The Central location of the Holiday Inn Express is ideal, it is a clean and well run establishment. On the down side is that it can be a bit noisy in the front bedrooms, the double edged sword of being in a central location I suppose, but if you feel a little peckish the all-night bakery over the street is...

Stayed here for a week whilst working out of Aberdeen. The access to Aberdeen nighlife is excellent and the commute out of Aberdeen is good. Hotel parking is limited but there is a multi-storey next door for £12 per day. Breakfast is the usual Express style but there is a reasonable bar and the rooms are everything you need. Would...

We stayed at this hotel for one night while travelling around Scotland. They are a good 5-10 minute walk to where all the shops are. Union St is about 30 seconds away. Good parking facilities under the building, quiet accomodation, good breakfast, pub area, who could need anything more! Would happily stay here again. Thanks very much!

This Holiday Inn Express is exactly what you expect of the brand - well maintained, basic and effective. The room was spacious, the furniture modern and everything worked. The internet was free and fast, the lift was large, the price I paid was fair. I left a happy customer. It's not the Four Seasons in terms of facilities, but it... More

This is a pretty basic hotel and I stayed here a few years ago. If all you want is a basic night then no problem. However, for me personally, I need a decent iron and relatively robust Internet, so I can work effectively while on the road. At the hotel, women travelers, be aware that there are no irons in...

Thanks for your review Stephen, I'm very glad you enjoyed your visit.
