Hotels With Breakfast in Aberdeenshire, United Kingdom

My trip was totally ruined by the end/check out. Upon checking out they asked me to settle a £36 bill. I queried this as the previous night I ate in the Luna Dome but had paid the bill after my meal. I was advised by the receptionist that the drinks bill related to my first night's stay, where 3 drinks were ordered in the Titan Bar, then shoved a signed receipt in my face. The signature was not mine but it did have the same surname as my mum, who was also present for my weekend stay. It definitely was NOT my mum's signature but the receptionist clearly did not believe me, so as embarrassing as the whole situation was, with a queue gathering behind me, I had to bring my mum into reception to explain. My mum explained that she had not been in the Titan Bar, never mind order £36 worth of drinks! We were experiencing a chilled out weekend away with my 2 year old daughter, not on a boozy weekend. When queried why the bill was stapled to our room number, we were advised that due to the hotel being cashless, patrons simply sign a receipt and staff match it too guests who stay surnames! What!? So you merely play snap with bills and patrons surnames? If your a Smith/Jones, good luck, dread to think how many bills you'll be hit with. What was a lovely weekend away, was ruined in the last 5 minutes.

Stayed here for a week in a one bedroom suite, plenty room for the two of us. Small kitchenette but enough to prepare breakfast, some lunches and easy suppers. Only very small gripe is there are no coat hooks to hang wet jackets . Great to be able to cast our Netflix etc from our iPad to the TV . The pool area is lovely and it was generally quiet . Only ate in the restaurant once, it was ok but quality of food could be better. Plenty lovely places to eat in the surrounding area including The Highlander Bakehouse, Rothesay Rooms and don’t miss a treat of dinner at the Darroch Learg ( you can walk easily to it) . Room was only cleaned once during our stay. Laundry room with good size washers and dryers, these are free. The snow arrived whilst we were there but the ground staff worked hard to clear paths and carpark. The reception also supplied ice scrapers and de-icer if you’ve forgotten to take. Overall a comfortable stay and plenty to do in the area.

Great wee overnight stay so my daughter and I could go to Aberdeen Uni's open day. Handy location just off the motorway, and a short drive into Aberdeen centre. We ate dinner at the Indian Brasserie across the road, which was very nice, and the hotel breakfast was standard fare and a reasonable choice. Would recommend the hotel for a stay out with the hustle and bustle of the city- parking right outside the door, and a park and ride facility a short drive from the hotel. Staff were helpful and pleasant, too. Checking in was straightforward, and so was check out. Would return if I needed to visit Aberdeen in the future.

2nd time i have visited only to be let down. I only take a mixed grill when I’m there and today of all days which is my birthday was again let down. Came in and the waitress made a comment regarding my child which I thought was rude and also asked us our drinks to which we ordered while looking at the menu. After we decided she came back and asked what we would like to order and when I asked for the large mixed grill she informed us that there was no grill things or any burgers. She then stated that she should have informed us this before we ordered our drinks and forgot as she has had a busy day. Didn’t look that busy to be honest since we were 5 of probably only 3 others in the building. Total let down and don’t think we will be back unless they have food in and also attitude changes towards kids! This was for a birthday dinner and we left disgusted without ordering anything.

This is an incredible Lodge. We are spending 3 days here and our room is beautiful. Very very chic! The staff are super friendly. The property sits on the river last night. We had the most amazing cocktails, a negroni and a French martini. We sat on a swing for two and looked at the gorgeous River sipping our drinks before dinner. The lodge is an all-in-one package. It has everything you need. Including wonderful locally sourced food. The breakfast is included and it is scrumptious

Enjoyed my 2 night stay and everything was excellent and good service from my host. Will be booking again in this hotel.

What a gem! Not a beachside but we didn't pay for that. Value for money was unbelievable! For what we paid and the location, we are totally smitten. Such an inviting and convivial host. The welcoming fare was astonishing. A fridge full of fresh fruit and other treats. [Even 2x mini bottles of wine as great stay bon homme.] Nadarra wine & food bar (less than a 5 min walk was an unexpected surprise. Just nothing but a great inspirational upgrade to our vision of what this coast was from our memories. 2024 ”Top Notch” stay over following nostalgia and family historic origins. Not to be missed! [BTW I have no connections to the owner of this B&B or the newly opened Nadarra restaurant. & no renumeration for posting this. MM

Wowee what a lovely place to stay. This is a charming hotel with plentiful of places to sit back in comfort and enjoy the peace and quiet. Caters for the slightly older guest though don't let this put you off. The staff minus one (rude and non people skilled Polish lady) are some of the best and are really down to earth and friendly. The room I had was immaculate and the bed very comfortable. Food is prepared by an amazing chef who goes far and beyond to bring you some lovely meals freshly prepared. This hotel is on the return list for the future

Returned to Thainstone House for a long weekend with key aim to relax, enjoy surroundings, have time in the Spa plus taste well prepared foods and sample various whisky's - all aspects fully achieved !!! From Emma at Reception, general manageress Natalie to Rachel in the Spa area, the staff are really friendly and clearly make an effort to ensure anyone staying feels relaxed. Many are learning their trade within the hospitality sector so as hotel was particularly busy, could benefit from having several additional members of staff to assist at breakfast, evening meal times or in the bar area. Room was spacious and bed very comfy - nice touch of offering Tunnocks tea cakes & wafers to have with a cuppa !! Enjoyed a couple of massages which were excellent, pool and Spa area ideal with no rush or time limit. With sun shinning, trees in full autumn colours, wildlife all around - what is there not to enjoy. Thank you and will definitely be back soon.

A Fairytale Wedding at the Britannia Waterside Hotel Our wedding at the Britannia Waterside Hotel was nothing short of a fairytale. The riverside views, luxurious accommodations, and unparalleled service made for an unforgettable day, exceeding our highest expectations. The allure of the Britannia Waterside Hotel is not just its beautiful location, but also the extraordinary team that works behind the scenes to create magic. At the helm of this team is James Forbes, whose dedication and passion were evident throughout our entire wedding planning process. James was more than a wedding coordinator; he was a confidant, a guide, and a friend. He addressed every one of our concerns with patience and provided invaluable advice that helped us make the right choices. The staff, under James's leadership, was phenomenal. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care for our special day was unmatched. Every little detail, from the placement of decorations to the timing of events, was executed perfectly, making our day flow seamlessly. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was the best day of our lives. The culinary team outdid themselves with an exquisite menu that catered to a variety of dietary preferences. Each dish was beautifully presented and tasted as wonderful as it looked. Many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding food they had ever tasted. The accommodation at the Britannia Waterside Hotel was indeed very comfortable. The rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated, and offered stunning views of the waterside. Waking and having breakfast with the view of the river Ugie as a newly married couple was a delightful experience that added to the magic of our wedding. In conclusion, our experience at the Britannia Waterside Hotel was truly extraordinary. We owe a large part of our perfect wedding day to James Forbes and the fantastic staff. We highly recommend the Britannia Waterside Hotel to anyone planning their wedding. It's not just a venue, but a place where dreams are brought to life.

The employees were kind. Location requirements are perfect. The beds are comfortable and give you a good night's sleep. I used it on a business trip, but the price was good.
