Poor service in the restaurant, coupled with cramped room. Food was expensive even for Aberdeen. Poor service continued into the bar with waits of 10 mins for staff to turn up. The hotel is close to the flight path of Aberdeen Airport and can be noisy from early on. Better available

Often overlooked as a transit hotel for middle management heading offshore, this hotel has a comfortable bar area and a decent restuarant, bistro booth style. The sports on the TV in the bar loses it a star as it so intrusive, The steaks are spectacular and worth a special visit, ask for the chefs 'special' onion rings! It's not fine... More

Very exspensive considering wifi is not included in the price. Considering almost all hotels have free wifi these days this hotel is behind the times - sort it out. The food is good and service is average to below par with similar priced venues (ordered a risotto which turned up cold and a beer had more floaters in than the... More

Stayed for just one night on business after a gap of 2 years. Good location close to airport and Dyce businesses. Clean comfortable rooms which have been refurbished. Only problem was that Aberdeen was enjoying an unusually warm day so that my room was uncomfortably hot as the central heating was still on. Opened window to get some air into... More

Nothing is too much trouble for the staff here! They are keen to please and so helpful! We invited local fiends to meet us in the restaurant for dinner and we were not disappointed! There was so much to choose from on the menu and I would also recommend any special dishes of the day!!! The rooms are clean and... More

Stayed here on business, good location and close to the airport (approx 3 miles). Reception were very helpful and very efficient on check-in and check-out. The rooms were very clean, and warm, despite it being quite snowy and very chilly outside. Really good food with a buffet style Continental breakfast, but also with a superb choice of hot food available.... More

My husband Dave and I return here quite a lot and got married here as well. So for his birthday we decided to come back again. Close to home but a nice break. Our room was stunning. Beautifully refurbished, a nice little livingroom area off of the bedroom, the bathroom had been turned into a wet room. Mirrored wardrobe doors.... More

A few pros and cons exist with this hotel. The pros are that it is reasonably close to the airport (3 or 4 miles), good and helpful reception, clean rooms, excellent food and rates that are not as extortionate as other Aberdeen hotels. The cons are poor wifi, a very poor service in the bar, some of the rooms can... More
