About this property

The Tower: Iconic Church Penthouse with Sauna & Roof Terrace

Stay in Aberdeen's most iconic penthouse: a 200-year-old church tower given a six-figure restoration and featured in the Press and Journal. Spread over five floors and 3,000 sq ft in the heart of the West End, it is crowned by a tower room with 360° panoramic views across the city.

The Tower has three bedrooms – a large master with an oak king-size bed, a double and a twin – and three bathrooms, including a family bathroom with a cast-iron roll-top bath. There's a private sauna and shower room, a large living space with custom carpenter-built seating, a designer open-plan kitchen, dining for six and a roof terrace with outdoor seating.

Working away? There's a dedicated work bar in the kitchen, the tower room makes a lovely place to work with a view, and there's fast wifi throughout. Invoices are available for business stays. Travelling with family? A travel cot, board games, puzzles, chess and books are provided.

On arrival, enjoy a Scottish welcome of wine, local treats and, of course, Irn-Bru.

Festive stays: from 1 December to 5 January the Tower is decorated for the festive season, with a Christmas tree and seasonal touches throughout.

The West End puts you moments from Aberdeen's best bars, restaurants and boutiques, five minutes' walk from Union Street, and only 12 miles from Trump International Golf Links.

Please note: the entrance is up five flights of stairs, so the Tower isn't suitable for guests with limited mobility. Arriving early or leaving late? Luggage drop-off is available on request.
