“First Class Service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2013 NEW

We visit Aberdeen regularly and I have to say this is the best accommodation we have stayed in. It is ideal for Union Street and hardly a walk to any facilities. Staff were very friendly, the accommodation first class. It was my husbands birthday and we appreciated the touches from the hotel to celebrate this. Would use the accommodation again.

“2nd visit as wonderful as the 1st”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2013

This was the second time we have stayed in these apartments, and I wouldn't stay anwhere else now when visiting Aberdeen. The apartment we had was very spacious with all you need for your stay, right down to milk in the fridge and washing machine tablets. It's lovely to have a seperate lounge to relax in rather than both squeezing... More

“Great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 April 2013

Staff helpful, took bags and gave advice as to how to get to places. Room clean and well kitted out, some nice touches like complimentary drink and snacks. We had the continental breakfast which was better than in most places, again staff could not be more helpful. In terms of value for money this place is very good value indeed.... More

We are eight golfers from Norway and we stayed at Skene House Holburn from april 4th to 7th. We can recommend this hotel to everyone. It is very clean and the breakfast was excellent. Service is superb and tanks a lot to Liz who organized all golf and transport for us. Kaare Ingve Monsen

The suite we had was spotless, well decorated and comfy, it was March 2013 when we stayed and the suite was cosy but you can control the temperature to suit yourself. The staff were very helpful and friendly but were unobtrusive to your stay. We had the continental breakfast as part of our room tariff and there were plenty options... More

My partner and I were going to Aberdeen with my 83 year old mother for a family birthday. But not knowing Aberdeen didn't know where to stay. Checked Trip Advisor and booked into the Skene House. I asked for a low floor as there is no lift. Not a problem for us, but a problem for my old mum. The... More
