Visiting Aberdeen on business, as my meetings were arranged at short notice, this was the only hotel that had a vacancy in the immediate vacinity of Aberdeen. Despite being only 14 miles north of Aberdeen, the standard taxi fare was £35 each way. The hotel in its heyday was obviously quite grand (as the hotel's website would have you believe),... more

We went for a meal a few days ago and were somewhat disappointed by the restaurant. We had been 2 years ago and really enjoyed the experience at the time but standards seem to have come done since.

I have stayed at the Udny Arms on several occasions. It is clean, neat and has a wonderful dining room along with a friendly pub. Rooms are not big but comfortable. The location is very good. From this hotel, lots of famous and not so famous golf courses can be accessed. To name three, Cruden Bay, Mercar and Royal Aberdeen... more
