Customer service was excellent and good availability of car parking. Close proximity to the P&J arena. From the photos on the website I thought the rooms might be a bit outdated but on arrival it actually had a cosy and welcoming feel about it. Room was comfortable and heating was on when we arrived which was really appreciated as it was a cold evening. Room was clean and facilities were great. Bathroom was spotless and towels were white and fluffy. Plenty of tea and coffee and even some hot chocolate and biscuits. Great value for money and exceeded our expectations. Would be happy to return again.

Nice quiet room with the bonus of a hand held shower head in the ensuite (as well as fixed head if that is what you like). Staff were pleasant and helpful. Plenty of parking space. Good breakfast. We attended a private dinner party in the library one evening and we also had an excellent meal in their own restaurant the following evening.

Didnt have breakfast. Evening meal was good and tasty. Lighting in room 15 was very poor. No main lighting in bedroom. Felt quite dark. Room clean. Staff pleasant and helpful in all areas.

Great variety at breakfast. Choice of continental buffet, including overnight oats. Then, as part of the B&B deal, could also get a hot breakfast as well. Bar cosy, with a lovely open fire. Seems a popular local venue for functions. Staff cheerful and helpful despite the hotel being full and functions on. Note, no lift so be prepared to carry bags up stairs. Rooms very warm but windows do open. Area is quiet apart from the planes. They were noisy if your window is open. Bathrooms look like they have been upgraded recently and are lovely. Rooms are a little tired though have all essentials. Bed was a little hard. However, taking all this into account, I would definitely stay again. Good value for money. 10 minute dawdle up to P&J. Free parking as well.

Easy and free parking, plenty of spaces. The hotel has a rustic feel and is clean with very friendly staff and the food is excellent. Rooms are nice, yes you do here aircraft but once the airport closes it’s a very quiet area. There are some nice walks nearby too.

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.
