Cottages in Aberdeenshire

"Staff and restaurant very good, especially smoked haddock for breakfast. Dinner menus but overpriced. My double standard room was far too small ( not for two people) lucky I was in my own. Furnishing very poor and cramped. Shower room even smaller and no shelf for soap / shampoo. Disappointed really."

"We had dinner in the restaurant that was average but the staff were very friendly and helpful "

"A lovely overnight stay. The sandwiches at lunchtime ( especially the Club) and the truffle and Parmesan fries were superb as was dinner. Lovely clean rooms, tastefully decorated throughout the hotel and staff were extremely helpful. What a stunning position next to the river!"

"This was the second time of staying at the Banff Springs Hotel. I found the whole experience very pleasing. The reception, bar and restaurant area is very clean and a comfortable place to chill. I booked single rooms for my Son and I and we both found them to be of a good size with a comfortable bed, which is all one needs after a long drive up from London. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and found that the choice of food was plentiful and a good variety of dishes. The food itself was well presented and tasty with good portion sizes. The staff were all very polite and extremely helpful. The only really minor faults I could find were that of no lift and as a disabled person who finds it difficult to walk I struggled with the three flights of stairs. The only other fault was that in the face of hygiene the TV remote was very dirty with a build up of grime around the buttons and failing batteries. I would absolutely recommend staying here if you are intending to work or holiday in this beautiful East coast part of Scotland."

"Such a treat to stay at this location! The staff and food were amazing and the lodge was like a step back in time, but with all the modern amenities. I stayed in the sweetest room that was just perfect for my needs. The sound of the rushing water from the river was constant and soothing and could be heard from all corners and areas of the facility. Very well worth every effort made to be there."

"Our room 315 was a big disappointment The Toilet Seat was broken. There were holes in the wall were the Curtain Tie back holders should have been . No CurtainTies were present . Holes on the Bed Base with stuffing coming out The Standard Lamp Shade was broken and cracked all round the top . The Room was a real disappointment to us "

"The room was spotlessly clean a few light patches on the carpet but very well maintained the staff were welcoming and the choice of breakfast menu was amazing my friend and opted for a full Scottish breakfast which was cooked to perfection and so tasty there was a selection of buns croissants and yogurts and fruit if you wanted a healthy breakfast. The bathroom was very nice I ordered the products online which I do after every visit which are provided in the bathroom and we indulged in the spa in the evening we opted for an afternoon tea with the view to a late dinner later in the evening but the afternoon tea was so delicious and filling we did not need dinner. parking was secure and complimentary and there is ample parking albeit a small distance walk. I paid £20 each for my six year old dog and my 14 week old pup to join me in our room and my dogs got a huge welcome from reception and the grounds are fabulous for a walk dogs are welcome in the drawing room to eat and enjoy a drink so five Star for dog friendliness thank you so much ardoe house hotel and spa team we will definatly be back."

"Nice, good valve for the money, decent food good bar if you feel like a drink, comfortable bed, easy parking, quiet. "
