Comfortable and relaxing, really nice bed, close to the town centre but quiet (a bit noisy on Saturday night but no big deal) adjacent to a lovely park.
Aberdeen itself is wonderful, great architecture, museums and a nice beach

Bit of a gem
Great discovery. Very conveniet city centre location in a quiet characterful granite square. Straightforward to get in and out of the building/room. Excellent cleaniness and value for money.
Joseph
Excellent serviced apartment in a central but quiet spot in Aberdeen city centre. Excellent communications from property prior or arrival. Very clean & comfortable.
anthony
Terrific accomodation, very clean and comfortable. Very central location so all amenities are close at hand.
Ranya
It was the cleanest apartment we have ever stayed in. The main town is just around the corner. Very comfortable bed. Apartment had everthing we needed. Highly recommend.
Tim
Staff was responsive to service requests. Room and bath was nice.
We went here because of a kitchen. Oven did not work. It took 7 days to fix. After 6 days we asked for another room, but oven was fixed next day. Microwave and stove were good.
Manager was rude and condescending. We asked for a rebate but none was offered.

Great value, comfortable accommodation
Great value, central, comfortable accommodation. Bathroom looking a little tired in places, but other than that perfect stay and excellent value for money. Would recommend for short stop overs in Aberdeen!
Tim
Great value comfortable suites in central location
Great suite apartments a short walk from Union Street. The square where they are located is very quiet.
Barry
Nice place, very quiet and all clean and tidy and well presented
Ronaldo Carvalho
Quiet and comfortable place in a great location
The building is in a cosy square just off the buzz from Union Street. Very convenient located, easy to find and within walking distance from all the landmarks in Aberdeen. Communication throughout was very effective. As soon as my booking was confirmed I was contacted about my check-in time. As I would arrive outside their check-in time, there was someone waiting for me when I got to the property and all the instructions were passed on to me.
The flat was spectacular! Very comfortable bed, good linen, powerful shower, spacious living room/kitchen area. The kitchen is well-equipped with all your basics and they even provide you with tea bags, coffee and milk jiggers. There was also a cruet of salt and pepper and washing up liquid. Wine classes, tin opener, cups, plates, pots and pans. All there.The area is quiet and a good night sleep is certainly guaranteed. I'll definitely stay in the Craibstone Suites again.

The epitome of expectation versus reality...
The epitome of expectation versus reality... We booked based on the photos of the room we were supposedly getting, the so called “grand executive suite with balcony” it’s more like a box room with a balcony, a bog standard hotel room really... not worth the grandeur of the name and falsely advertised, apparently using all the best photos of all the different rooms making it look like the room you get will have all the best features. We booked the room due to the balcony in the photos on Vrbo only to find out we didn’t have a balcony...??? This was remedied after paying an additional £10 per night fee directly to the reception for the privilege of having a balcony... which we already thought we were getting... the balcony was in fact the only thing we liked about the room, the room was small cramped and unwelcoming with dated furniture. Glad we did get the balcony in the end because that room on its own would have been very drab. We suggest the management take some responsibility and ensure that what is advertised on 3rd party websites and apps are accurate to their particular rooms offered. Not worth the money we paid.
Eve
Our stay was great, we were in the basement apartment which suited us fine. There was a couple of things which required attention, holes in bath towels and shower door seal needing replaced. We did find that the £75.00 deposit is rather high and it did take 4/5 working days to be refunded back to my credit card.

A really lovely place in a smart part of Aberdeen, friendly welcome and helpful lady (Anya?) who found me a phone charger.

5 stars :)
Great service from the minute we arrived. The room we got was perfect for our needs, it was nice and clean and the fridge/cupboards were well stocked with the essentials. The hotel was in a great location, a short walk from the city centre and in a nice quiet street which was ideal for my son to get a good nights sleep without being disturbed. Would recommend this location to others and look forward to returning in the future.

Nice apartment, good location. Rooms a bit cold and heating was turned down during the day so I had to turn it back up each evening rather than returning to a warm apartment.

Great Central Location
excellent. very comfy, staff very freindly and helpful. Good facilities.
George
Very Convenient Location
There are 44 steps to get to the second floor. The bedroom was quiet but my wife found it a bit of a struggle to climb up to it.

Stay was excellent just disapointed the room did not have a couch as well as there was room for it.

Good service and room. Not able to leave luggage past 6pm so had to store at Aberdeen railway station for £5. Overall a good experience however.
Charlotte
Basement hotel room
We spent one night at location. Room was comfortable however, it would have received a higher rating if there was air conditioning. We were located on basement level facing stairs which didn't give much privacy. I would check next time and request a room on one of the other floors.
June J.
Helpful staff, excellent location
Perfect location for walking to many good restaurants, bars. Parking was simple and close. Comfortable spaces in which to work or relax. Quick access to enter and leave Aberdeen.
Dawn
as above
It was OK - fit for purpose, but not as good as similar Suite Accommodation available in the same area for a similar price
Helen
Quick visit
Apart from a sofa with very soft cushions we had a very comfortable suite. Basic breakfast was provided-great for a weekend break.
Verified traveler
So so
The \"Executive Suite\" name is too big for what we actually get for our night stay. I booked for 2 but we got 1 towel and breakfast for 1 in the fridge (2 slices of bread, small bottle of milk, butter and jam all small packaging). So, if that's what we get for the price paid then I'd pay more next time to have a bigger and better accommodation elsewhere.

comfortable nice place
lovely place to stay but too warm for me and had to ask for a fan,also the bathroom had a slant in ceiling which was not good for my height as i had to lower my head.

