Staff were very friendly and professional and nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel is ideally located as a base for touring or for the airport. I personally found the noise of the aeroplanes too loud as the room shook at times when they went past and that is the only reason I would not personally stay here again. The room was comfortable and spacious ...bathroom modern but the bedroom itself slightly dated. Was clean and tidy throughout. The car park is free which is always a bonus in Aberdeen. I did not eat at the hotel so cannot comment on the food.

Hidden gem We booked for convenience, but were really surprised by how great this place was, esp for the price. Gentleman at the front desk was great as was our waiter, and room was spotless

Terrible experience Booked last minute to stay after spending a belated Christmas Day with family. Arrived after midnight and was taken to my room, got ready for bed and the bathroom fan wouldn’t go off, contacted reception and the night porter came and it still wouldn’t go off so he agreed to move me, he tried two rooms on the same floor both fans were on and loud. I was moved to a fourth room which luckily had a switch to turn the fan off but the radiator in the bathroom and next to the bed was extremely loud, turned both off and went to sleep. Woke up at 6am to a freezing room, turned the radiator back on and got no further sleep as it was so loud. In the morning went to use the shower and found bits of hair on the bathroom floor. Spoke to the manager before leaving who apologised and said to contact ********** for a refund; which I did when I got home. They phoned the hotel who stated there was no issue with the fan or radiator and refused a refund, I spoke to another manager who was insistent that there was no issue (if there was no issue why would I be moved to 4 rooms in the middle of the night and give myself the stress of complaining) so the refund was denied. She also made a comment re the price that I paid which was lower than other guests, on the day I booked this wasn’t the cheapest hotel in Aberdeen but was chosen for location and regardless of what you pay, you still expect to get a decent nights sleep in the hotel you are paying to use. Only positive was the breakfast.

Good Choice for us Staff were very good and helpful. Good breakfasts and great to have server come and take orders for a freshly cooked breakfast. It was very convenient to the P & J Live venue where the event we were going to was held. Nice bar and prices reasonable

The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful with requests. The room we had was small, and the bed was also small. Everything is kind of old and needs an update. The bathroom was awful as the shower was basically over the toilet and everything was soaked by the time you finished showering (toilet, vanity, floor). The bathroom was basically never dry, and if I showered that day and I could not use the toilet in socks because it's basically just a big puddle all the time.
