Scotland is beautiful and highly recommend it.We stayed for 4 nights at this hotel and loved it.Hotel staff went of their way to meet our needs. Drew was especially helpful and kind.We had booked a 1 bedroom suite. Our kids are now grown and both are 6’+. After the 1st night we requested a bigger bed for the kids. The hotel was very kind to change our reservation from 1 bedroom suite to 2 queen rooms attached.We are looking forward to visiting again and this will definitely be our hotel of choice.

We had a fabulous stay. ||Great central location in Aberdeen. We stayed as we were seeing a band in the Music Hall which was less that 10 minutes walk away.  …

I did not feel safe at this hotel due to the lock system. The heating could not be turned off and they did offer to move me, but I was out of energy to do so, so that is totally on me. Room was comfy just didnt feel right for me. Breakfast was nothing special. Location is great and service very friendly and available for questions. Just a shame about the room.

Nice enough, room was clean, staff were helpful, breakfast was okay but just felt it was rather overpriced for what it was as we expected something a bit more luxurious tbh. If it had been average priced then I'd have given it a better rating.The description on booking.com stated that a bathrobe and slippers were provided- they were not, although I asked at reception and the member of staff very kindly provided us with bathrobes (and I picked up some slippers while shopping, as if I'd have known they weren't provided I would have packed my own!).There was a kettle but no coffee machine, and I've been to much cheaper hotels which do provide this. The shower was a bit weak too.Breakfast was okay, free from options are provided, but although i always carry my own, we couldn't see a hand sanitiser station anywhere which should really be a standard thing at a buffet many people are touching tongs etc at!Small jars of jam, marmalade etc many of which were finished (we came at the middle, not near the end of service) rather than individual servings- which I'd honestly have preferred especially given the lack of hand sanitiser!I know a lot of this sounds nit picky but given the price we paid and comparing it to others at similar or cheaper price points, it was slightly disappointing for the high price.

We had a wonderful stay here - the staff were very attentive. My partner got in touch before and had said about it being my birthday, and the staff had put out comp bottles of beer and a bottle of prosecco for myself which was such a kind …

I’d say the best hotel choice in Aberdeen, as in the more expensive options probably aren’t worth the difference. If booked at the right time, this property can be great value.Modern and comfortable rooms are the most important thing for me and I was happy that the room was exactly what I expected from the photos online. Probably some wear and tear needing attention such as minor paintwork but the overall fit and finish is of a great level for this price point.The issues I had were noise and temperature. I was trying to sleep in but was hearing nearby room doors opening and closing. Soundproofing wasn’t enough to prevent me hearing even minimal noise like a hoover being moved next door. Not a dealbreaker for me but then again the next door guests weren’t noisy during my stay.Housekeeping opened the door to come in the morning of the day I was checking out. Never had this happen at any hotel before so not sure if there’s some miscommunication between housekeeping and front desk.Duvet must have been a winter one being used year round because it was uncomfortably hot for me in summer. Tried using cool AC to compensate but just ended up being half cold half warm.Overall a great hard product but probably a few smaller things for management to look at improving.

Very central location with underground parking. Staff were very helpful, friendly, and working hard. AC was amazing. No food service and the bar area was empty and not continually maintained, but because of the location that doesn’t really matter. Saw lots of cute dogs come in and out and there’s a Costa opposite the hotel. The bathroom was hidden behind a sliding door mirror that didn’t have a lock. Kitchenette was very handy and came with a dishwasher too.

Well appointed hotel, friendly helpful staff and good breakfast. Atrocious access by car without getting a fine for going through a bus only zone or illegally standing in a loading zone. …