Great stay at craibstone suites yet again. Room 105 requires a couple of new sockets but apart from that everything was perfect.

Really well located hotel. I never think to check for lifts so a wee bit of a \"traip\" up a couple of flights & with luggage it was a little difficult.

Accommodation for Business or Family Trips
Selected this apartment for a 1 week business trip and found it suitable. Close to Union Square shops but not necessarily too noisy. There is a complete facility inside the room for cooking (utensils included)
Simon
Not great!
It should be made abundantly clear at the time of booking that the hotel requests a deposit. I booked and pre paid the room for a staff member to stay whilst working in Aberdeen - she was then made to pay £75 deposit from a card which she had to borrow the money from a family member to cover. An embarrassing situation.
Also on the booking it was stated late check out - had to check out at 11am. I dread to think what a normal check out time is.

Great location for town.
The first room was small and only had one chair and no table to eat off and a security light on 24/7 in the room. The second room did have 2 chairs and a table. Very helpful receptionist.

Comfortable apartments in quiet neighbourhood
One night stay in self catering apartment. Room very comfortable, quiet neighbourhood, comfortable bed and good facilities. Basic breakfast (sliced bread, milk and cereal) available in apartment - but shops in the neighbourhood.

All excellent - except breakfast is not much
convenient location, very clean and quite. my second time of staying taking advantage of the weekend deal. V happy with everything except breakfast is not really for me - three three slices of bread for two people and cereal.
lisa
nice hotel but need to look at car parking
Check in on Sunday went well no problem. The full time receptionist is very helpful, always ready to assist. They also supplied the breakfast item that we both need. Checking out on Sunday, the receptionist called to ask when we will be checking out, in fact that we had arranged for late checkout. The receptionist didn't check her notes.
Josephine and Richard
Short stay at the Craibstone Aberdeen.
Enjoyed our 2 day stay but will stay for 3 days next time as it was a reasonable price.
The continental breakfast was the only disappointment with our short stay as it was very limited.

Meg
Very Convenient for all amenities
Within 10 min walk from station, bus station, Union Square and other shopping malls, close to three good restaurants and some bars, just off Union Street, but lovely and quiet in the evenings
Rooms really well insulated, minimal outside noise.
View from 'city view' apartments not fantastic but have balconies, suites 102, 103 have lovely views of Bon accord Square.
Suite very clean although a bit tired looking now (I first came here when the had just opened so am biased!)
Nice quality furnishings, free toiletries and shower cap.
Fridge replenished daily with three slices of bread of different millings, butter, or flora, jams marmalade and honey. Fresh milk. Portions of four different breakfast cereals available.
All the cutlery, crockery and glassware you need as well as toaster, kettle, hob and microwave.
Good value for money

Just what we needed. After experiencing a few cramped B & Bs it was heaven to get space, a fridge and seperate bathroom. Friendly and helpful reception, clean and spacious rooms. Location close to main streets.

Georgian house close to Aberdeen centre
I had a good experience. Comfortable room in a quiet old square very near Union Street. Lovely to have a bath not just a shower, and kitchen facilities. I liked not having to go down to breakfast but have it provided in my room. Only drawback to being so central - not hotel's fault - was being woken at 2.30am by very loud drunks arguing outside - man and woman with a piercing voice!
Jeff
Good location and facilities
Apartment offers something different to a run of the mill hotel. Cooking facilities such as microwave and hob and a fridge give you the option to eat-in with a continental-style breakfast included. Good location for restaurants and bars - although can get a bit noisy at night. Friendly staff at door.

Nice Central Base for Aberdeen
Very nice stay at Hotel. Very polite and proficient Staff. Room was clean and comfy. Only down side was parking issues. Because we are relatively local we knew where to park for free. The parking fees outside hotel were quite steep. However, totally recommend the Hotel as a base for leisure and business users. We will be using the Hotel again

Suites rather than a hotel, and good for that
Stay here regularly, which says a lot. Upsides: kitchen area and breakfast basics in room, central but quiet, nice people. Downsides: reception closed in early morning (i.e. no receipt when I check out), TV in lounge area rather than bedroom for most rooms (also an upside sometimes), no restaurant/ bar/ room service.

Not quite a hotel, but close
Nice room, great location, very central but still quiet (apart from the seagulls, but can't escape them in Aberdeen!) Only minor inconvenience is that reception opens at 8 in the morning, so can't get my receipt if leaving earlier than that.
