Would not go back

Arrived and waited a long time for reception - attitude was less than friendly - very abrupt. Hallways to room smelled musty. Room was like an oven and windows didn’t open. It did have fan but very noisy and unable to sleep with it on. Decor very tired and skirting boards dirty. Asked if possible for earlier breakfast, abruptly dismissed

Tired Old Hotel

This is an old tired hotel. Although the staff was pleasant to deal with, the hotel did not meet our expectations. The "chef" was out sick during our entire stay (3 days) so we could not eat at the hotel, or get breakfast there. Not that big of a deal since there are other options close by, but still disappointing. We were in a room where the shower drain was clogged, and seeing how short staffed they were, we just unclogged the shower drain ourselves (yes I had tools with me on holiday). Since we have stayed at this hotel in the past and enjoyed it, we figured we'd give it another go. But frankly I would suggest you look for other accommodation if you are staying in Banchory.

Give it a chance.

After booking and paying found some scary reviews but we didn’t experience any of them. B/fast value £12 each, couldn’t finish mine, good coffee. Bar service good, busy outside seating area. Some noise o/n but to be expected as we were overlooking the High street. Could do with a little attention to detail in room, paper peeling from ceiling, curtains off track in few places. Parking off street available when checking in

Dodgy Hotel

I booked 3 rooms for attending my son’s wedding. The hotel contacted us 5 days before check in and ask us to cancel the rooms due to over booking. One of my son cancelled and moved to another hotel. I did not. The hotel then cancelled my room 2 days before check in and then said to Hotel.com that I cancelled the room! I had no choice but booked a room elsewhere but cost me a lot of more due to last minute booking.The hotel is not honest. Will not stay again in future
