“Excellent breakfast in Aberdeen”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011
21
people found this review helpful

Pat and Roger did all possible to make our stay (5 persons) during the exhibition in Aberdeen worthwhile. We all enjoyed our stay and especially the breakfast (all kinds of fruit and a large choice of egg platters etc.) Can not be beaten by any hotel. As I made an error in reserving rooms I had to sleep on an airbed in the living room for 1 night (all the hotels etc. were fully booked during the exhibition time). So it was comfy and relaxing. A great place to stay for a short period visiting Scotland.

Room Tip: Look at the website for pictures of the rooms.

Stayed here recently and I couldn’t recommend it more. The staff are helpful and very friendly, the accommodation is clean and the bed was very comfortable. A hearty breakfast is provided in the morning, traditional English and other hot foods and if that’s not for you a whole range of fruits, cereals, and yoghurt is available. Lovely place would definitely stay again!!

“Nightmare Experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2011

person found this review helpful

I booked online for two nights ensuite single room. I had paid extra for this as I was traveling alone for business. However, when I arrived I was given a single standard with a shared bathroom. I explained to the lady that escorted me to the room that this was incorrect. She told me that the booking agent had made a mistake and it wasn't her fault. I was quite disturbed as I had travelled a distance. She abruptly implied "take it or leave it" and left the room in disgust. She was quite rude, calloused, and a "chip on the shoulder." Quite unapologetic. Fortnately the gentleman there made a phone call to find other suitable accomodations for me. However, this was only done after I'd encountered a not so friendly verbal exchange from his counterpart. I've travelled extensively in the UK, especially Scotland, and this has been my worst encounter at any place of stay.

Room Tip: Not at very customer friendly

“Recommend this accomodation”

This guesthouse was great value. Absolutely superb breakfasts - the choice and quality better than many restaurants. Plus early bird breakfast great for the traveller who wants to get on the move. Decor a little dated but very clean and tidy. Room had well appointed en-suite. Only 20 minutes walk with suitcases from centre of city plus on the bus route.Very close to old Aberdeen and the University. Friendly hosts with great on line feedback when we needed to clarify arrival time and helpful advice on local features. Only negative was road noise but earplugs sorted that out.
