Holiday Inn Express Aberdeen City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"The bathroom door would not close and latch."

Station Hotel Aberdeen

4/10 Poor

"Smelled of perfume trying to hide fish smell and mildew smell as soon as you walk into the hotel. Overwhelming fish smell from the restaurant. The elevator and all of the carpet smelled like someone was walking around constantly spraying cologne. Had a headache the entire time. The room was clean however they put us in a room with a slanted ceiling my husband who is 6 foot three had to sit down to use the toilet to urinate because the toilet was on the wall that was slanted. It is in an excellent location and the outside of the building is beautiful. I do not recommend the restaurant. We ordered fish and chips and a pizza. The pizza tasted like it was frozen from the convenience store. The fish and chips were decent, but not great. We did enjoy the afternoon, high tea but it wasn’t spectacular just decent. Never got down to breakfast just because the smell was very offputting. "

Residence Inn by Marriott Aberdeen

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect hotel to stay in while in Aberdeen. The staff were very helpful with any questions we had. The location is ideal to seeing the city, while also within walking distance to the train station. The continental breakfast was better than other hotel breakfasts that required payment. Overall, can't recommend this hotel enough for travelers."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Old Aberdeen?

The best time to visit Old Aberdeen is during the late spring and summer months, specifically from May to September, when the weather is generally mildest and the days are longer.

During this period, you'll experience the most pleasant conditions for exploring the university campus and its historic buildings, such as King's College and its iconic Crown Tower, or taking a stroll through the Cruickshank Botanic Garden. The longer daylight hours also mean more time to enjoy outdoor activities and the city's green spaces.

For those interested in cultural events and a lively option, August is particularly good as it often coincides with various festivals and events in the wider Aberdeen area, making it a great time for couples to enjoy the local scene. The university grounds are also less crowded with students, offering a more relaxed experience.

Solo travellers who appreciate mild weather and fewer crowds might prefer May or early June.
