“Will certainly use this hotel again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

We spent one night here having 'f'ound' the hotel by using our sat nav. The hotel was small but very clean and comfortable. We ate in the restaurant and really enjoyed the meal. (prices very reasonable too!). There is a bar and also for good weather use, a little outside courtyard to sit in. There is also a small car park at the rear. Staff were all very helpful and friendly and our room was very well decorated and provided everything we wanted - en suite, a desk, clothes hanging and drawer space, TV with lots of choice, tea and coffee etc.

Room Tip: we had room 4 which faced the road - but not too much noise as it is a small road - good thick curta...

“lovely hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2008

we spent two nights at the hotel and all i can say as a very fussy
person that it was a home from home. the bedroom was spotless the staff were lovely and could not have made us more welcome. we had a lovely evening meal the chef was brilliant and cooked meals that were not even on the menu in my opinion he is worth his weight in gold. i will definetly be going back to the hotel. keep up the good work and you will have customers flocking back.

  • Liked — the cleanliness and the staff who could not do enough to make our stay a pleasure
  • Disliked — there was nothing to dislike

“Mixed feelings about this hotel”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2008

I needed 3 nights accommodation in Aberdeen for business reasons. The whole city was booked up but I found the Aberdeen Larches on the internet.

The booking was easy and friendly.

My travel plans changed at the last minute meaning that I had to cancel 2 of my nights. This was accepted and I didn't lose any money.

I had room 2 on the ground floor which was fine, an en-suite bathroom where the wash handbasin was too small and no place to hang towels. The shower was good apart from the intermittent hot water.

I had dinner in the restaurant as there is nothing worth seeing outside the hotel. In fact the taxi driver warned me not to go out after dark! The menu was extensive and I had difficulty choosing only one dish!! The food was great, chicken broth soup followed by gammon steak and egg with chips and salad. The service was good too. I had the Boddingtons beer which was excellent.

The only real down side was the other guests. Someone was tramping up and down the corridor in the early hours which meant I had little sleep. It always amazes me how inconsiderate other people can be when staying in hotels.

A good range for breakfast but my diet dictated cereal, tea and toast. Such a shame as the cooked breakfast looked so tempting!

If I stay there again I will ask for a different room so I don't get woken up by the ignorant noisy guests.

Taxi from the city centre to hotel was about £10 (GBP 10) so if planning to go into the city the cost would stack up. But the bar and restaurant were ok places to hang out for the evening.

  • Liked — Dinner
  • Disliked — The noisy other guests

“Excellent Room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2008

Stayed here for one night on business. Found the hotel to be very good. Staff where helpful and friendly. The room was excellent. Well designed, very clean and decorated to a high standard. Was surprised. The food was also very good, however the room rate mid week was a bit on the high side. That is Aberdeen for you though. With a constant stream of Oil workes coming and going rates tend to be alot higher.

  • Liked — The size of the room
  • Disliked — The outside seating area

“Noisy and overpriced”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2007
1
person found this review helpful

Spent a night here as everything else in Aberdeen was booked. City very busy just now which is why places like this can overcharge. Well outside the city center but encouraged by other reviews. My room was between reception and a utility room where they seemed to have a dishwasher (loaded at 1am but someone with tuberculosis from the sound of it), outside I had the bins, on the other side of the corridor the bar restaurant. Arrived on a cold, very wet day and they didn't even have the central heating on. On the plus side, the breakfast was good.
