Also there is a nice common area with tea, coffee, biscuits and papers for free. The rooms are appartments that have kitchens, living rooms, separate bedrooms. Service is always... More

This hotel was above expectation. The staff were so helpful and the apartment was roomy and comfortable. Breakfast was a big bonus with helpful waiters. Lounge had free coffee, tea and biscuits. There was an honesty bar with the first drink free. Wi-fi and free use of computer in the lounge - really could not fault it.

We had a fantastic 3 day stay and will be definitely be returning in the future. It was spotless inside and out and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast was fantastic with a great variety. The location was ideal so close to the city centre and the free onsite parking was a plus. A lovely stay

We had a great two day stay at the Skene and will definitely stay again if we return to the area. The staff were very helpful, the breakfasts had a great variety of fruit and croissants, and the complimentary drinks in the evening were a very nice touch. Also nice for extended travelling were free washing machines and laundry soap!!... More

As a family of 5 we booked a three-bedroom suite and it was ideal. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The freedom of our own sitting/dining room and kitchen was perfect with a 5 year old and the continental breakfast was superb with a great selection and nothing ever being in shot supply. There were always enough staff on... More
