The hotel offers lovely rooms with absolutely everything you could need, including fresh milk for tea and coffee and toiletries, though the air might feel stuffy at times. The service was friendly and helpful overall, with the parking behind the building being an excellent bonus for a central Aberdeen location. The location is convenient for city center activities, but be prepared for the early wake-up calls from raucous herring gulls. The dining experience was good value, with a generous hot buffet and a great selection of fresh options. The facilities were excellent, with a separate dining building enhancing the overall experience.
