Just home from a two day stay at this hotel. Overall our stay was nice. There were some really good points and some annoying points. I will start with the good: - The young guy and the young girl manning the pool were really nice and friendly and very accommodating helping us book the pool times. - The room was really nice and big and clean. - The breakfast was tasty and the restaurant was nice. The bad points: - You have to pay to park at the hotel which I found to be ludacris since we travelled there and had to park there. Even though it was only £3 per night with the half price token, I have never had to pay to park at a hotel before when I’ve been staying there. - One of the breakfast staff was rude when we asked if there were any more pancakes. She promptly responded by saying, ‘I don’t know you will have to ask one of my colleagues’ then walked away. However the other man working the breakfast area seemed to be running around doing everything and he was really friendly. - There was a wedding on at the venue and there was so much noise through the night with people speaking loud and running through the corridors. It was not peaceful at all that night. Overall I did enjoy the stay and would come back.

Fabulous hotel. Staff were extremely polite, attentive and friendly. The whole hotel was spotless. Very comfortable bed. Spacious room which was well equipped with hairdryer, iron, ironing board, tea and coffee making facilities and even a fan. Leisure facilities fantastic. We were here for a wedding and function rooms were lovely. Food at the event was delicious and breakfast was great too. No complaints. Highly recommend.

A very large hotel with pool and gym facilities on the southern edge of Aberdeen. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable and pool was small but clean. I did not use the bar or restaurant. The area around the hotel is uninteresting so a car is advisable. Staff helpful.

Staff excellent. Food could be slightly better. Beds are rock hard and pillows lumpy. Would have been 5 star all round except for those wee negatives. Beds don’t provide a good sleep at all. If these things sorted, it would be perfect.

We enjoyed our first stay at Aberdeen Altens Hotel, the staff were all very welcoming and friendly. It’s a great location for being out of the hustle & bustle of the city centre. We got the bus into town which was great as no parking fees etc. we used the pool which was brilliant, caters for all and isn’t overcrowded. The restaurant was spacious and lovely, relaxing interior, breakfast was great, really good variety. Our room was nice, spacious and on the ground floor, only negative I have is there was a long hair on the bath tap the bath was clean so not too much of an issue, the bottom of the bathroom door was chipped all along the bottom the wood looked like it was ruined from water. The beds are on wheels so moved very easily which wasn’t ideal with a toddler, under the beds really needed a hoover as the were dusty however, the beds were clean as was the rest of the room. We stayed in room 134 and will definitely stay at the Altens again.

The hotel was ok, Shame the lifts were out of order during our stay, I wasn’t happy with them having the car park repaired while people were using it as the contractors were cutting the car park floor and dust and stones covering parked cars (not thoughtful at all)

Parking used to be free but now there is a charge. The car park is full of pot holes and impossible to leave without hitting potholes. No mention of charge on booking. At check in we were informed that the lifts were not working. We have a 5 month old baby and another young child. Everytime we had to go to / from our room we had to take a pram up / down 2 flights of stairs. At one point our baby almost fell out of the pram wholst doing this. It made taking suitcases, pram etc very difficult. No compensation or alternative room arrangements were offered. Staff didn't seem to care. No mention the lifts were not working at time of booking however reception staff said they hadn't been working for some time. The restaurant had rotten fruit and when I ordered a vegan desert, it came with ice cream. I pointed this out and the waiter then brought the plate back with sorbet (not the blood orange flavour on the menu but a raspberry one), but the cake, strawberry and sorbet were on top of cream! The waiter dumped the plate and left as quick as he could before I could say anything about the cream. This is an allergy not a preference and we felt our needs were not taken seriously. The room was noisy, next to the lifts which seemed to be making a noise of going up and down, although they were not working. Only 3 towels provided in a room booked for 4. Reception said we only need to ask for more but my point was we shouldn't need to ask.
