All is perfect! We loved all! My kids enjoyed the swimming pool, and I really loved the gluten free food! For me the Hunting chicken is the best Aberdeen’s hunting chicken (yes, eat the similar food in other differents places in Aberdeen! But, of the hotel restaurant is the best!).

Liked: Cleanliness
Staff at check in were courteous and helpfull. Room was clean but lacked some of the amenities you would expect from a 4 star hotel. No fridge or water. Slippers were advertised as part of the room but were not provided. Having to request room upkeep on the previous day was a strange idea. Also we were very surprised at having to pay extra for parking, which was not mentioned in the booking page.

Always good, BUT just a few things cropping up in the restaurant 1. The fish and chips (which my colleague had) was very disappointing. The fish was very thin/small. It looked like it came from a packet from the supermarket freezer - same size 2. The breakfast coffee is shocking. Serving pre-brewed coffee in a pump thermos flask, is old school. Surely, in 2026, decent coffee should be available the supermarket
