Top Grampian Transport Museum Hotel Reviews

Balmoral Arms

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful, cosy place to stay. Staff were super friendly and the lobby, guest areas and pub and restaurant were beautiful and welcoming. I would definitely stay again!"

Ardoe House Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We started off with a lovely afternoon tea, then checked into our lovely and spacious room. We were delighted to find that it had a fridge for us to keep our fizz chilled. We then had a lovely walk around the hotel grounds and went for a bar dinner. The menu was extensive and well priced. The hotel was buzzing, which we didn’t expect for a Sunday night, so great atmosphere. Would highly recommend!"

Banchory Lodge Hotel

8/10 Good

"Welcoming staff and a lovely clean hotel. The room had everything we required. The bathroom was small, which was okay, but there were a few things which needed addressing. The mirror was chipped and the paintwork near the bath needed attention. The restaurant is lovely, although the pudding had a hair cooked into the biscuit. The grounds of the hotel are lovely. Very pretty and the car park was good as we arrived with a trailer (confirmed this was allowed prior to booking) there was plenty of room to park. A lovely hotel, after 12 hours of travelling it was a relief to check into such a lovely place. A place we will defiantly be retuning to!"

Village Hotel Aberdeen

6/10 Okay

"We arrived just before 9:00pm and went to check in. No welcome! The guy on reception barely looked up when we said we want to check in. He stared at his screen for what seemed to be about 5 minutes then he left to get another person to help him. She never acknowledged us - just spoke briefly to the guy then he finally gave us the room key. He did offer two keys which was good. He never offered any breakfast information or car park information. When we asked about the parking he then asked for the car registration but still didn't tell us what the payment arrangements were. On our way to the room we noticed that the corridors had what seemed to be an effluent smell disguised by air freshner. Following days the smell was gone. Once we got to the room we noticed that there was only one towel. My wife went back to reception to ask for one where she was told " I can't leave the desk" - someone will be up later. It never came and I had to go to reception and ask again in the morning which was delivered promptly. This hotel is very busy and noisy as it has sports bars, a public gym and pool. Bangs and thumps start from the gym below from about 5:30am until about 10:30pm. There is loud music coming from the bar. If you open the bedroom window when you wake up all you hear is music and shouting from the gym classes below. The beds are comfortable. The bathroom could be brighter. The side of the WC is very close to the wall so a bit cramped. We will not be staying again."

Thainstone House

4/10 Poor

"We arrived at Thainstone Hotel on Saturday late afternoon . We asked to book our meal for supper as we were going to a show just across from hotel , as the show starts at 7.30 , we needed to book a meal a bit earlier , the receptionist said we can’t serve meals till 7.30 as there is a wedding in process. She said she will ask the chef but he said no . Even a sandwich would b better than nothing , but no . She said she couldn’t even offer a bag of crisps as they hadn’t any of them either..So we had no supper. This stay was supposed to be a special treat as we had just had our 47th wedding anniversary. In the morning we were supposed to have showers , I put on the shower , but or the time I got the right temperature the bottom was full of water and black stuff was coming out of drain , so that was no shower for us both . On the good side breakfast was really good . But for £163.99 and 4 Star we was extremely disappointed ."

Strathburn Hotel Inverurie by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The Strathburn Hotel was the ideal venue for our surprise birthday gathering. The hotel is old style but comfortable, clean and warm with a quiet lounge area beside the reception where we sat and chatted. All the staff were both efficient and friendly - Nicki( booking), Charlie and a very helpful Polish lady. The food was good, though the menu fairly limited especially for gluten free choices. The chef had made fresh gluten free rolls one night - the best I've ever tasted and the Thai curry was fantastic. For other gluten free people The Garioch Fish Bar just along the road does lovely gluten free fish and chips too."
