Hotel nice and clean with very friendly and helpful staff. Limited hotel parking so book that in advance, but there is a good multi-story car park just 100 yards away which is reasonably priced if there is no space at the hotel.

Radiator impressive how quickly it heated the room. Booked car parking space calling reception. Close to tesco, cafe, deli, spoons. Great location. Will stay again.

Katherine

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Staff were excellent and always very friendly and willing to help. The room could do with a bit of a refresh, particularly the bathroom (a fair bit of mold and staining on the walls) but it was functional. Breakfast was disappointing. The tables felt crammed in and were difficult to navigate at times and the selection was limited. Bacon was like cardboard every day. Parking was decent value and our space was always available however the spaces have big pillars in them and not much room to negotiate so larger vehicles be aware of this. There is parking just down the road as well. Room facilities were good, with a fan, iron, TV and plenty of clean towels.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Hotel was nice with a good breakfast buffet. Room was a nice size and was quiet. The only issue I had was with parking. The hotel had limited parking space so I ended up parking at a municipal garage about a block away. Downtown Aberdeen was going through a lot of renewal and did not have the shopping that I wanted.
