    Pros +

    • completely satisfied. Excellent experience. Wish we could have stayed longer!
    • Excellent facilities, spacious comfortable rooms and ideal location.
    • The suite was spacious and comfortable

    Cons -

    • The views from suite 16 were terrible. There was no bath. A bath is important to me. On asking at reception it is disappointing to hear that a suite and a bath cannot be requested in advance.
    • Booking out by 10 am was a bit early
    • The bar / diner was very quiet in the evenings. Perhaps, at Christmas, some live music could be good.

    A beautiful, well kept hotel, with wonderful spa and pool. Staff really helpful. Location good for exploring Deeside.

    The bar / diner was very quiet in the evenings. Perhaps, at Christmas, some live music could be good.

    8CarlPosted on: 12-3-2025

    Overall good stay, suite was spacious and facilities in suite really good, staff happy and helpful

    Although a high quality hotel, food cost was a little higher than expected and the breakfast was nice but a little over priced

    10AndrewPosted on: 11-12-2025

    The swimming pool and leisure facilities were great, and the food was excellent in the restaurant.Staff were very helpful and friendly

    8GaryPosted on: 11-9-2025

    Nice hotel, very convenient and well priced

    Service in the lounge was slow

    4DaPosted on: 10-25-2025

    Excellent location and facilities.

    Acoustic separation between our room and the room above was very poor - we could hear every footstep and we were unable to sleep.Restaurant staff were rude when we tried to make a dinner booking.

    10NeilPosted on: 10-17-2025

    Lovely relaxing break in a junior suite. Food and service was very good in the brasserie/lounge.Enjoyed the leisure facilities albeit probably too many children in the main swimming pool at the time we visited.

    10LyndaPosted on: 10-5-2025

    Lots of facilities and a town nearby for shopping

    The spa was never open. Unable to book any treatments

    4ElizabethPosted on: 8-24-2025

    Space was very nice.

    The suite was very hot, stuffy and difficult to cool down we were given a fan which helped a bit. The room was noisy from a large extractor fan above the swimming pool. We did not feel it was value for money.

    5WilmaPosted on: 8-21-2025

    The location

    Poor value for money. Would have expected breakfast to be included in the price and for the price of the suite, there should have been robes and slippers, biscuits and bottled water included. The breakfast was over priced and it wasn’t a normal Scottish breakfast choice.

    6IoanaPosted on: 8-19-2025

    Very spacious room

    The gave us a room without a balcony although in the pictures of the room we reserved there was clearly a balcony. Our room was at the end of the property, over a hangar of some sort, where all the AC and vents pipes were …super noisy. When asked why was this room allocated to us, although we paid extra for premium and a level 3 on booking, they just said is their last room and can’t do anything about it.Not a single water bottle in the room, no slippers or bathrobe. We arrived late and the property is clearly in the middle of nowhere, at least a small bottle of water for the extravagant price they could have done.

    Amazing rooms and locationGood restaurant

    Excessive price/quality ratio

    7JackiePosted on: 7-9-2025

    Location, accommodation was a bit of luxury

    It was a lot of money for room only - breakfast and evening meal was included last time we stayed

    9JanicePosted on: 6-29-2025

    Very nice, well-appointed accommodation. Beautiful grounds.Leisure facilities were very good.

    The only thing that couldn't be helped was the suite was extremely hot. The windows for safety reasons could only be opened a fraction. Cooler air couldn't flow into the rooms. An electric fan was provided, but it couldn't cool the rooms down. Sleeping was impossible.

    10NancyPosted on: 6-3-2025

    We liked the design of the room, the great bathrooms, the amenities, the restaurants. The location was excellent for visiting Balmoral.

    8EunicePosted on: 5-18-2025

    Lovely interior and allTo a high standard. Excellent facilities and lovely studio room. Staff were all excellent, attentive and friendly

    I didn’t think the food was as good as it could have been.

    8ColinPosted on: 4-30-2025

    Leisure facilities were very good. Junior suite with lounge and kitchenette made stay very enjoyable.

    Safe was faulty when we arrived,maintenance fixed problem only for the safe to break down again on day two of our stay.Just went without a safe for the remainder of our stay.
