Top Banchory Hotel Reviews

The Aberdeen Dyce Hotel

The Aberdeen Dyce Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel doesn’t look like much from the outside but is lovely on the inside! Rooms are a good size, beds super comfy and the staff are so friendly and welcoming and really go out of their way to help you, especially the staff in the breakfast room. The pool and leisure area are great. Our only (very minor) complaints were that you have to book slots to use the pool and it fills up quickly at busy times, so get in and book as soon as you arrive! Also, there was an event on one of the nights we were staying so it meant the car park was very busy and we couldn’t find a space to park. We had to abandon the car on double yellows and hope for the best! Fortunately, a space came up later and we were able to move the car. Other than that, I would highly recommend and will stay again!"

The Aberdeen Altens Hotel

8/10 Good
"I booked a last minute trip on the day for my mum and I. When we arrived, I asked if there was a possibility of having a walk in shower as my I’m has just had a knee op. Unfortunately we were advised there were only 2 rooms that have an accessible shower. We were then allocated room 226 which was one of the furthest rooms from the lift. I found this frustrating after just advising about my mums walking difficulties and would have appreciated a room with a shorter walk for her. We used the pool and jacuzzi that evening but couldn’t get booked in for the following morning. We had a meal in the restaurant which was lovely however breakfast was a let down due to food not being replenished quickly and the water in the jug that holds hot water for tea not being hot enough."
