Leonardo Hotel Aberdeen
I had foolishly stayed at another establishment before but came back to Leonardos. It's nice and telaxing and i enjoyed a good dinner. Good access to the shopping centre and station. I was away too early for breakfast but I've had that before and there's a good choice. I'll be coming back again

Station Hotel Aberdeen
The property was hard to find at street level. It took us 45 minutes to find the hotel, then find a place to park. We were on the top floor. The room was clean and spacious but the mattress was thin, and outside noise ie people on the street and emergency vehicle sirens were heard all night. No signage ...

Love this hotel. The service is outstanding. It’s a little bit shabby chic but this adds to the charm.
