Stayed here over weekend and the whole experience was a disgrace, dirty and run down room and staff not trained properly to deal with complaints, didn't even bother trying their restaurant, it's such a shame because the location is beautiful, we won't be back.

Attended a dinner for over 100 guests last weekend. Place was hardly clean although new carpet laid and some decorating done. Toilet doors didn't fit and couldn't lock. Staff very friendly but needing trained and not enough of them. Exit doors from function room to outside rotten through and very unsightly. Food was quite good but needing extra flair if... More

Stayed here on business last week with another colleague. After reading some of the negative reviews, thought it important to share our very positive experience... Beautiful setting, grand entrance & grounds,sympathetic traditional scottish decor, dark wood panelling & stunning views over the countryside. We found the staff to be genuinely welcoming, friendly & helpful. Chose to eat in the bar,... More

First time I've been here ; Tar macadam track for most of the way up to the hotel .... Then very loose chips that don't make driving easy and damage the car ? Front entrance unavailable, side entrance has no clear signage as to where I should be going ( door doesn't even say PULL/PUSH ) . Lady at the... More

Stayed overnight 30th/31st whilst up north with work. After reading reviews colleague and I a bit sceptical but our visit surpassed expectations. Yes it's being refurbished but rooms lovely. Mine smaller than colleagues but still good size and nicely furnished with comfy bed and nice bathroom. Staff very friendly and helpful but perhaps could be a bit more positive in... More

Returned to Aberdeen for our wedding anniversary and got a deal at the Thainstone, got a good room and the staff could not have been more helpful. Very nice room 205, plenty of room and we had our Black Labrador with us, we were on a DBB deal and the food is superb, worthy of a couple of rosettes at... More

We were up at the Thainstone House Hotel last week for a few days with friends. I had read the reviews beforehand and was very apprehensive about going, but we had a super time. The food was fantastic and our room(103) was huge. Do not believe all you read in reviews or you would not go to a lot of... More

Another hotel that looks impressive in the lovely photos but unfortunately doesn't live up to expectations. I would rate this at 2 - 3 star and it really should be £60-£70 instead of the £130 I was charged for a double room. The corridors, doors, rooms and e suites were in need of a good quality refurb and only then... More

This hotel could be so much more but disappoints in lots of areas. It is located north west of the city, approximately 7 miles from the airport. The grounds are expansive and pleasant to walk around and the building suggests greater things inside. Whilst the service was very pleasant, that's where the good points stop. My bedroom was small -... More
