Checked in by a really friendly gentleman on Sunday evening. Gave us a free upgrade and the room had a stunning view of Union Terrace Gardens. The room itself was very small and some weird things like only one bedside cabinet, and the shower was basic. Definitely trying to save water with the low pressure. Bar is slightly pricey but was fine.
Was only in town for a night. Very central and convenient for a quick look around town. Check in quick and efficient. Rooms have all you need, and I do like older hotels with a bit of character. There's parking nearby in a square which wasn't busy so could find a place.
Les chambres et les matelas sont désuets et la chambre est très chaude malgré une température fraîche à l’extérieur. Demeure proche de la gare de train et prix acceptable.
Service was wonderful, they were so accommodating and kind. Breakfast was amazing and the daily chef-made breads were 5-star! A great location, beautiful park and easy access to city centre.

This must have been an impressive building some time ago but, now requires refurbishment e.g. new carpets, paint ..
The room was comfortable and clean. Plenty of hot water! With a choice of bath or shower. The reeption staff were very welcoming and courteous. I had an evening meal and was impressed that there was a choice of two vegan options. Breakfast was buffet style andample, with fresh fruit a bonus. I had one of the best night's sleep I've had for a while. Thank you

This is a very old hotel being restored. It was in a great location. The room was comfortable and clean. However there were no written instructions on how to use central heating, etc in the room, or that there were safety alarms that could be set off. ( to which staff always responded) Breakfast was fabulous as was the restaurant food. Some of the staff were helpful, some rude and abrupt so one can’t generalise.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast, and it was refreshing to have a refrigerator in the room. It's an older building so the floors aren't exactly level, but that didn't bother me. Nice location. Would stay here again.
