“Very nice Hotel with a great breakfast”
Setup in the bathroom was not too practical. Towel rack hung over the toilet, making it a bit hard to reach. Also the toilet flush was behind the toilet seat, making it difficult to flush without standing up.

“An exceptional stay in a beautiful Hotel”
We travelled to Aberdeen for a long weekend at this fabulous Hotel. There was a very welcoming Reception, and the hotel boasts a Lounge with roaring open fire and 2 restaurants. On arriving at the Hotel, the check in was simple and we had our bags taken up to our room. The room itself was faultless … beautiful décor, large comfy bed and large bathroom with walk in shower. There was complimentary fruit, biscuit and luxury tea/coffee/hot chocolate plus milk and water in a fridge. We had a meal in the Skylark restaurant on our first evening and the service/food was second to none. There was a varied menu which was well presented, and the service of the staff was exceptional. There is another restaurant – the Conservatory – which we did not use but the menu here was less varied but still exceptional. We had our breakfast on the Conservatory Restaurant and there was a wide variety of continental food, juices, cereal and toast. There were also breakfast items that could be made to order, and these were delicious and very well presents. Again, the staff waiting on the tables were faultless and attended to whatever you required. The hotel itself is in its own grounds on the outskirts of Aberdeen very close to main roads/bypass for accessibility. We ventured into Aberdeen by Taxi and was only a 10 min ride. There is a spa onsite also, but we did not use this facility. On the whole an exceptional experience and we will definitely be back.

“A jewel in Aberdeen”
The staff were the highlight for us. All of the little things that might seem like nothing all add up to fantastic service. Nothing was too much trouble for any of them. Location is great, close to the Deeside Line walking/cycling path, 40 minutes walk into the city centre and close to Royal Deeside. The property itself is very comfortable and has held onto its authenticity and family feel.
