This is the first time I've ever been shown to my hotel room, opened the door, and been faced with…read morefive additional doors, each one leading to a different room in our massive, two bedroom suite. For only about US $200 a night (average, April prices, booked through hotels.com) it was all ours for two nights. Full kitchen, living room, full bath, and two bedrooms. There was a washer/dryer combo unit in our kitchen, tea and coffee on the boil all day long downstairs, and free washing soap for the laundry. Continental breakfast in the mornings was somewhere between decent and decadent, depending on your view. I ordered gluten-free toast and got about four servings worth. Ordered tea and got a pot big enough for 2-4 people. Only complaint is the beds are quite small. If you are used to sharing a double bed with your spouse it might not be so bad, but when you are used to a King size bed, expect it to feel a little cramped.

Booking was easy online and 10 minutes later I was checked in. The staff at the front desk were extremely helpful and friendly and I was offered to wait in the lounge with a cup of tea whilst I waited for someone to carry my bags to my room. I didn't realise there are actually a whole bunch of apartments adjacent to each other, also some scattered across the road. I was staying towards the back of the apartments on the second level (no elevators) so the assistance was appreciated. The accommodation itself was more than enough for one person. The executive apartment featured a bedroom, bathroom, lounge room and small kitchen with everything you'd need to create a home cooked meal. Given the late hour and duration of my stay I don't think I got to truly appreciate the space available, but nonetheless was impressed. Bed was comfortable and the blackout curtains are effective. I've given one less star because the walls are thin, and as I was falling asleep I could hear people trudging up the stairs, getting into the room above mine and I fell asleep to the sound of their muffled conversation. Breakfast is included and is a decent spread. Ample space in the dining room too. Overall a good experience, just might ask for a top floor apartment next time.

We booked to stay here on a recommendation from a friend - the place looked great online, is in a…read moregreat location and the price was really reasonable (around £80 per night for a superior one bedroom double room). The hotel is in a great location in Aberdeen as the street itself is really quiet, but it is less than a 10 minute walk to interesting bars/cafes and restaurants. We checked in without any hassles and went to drop our bags off to our room as we were running late for dinner. Our room was lovely - an apartment with separate bedroom and bathroom and living area. I had a great night sleep the first and second night (driving for 6 hours and then walking 6 miles was a help) although I didn't think the mattress was even - we think perhaps there was a bit of a lump in it as we both woke up with sore backs in the morning. The shower was a little difficult to use and the shower head actually fell on the ground and part of it broke off the first morning. Thankfully they got it sorted out for us while we were out that day. The only reason this was 4 stars rather than 5 is the breakfast. This was included in our room rate (continental only, cooked was charged per item) so we headed down around 10am on Saturday to eat. The room felt like something from a business conference. I wasn't very impressed with the continental offerings and it was mostly gone, even though breakfast didn't finish until 10.30. I tried to order a cooked breakfast for a good 10 minutes but there wasn't any staff around, so I was getting a little frustrated. I finally managed to order poached eggs on toast. We also asked for toast for the table but that never arrived. The poached eggs themselves were fine, but just not what I was hoping to start the day with. The next day we decided to skip the breakfast altogether and go somewhere else instead. Apart from the breakfast, we enjoyed our stay here and I'd return here to stay again. Other positives are that there's a private carpark at the rear of the hotel which is free, so you don't have to worry about street parking or paying. All the staff we encountered were friendly and the place overall was very clean and tidy.

The hotel itself is stunning, the architecture is an undeniable selling point and really makes the most of the granite the area is famed for. Situated a mere 10 minutes from the city centre it's surprisingly tranquil and you can easily forget the hustle and bustle here. Our room was a great size, with ample wardrobe space (although not many hangers), a decent bathroom, handy coffee machine and an insanely comfortable bed. It would have been nice to have had a bath - there was certainly room for it - however we made the most of the spa facilities instead. On the Monday afternoon we ate lunch in the front bar and it was rather disappointing. With only one member of staff responsible for serving four separate rooms it took a long time for our order to arrive and it ended up arriving at different times. The quality was a little bit disappointing considering the price however the sweet potato fries are delicious! Due to a mix up with the order (twice) we somehow ended up with five portions of chips which seemed a tad excessive. For dinner we ate in the restaurant which was a much more positive experience. The food was really brilliant and the staff were much more attentive. The only downside to our dinner was when our order arrived it was not as requested - which had already happened twice at lunch - so it would appear that there is a communication issue between the staff and the kitchen. Normally we wouldn't mind however on this occasion it was due to dietary requirements and was getting a tad tedious having to repeatedly ask for things to be remade. My boyfriend and I both had massages at the spa which we both thoroughly enjoyed. The spa therapists were attentive, pleasant and clearly knew what they were doing. Whilst we were enjoying the pool there was a four hour long children's swimming class which was less than relaxing but difficult to avoid. Overall we did enjoy the experience but felt that the service didn't quite live up to the luxury atmosphere the hotel aims to provide. They did seem to be slightly short on staff so this may be the root of the issue! Would probably return again if I found a good deal.

The food isnt a strength with the bar and restaurant having the same menu and as is standard with hotel food it isnt anything to write home about. Breakfast is self service but as nice as a standard breakfast can be. This hotel is ideal for those doing courses at Petrofac with a courtesy bus dropping you off but its easily within walking distance. Wifi isnt free which is annoying Overall the hotel is as standard as it gets nothing exceptional but the price is fair and convenience is high for those visiting petrofac or the Shell offices which are just down the hill.

You are also not far from the centre and only 10 min walk from the train station. The hotel has free parking, which seems to be hard to get in Aberdeen town centre. There are two buildings, the Hilton with the normal and premier rooms and the Platinum building, which is supposed to home the better and larger rooms. Well, the TVs are definitely large, no doubt here. Complimentary are the bathrope, the slippers and the small choice of soft drinks. You can choose to pay a small surcharge and might even get a room with a sea view (if you can call it that :-)). However, the rooms are already dear as it is. The hotel is located beside a busy road, but you can't hear the traffic. Also nearby is an ASDA, which I can definitely recommend as the room service food is less than desirable and very, very expensive with a surcharge of £5 for the room service. I had ordered a mushrooms soup and a fruit salad. Whilst the soup was served hot and was acceptable taste wise, the fruit salad was quite a disappointment. It felt like they cut up the last pieces of fruits that they could find in the kitchen topped with a scoop of fruit sorbet. In the bath I could see dark hairs spread all over it and I asked for the bath to be cleaned properly. I also asked for peppermint tea, as apparently this is not part of a general tea assortment. Overall the staff was always very friendly and attentive. All the staff is international. Breakfast is served until 11 on a weekend what is great! The assortment on hot and cold breakfast food selection is great. Lots of choice! There also is a gym, a bar and a restaurant. The reception staff is very polite and the front desk is covered 24hs. The roof in my room looked a bit dodgy at some places and some of the furnishings would need an uplift. What I liked nevertheless was the massive bed in which easily 3 people could sleep in :-) Would I be back to this hotel? Maybe.

"Apologies for the weather today...would you like an umbrella?" "Will you be joining us for dinner tonight?" Upon arrival, the person behind the counter checked me in but wasn't completely confident about the WiFi because in her words "I don't usually work at the counter, I'm the chef." And I found out later her cuisine is amazing! For dinner I enjoyed flawless salmon with carrots and snap peas followed by the best homemade cheesecake. Later I was to learn that this is one of the most popular (read best) restaurants in Inverurie. When I return to Scotland I will stay not in Aberdeen as a base, but rather in Inverurie.
