Pros: warm welcome, wifi in room, clean rooms, DVDs movies available to watch, average breakfast, near bus stop Cons: no parking, beside street light (beeping for crosswalk all night), off busy road, too expensive, small bathroom, not the most spacious room, 40 minute walk to Union street Personal note: Could have stayed in a spacious 4 star hotel for the...

I recently stayed for a few weeks with a workmate and cannot speak highly enough of Evelyn and Charlie's hospitality. The Arkaig truly is a home from home with great breakfasts and spotless rooms with brilliant hot showers,shampoo,soap and large bathtowels provided. Highly recommended! Frank, Ayr

My son and I stayed at Arkaig Guesthouse for a couple of days last January. We were warmly welcomed to the guest house by Mrs. Evelyn Adam who was awaiting our arrival. It was a very nice and a clean place which is centrally located in Aberdeen. One can walk to the city center and the University of Aberdeen in... More

I had a couple of meetings at the University so Akraig was ideally located. The guesthouse is spotlessly clean and cosy, the hosts are very helpful and welcoming. The highlight for me was the lovely freshly cooked breakfast. If I come back to Aberdeen, I'd stay here for the breccy alone!

I stayed here for a few days while house hunting in Aberdeen and really liked it. My room was small, but comfortable and really cosy and quiet and the breakfasts were great.

Convenient location: 10 minutes’ walk to the main campus of Aberdeen University, and a short bus ride to the city centre (there are a few buses, and the bus stop is just a few... More

Excellent cooked breakfast and porridge made specially on request. Good location in relation to central Aberdeen. The road outside is busy during the day but does quieten down at night. I was very glad however to have a room... More

We came to Aberdeen by train, B & B was only £6 taxi ride away. Warm welcome was genuine. Room was at the back so was quiet. You got the Breakfast you ask for, Hot or cold. Could have others if ordered day before. Information was on hand if asked for. Would consider same venue if we are able to... More
