Real potential, staff very nice.

Late booking this. Great price and hotel seems nice enough. Lacking any atmosphere, I know this hotel has new owners however it could be made great. Room cold on arrival though with no heating on. Hotel has real potential but seemed very quiet despite the spectra festival.

Great location, cleaning could be improved.

Hotel in great location, staff very friendly and helpful. Stayed in a standard double room which was huge! Room however was showing signs of quite a bit of wear and tear. Cleaning could be improved a bit, cobweb hanging from ceiling light, bits on the carpet that hadn’t been hoovered, false eyelashes left in bathroom bin from previous customer. Had a cooked veggie breakfast which was cooked to order and ok, but took a very long time to arrive.

NOT to recommend, pure ignorance from the hotel

Upon arrival, we were informed that the warm water tank had broken...since a week ago. They chose not to tell us about it until we stepped in and wanted to check-in. We were also told by a citizen of Aberdeen that the hotel is located in a unsafe and rough area.

Disappointing breakfast

Hotel rooms was OK. Really cold light from roof spot lighting. Hotel breakfast was disappointing. It did not open until 0730. No hot meals. Simple toast and some jam. Milk or yoghurt and cereal. And loud music in the breakfast room.

Wouldn’t go back

Booked a suite but it was more of a family room split in half. No fridge. Pillows rubbish. Awake most of the night with what I’m assuming was plumbing problems. The noice from the pipes was horrendous.

Hot and tired room

Room is hotter than death. Aircon unit doesn't blow cold air and there is no opening window. Clearly an ongoing issue as there is a fan in the room. The room was clearly built and setup to a high standard but not maintained as the bathroom walls are chipped and gouged.

Very disappointing

I stayed 2 nights after a 16 hour journey to get there. I was offered the opportunity to checkout and credited £25 for the inconvenience of having no hot water for both nights, due to their boiler blowing. The room was grubby with marks all over the walls and carpets, mould and grime around the shower and a strange stain on the throw for the bed. Staff were lovely but working with some exceptional circumstances this week.

Bad Experience

Room was dreadful, bashed woodwork, lighting and furniture. Carpet and walls filthy, could not have stayed and asked to be moved. New room was marginally better but no hot water in the morning to shower! Would definitely never stay in this hotel again and would not recommend it to anyone. Really very disappointed.

Below 3 stars

Booked as it said 4 stairs and nice pictures of rooms on the site. This was maybe years ago! The rooms needs refurbishment. Room -dark and it was this odd one with roof windows so no view at all -covered with bird increments /I know it is city of seagulls/ but it affects overall experience/ -carpet have not seen vacuum cleaner for while. - 2 big stains on the walls Bed - everybody knows that the pilows for decor are never cleaned so that I always put on side and the 1 pillow for person to sleep - despite folding it did not provide enough comfort to rest head. Just flat pillow. No headboard for the bed. So literally nothing else than wall provide you support to watch the TV. Bathroom was partially the only thing what I liked except the shower drain which was opened.No holder for shampoo. It was just metal ring which did not fit with size of provided shampoo bottles. I pressumed they changed brand of supplier of these products and therefore it does not fit anymore. The small bottles - one was half used and we had twice body lotion. That means somebody let it there. It should be always uniformed if you label hotel as 4 stars. Lastly towels different way rolled up. 2 spare ones in cupboard - first had stain not sure what it was and second holes. Service from the team was good You can borrow iron and the board - worth to occasionally wash that board cover. It was stained. I would not iron a white shirt on it. Staff booked us taxi.

Staff were efficient and helpful. Good central location and competitive price. However, for a 4* hotel, it is very run down. Curtains in the room faling down, old decor, tired looking. All a bit stale. Breakfast was decent, but no hot plates to keep cooked breakfast warm, so expect it to be luke warm or cold.

Nice staff but misses the standard for 4* hotel

Entrance and reception were very pleasant although an issue with room key meant a trip back to reception. I had paid or breakfast and disappointed with the offer. Not worth the additional charge which was a rather poor continental selection. I’d wouldn’t have again but thought the room was good value.

Clean,great location but could do with maintenance

Clean and lovely staff but a little run down in places. Windows dirty but it didn’t matter because the view wasn’t great. The 1st room we were offered we were told not to shut the toilet door or we would be locked in so we opted for another room. The staff were very friendly and so helpful so can’t fault that at all. Location is perfect for a city break.

Okay but don't believe the photos!

The entrance was uninspiring but once inside the two security doors the interior was fine. The bedroom was spacious, reasonably equipped with a large bathroom and good shower. Unfortunately two of the light shades were badly damaged and there was a hole in the bathroom wall where the toilet roll holder used to be. Only continental breakfast (okay) no real bar or restaurant available. The outside areas would have been nice if they had been weed free and clean. The photos on line bear no resemblance to reality - this is currently a tired three star hotel in a great location.
