My husband and I stayed here for one night in April after running in the Petrofac Challenge race at Balmoral. The hotel location was spot on for us - just a short drive from the estate. We had a room in the old part of the building with a four poster bed and seating area. The room included bathrobes, slippers,... More

A great location for touring around the area. Centrally located. We were in one of the time-share lodges that would sleep 6 using the pull-down bed. Seemed a bit run-down...more like a beach cottage than a Hilton hotel. Great views from the balcony. We ate out every day and had our own breakfast in the unit. Washer dryer was nice... More

We stayed in a 1 bedroom lodge fully equipped to sleep 4 people if you use the folding queen size bed in the lounge. The kitchen was better equipped than our kitchen at home and the views from the lounge were stunning although some other lodges have restricted views due to the woodland setting. The property was well maintained and... More

We stayed in the 4 Poster Suite, the room was superb with the exception that the room service menu was covered in stains of some description, this is a Hilton and... More

Just returned from a two night break on dinner bed and breakfast basis. Excellent value of £119 for a twin room via Hilton's own website. Large twin room in the older part of the hotel, with a superb view looking west over the mountains. We were there for the nearby golf courses (unrelated to the hotel, but also excellent) and... More

My wife and I spent a night at the Hilton Craigendarroch last week (Mon 7th May 2012) to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. We booked the 1 night Spa Break with dinner, B&B, and we loved every minute of our stay. Firstly the hotel location is absolutely stunning, we'd never visited this part of the country before, and we'll definitely... More

We spent one week ath the end of March in a lodge (not to be confused with the hotel) at the Hilton Craigendarroch near Ballater. The check-in highlighted what other reviewers have said about the condition of the hotel, the check-in process and the accommodations in general. It could be improved. At minimum, better training would be helpful. Moreover, we,... More
