We stayed at one of the local guesthouses that did not offer dinner, and the owner recommended the Deeside Hotel for our evening meal. The dining room was lovely and bright with a beautiful garden view ~ It was my birthday and it was a special dining experience. My friend had the duck and was pleased. I had a pork... more

I stayed at the Deeside with my husband and baby daughter (9 months). We had a lovely room with a double aspect onto the garden. The room was clean and the bed was massive and very comfortable - top marks! The owners were very accommodating and helpful, making sure that all our needs were met. Both myself and my husband,... more

We stayed at this conveniently situated Hotel in a double room for an overnight in mid-July including dinner. The ancient building is charming featuring a nice conservatory, a cosy lounge and a well-kept garden. So is the corner room which was proposed to us. The downside was the dinner - it didn't correspond to the menu discription and was uninspired.... more

We stayed for two nights and found the owners very welcoming. The hotel was comfortable clean and in a great location. It was really unfortunate there was work being carried out in the conservatory dining area and bar. We had dinner and breakfast twice, the food was excellent and the ingredients were obviuosly top quality. The suasage and bacon used... more

Thank you for the review. We are lucky that Scotland has the most amazing supply of fresh game, fish and other produce which we take advantage of in the restaurant so it is always nice to see it is appreciated. We are pleased to say that the emergency repairs that we had to carry out in the bar/lounge area are...

This is a really nice, small hotel, and I would highly recommend it for anyone considering a day or two, or more, in the general Deeside area. We had a lovely room on the second floor, decorated in hunter green with dark wood furniture, small flat panel TV, walk-in closet, roomy bathroom with shower over tub, and a skylight. There... more

Having read a previous review regarding room allocation I have to agree with the owner's response. At the last minute we decided on an Easter jaunt to Ballater. Our usual port of call was fully booked, so found The Deeside Hotel's website & gave them a call. The owner informed me very clearly that all they had left was one... more

Stayed there for 4 nights in late september 2007 together with my wife, while we were walking the countryside and fishing the river Dee. Nice, little hotel; close to the "town center" ;charming and helpful hostess,;good food; clean; quiet; the room OK, but nothing special though. Overall a good impression. Perfect location for exploring "Royal Deeside". more

We stayed 2 nights at the Deeside Hotel over a long weekend and had a wonderful time. The room was spacious, clean and had historical character. The whole hotel was really cosy and welcoming. We especially thought the service was excellent, extremely helpful while still restrained. The food was also really great quality, especially dessert which was perhaps the best... more

21st July 2007 for two nights. My husband and I thought that this was a charming hotel. Our room was lovely with a four poster bed. The shower room was a little bit on the small side but appreciate that the age of the building probably dictates what can be done to the space available, it was perfectly adequate. The... more
