in a loft up a set of stairs. The loft also had floor to ceiling views but no balcony. The view was amazing.
The hotel amenities included a pool, hot tub, sauna, snooker tables, arcade and game room. Warning, the pool’s last entry is 8 pm. We didn’t realize this and came a little late but since we were just using the sauna, the attendant let us in for the final half hour. In addition to these areas, there was also a common area with comfy chairs where you could enjoy the view and there were two terraces.
The Horizons restaurant is huge. I’m not sure why we needed a reservation. There’s lots of tables by the windows and there is a huge bar lounge area that served food also. The bar had an excellent selection of Scottish gins and whiskies. The dinner was good—I had the special which was a chicken pie and it was good. Breakfast included a cold service buffet and Scottish breakfast off the menu.
The staff throughout the hotel, bar and restaurant all very helpful and friendly.
With panoramic views across the Firth of Forth, DoubleTree by Hilton Edinburgh - Queensferry Crossing offers spacious rooms with free WiFi and a modern bar. There is ample free parking on-site.

The room was spacious & the bed comfortable.
The breakfast was very generous, great value & set us up for the day.
The view of the Forth Road Bridge from our breakfast table was amazing... see photo
Very conveniently located to catch the X55 express bus into Edinburgh.
The staff were very helpful & even stored our luggage for a few hours, despite us having already booked out.
Overlooking the Firth of Forth railway bridge, The Hawes Inn by Innkeeper's Collection, is just 20 minutes’ drive from the historical city center of Edinburgh.

a lovely village with interesting church, castle and gardens, even a train station for quick access to Edinburgh, Perth, etc. Would have liked more time there as spent one day doing the nearby Dalmeny trail half marathon.

Loved the hotel and the surrounding village. The Silver Sands beach and cafe only a 10 minute walk away. Wonderful place to go and chill out for a couple of days. Ideal for walkers or those who just want to take short drives around the East coast.

The cottage was beautiful and tastefully decorated.
The bathroom is on ground floor with a large walk-in shower
There is a sea view from the bedroom window, parking at the front door and a sort walk to the beach.
There are a few shops in the village - post office, a deli and gift shop. The train station to Edinburgh is a five minute walk. The whole stay was perfect.

Ideally situated for a quiet stay but railway in centre of village connects you to so much very conveniently IE Edinburgh 30 trains daily and its a two minute walk to the station. Dundee and Aberdeen the other way.

The hotel was clean and The Staff where lovely the only problem was wee could not sit in the bar to have a drink as the tables were all booked for food
So wee had to leave the hotel to go and have a drink Then come back to our room until
it was time for us to go down for our meal we found it very inconvenient and strange as most off the tables where booked for locals .

Aberdour is small and easy to get round though there is a steep walk to the harbour. There are several interesting gift and art shops as well as enough eating places to keep you going during the day and in the evening. The library advertises events which visitors can join in with, for example while I stayed there was a talk about the Lewis Chessmen, followed by refreshments and craft sales. The railway station is on the main line to Edinburgh and there are also good bus services to north and south of the town for visitors without their own transport. It is a beautiful town with short walks on lovely coastal and country routes.
The hotel was just fabulous, used for a party of 15 hens & we had more than enough space to party, sleep without getting on top of each other. The clipper bar & room are simply stunning & the function suite with disco lights was just perfect for the activities/entertainment we had hired to come in. John couldn’t have been more helpful in answering all my emails when first booked & also in the run up to the booking. I have already recommended to others & everyone is in the party has not stopped raving about it.
We stayed one night and were in the process of walking the Fife Coastal Path, having started to the north of St Andrews. The Aberdour Hotel was a perfect place to stop, the facilities are good and the staff were warm and very friendly. We ate dinner in the restaurant, which was pretty good. The breakfast was also great and it really set us up for a day of walking. The Aberdour Hotel is also 5 minutes walk to both the railway station and bus stop, which could be very useful.
We hired the hotel for our wedding. The space was fantastic for our group of 24. John (owner) was extremely helpful and helped us to contact local business owners and went over and above to help make the prep on the run up to the day as smooth as possible.
We had a fantastic stay and we absolutely loved using the different areas for different parts of our day.
Thank you!
The staff were fantastic and very helpful. The breakfast was very nice and made a good start to the day! Parking is easiest at the train station nearby, a very short walk to the hotel. The location is very handy for a quick trip into Edinburgh by train or car as well as exploring the Forth coast of Fife.
a gorgeous quaint cottage in the peaceful town of Aberdour! it was great to come back to this tranquil location after a day exploring the busy city of Edinburgh! the bed and facilities were all perfect! especially having the sea a stones through away! loved it, would definitely go back
Aberdour is very well served with local shops, cafes and pubs. Garden Cottage is only 100 metres walk from a quiet beach and small harbour serving the local yacht club. Easy travel into Edinburgh; 30 mins by train. Kids (of all ages) will enjoy the trip over the Forth Rail Bridge.
Beautiful cottage, with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Very calming and relaxing, lovely garden space for warmer weather. Within easy walking distance of Aberdour beach and you can watch the boats from the bedroom window.
Aberdour is a lovely village right on the train line from Edinburgh. We really enjoyed the hotel with its comfortable rooms, great staff and tasty food. We would like to visit again.
This hotel was perfect for my stay with my dog. Tjr staff couldn't do more to make me and Brophy comfortable. Aberdour is really pretty and the hotel was well located for exploring.
The accommodations were wonderful. The staff did an outstanding job. The food was delicious and prepared to perfection. I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.
