Hotels Near Ferryhill Railway Heritage Trust in Aberdeen

Cleaning staff would wake me up early in the morning even though I put out the do not disturb sign, they also have an eco cleaning policy so if you don’t need your room cleaned and you have put out the sign they should not be trying to enter. They were very rude and aggressive, they would continuously bang on the door so the whole room would shake and items would fall from shelves. Even after telling them I do not need my room cleaned today and please do not disturb me they would come back a couple hours later and do it again. Furthermore, due to this behaviour I took it upon myself to inform reception if I had any important phone calls that I had to take privately between 9-3 so that I would not be disturbed by the cleaners during my private calls and also used their texting service to make sure it was in writing to not clean my room during the times I required privacy. The cleaners would ONLY try to enter the room in the hours I stated I needed privacy. One day I only needed privacy between 2-3pm and they came in at 2:10 and spent a good 15 minutes arguing with me. I even offered to take my call elsewhere if they could provide a private area so they could clean the room but this was refused. The lack of privacy and the fact issues happened with the cleaners on a daily basis resulted in me having to put a notice on the door stating if I was harassed by the cleaners again I would have to call the police as the situation had become that unsafe.

Clean hotel with nice big rooms and great facilities, the microwave and fridge were great added extras. My husband has a weird obsession with showers so he loved the rain shower haha. The staff we dealt with were all very friendly too. We will definitely be back again.

A few minutes away from aberdeen. Be prepared to ride the bus or have a car/bike available. Hotel renovated in 2021, modern, clean interior. Spa includes a new and clean steam room and sauna at no additional cost. English breakfast & coffee were ok.

Lovely country house hotel on the southern edge of Aberdeen with easy access to city. Welcoming hotel with a very traditional feel in the main building. Bedrooms are modern and our Standard room was well equipped with a large double bed and plenty of tea coffee etc. The hotel is dog friendly for a small charge. We had lovely cooked breakfasts and continental also available. We ate breakfast in the drawing room, as dogs understandably not allowed in main restaurant. We only ate in the bar area one evening which was cosy and fast service. Friendly staff and nice touch of a Birthday platter delivered to room in recognition of a significant Birthday being celebrated.

Booked this hotel whilst on a business trip to Aberdeen and usually like the Village hotel brand. The hotel itself is a modern village style hotel. We arrived late on a Sunday evening and the first experience with a staff member on reception wasn't great and a really abrupt check in. Was allocated a room on the first floor, 123. The room itself was nicely decorated and perfectly adequate. The issue came at 5:30am the next morning when incredibly loud bangs and noises were heard in the room. I thought it coild just be another guest above me getting up, but these noises continued and got louder. Then I looked at some reviews and realised I was right above the gym and multiple guest had suffered the same misfortune. The view from the window was also nonexistent and looked out directly on a small gravel area and then another wall. Hardly a great view of Aberdeen. The same staff member was on reception leading to a very unapologetic conversation regarding changing room for my final night. Was advised to sort when I returned in the evening. Thankfully a different staff member in the evening and the room was changed to a room on the 4th floor. Thankfully there was now a view, if you take out the huge gym roof. Hoping for no noise, I settled back down but then I woke at 6am and was still about to hear pumping music and the obvious sound of a gym instructor - from the 4th floor. I did have my window open for fresh air but even so - I was 4 floors up! Maybe it's an issue for all rooms facing the gym roof, not sure if the rooms the other side might have even better? Don't think I'll stay again!

The hotel itself is very modern and clean but vast and I mean vast it lacks a soul no atmostphere or character. The rooms are spacious and well appointed and they have a bath which is nice. The gym is not a gym it has some running machines and a feeble attempt at some equipment, it is also not air conditioned. The pool area is nice and the pool itself is decent, the sauna is very and the steam room is ok but a bit cool. Dinner is a limited menu and given that you are at least 10 miles from Aberdeen you’re kinda screwed on going out , so expensive too and very average. The parking is also a major chore, you park underground take a lift to ground level and the have 209yard outside walk, my advice, pull up outside and take in your bags and then park up. EV charging is limited to three points which were busy the whole time I was there so don’t rely on being able to charge. Breakfast was self service and had a broad choice of the usual things , there were no fried eggs so I asked if they were on there way, they came out promptly but were perfectly round and like rubber, they have heat lamps in the kitchen too I guess. Nice hotel but could be better

I loved the bed on this trip the bed would have to have been the best I slept in. Very close to the airport which was the reason I booked it. Staff friendly and helpful. Room clean, spacious and very comfortable.

We booked our wedding here 2 1/2 years ago and just had it yesterday 07/09/24. From start to finish the staff were incredible, very polite and helpful, the wedding manager Johnathan was unbelievable minus one very funny mistake that I didn’t let him forget 😂. Put our minds at ease and him and his team made the day go without a hiccup. The rooms were amazing with my own having a river view and a patio. The food for both our wedding meal, the night before and breakfast was excellent. Over all it was an amazing venue great food great staff. Could not recommend this place enough!
