    from Largs , GB on  May 26, 2008

    The accommodation was simple and effective, resulting in a low price for my stay and therefore good value for money. I got exactly what I was looking for and in a very good location.

    Nothing comes to mind.

    Not really about the hotel - but as I was on business and the hotel was right in the centre of Dyce, I had problems with traffic to work.

    from Northwich , GB on  September 26, 2007

    "I was up in Aberdeen for a one night stay as I was attending a wedding just out of town. The Antrim appealed to me because of it's location right near the railway station, ideal for Union Street too if you are touring the city or just wanting a night out." (97662758)

    The location was very convenient, having arrived by train it was only a short walk to the Antrim. The room was clean and tidy and the bed very comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

    "This guest house is located in the area where several guest houses are located. The room rate seems an average but the breakfast is full menue. In addition, this one seems to have comparatively smaller number of room than the neighbor ones, therefore, you can be easy to feel like your place and be relaxed." (99793357)

    Great flexibility. Warm service like home, but not too much questions and chatting.

    The hotel is central with on site parking, which is always a boon. The staff are friendly.

    The furnishings and decor are becoming more dated and faded :(

    "I would have liked to have been informed about the location, the cost and the facilities of the guest house." (2863222)

    It was very nice, clean and not too big. There was a great atmosphere about the place, and the people who run it were very friendly as well. The location was also top class, as it is located just 5 minutes away from Union Street, which is the city center of Aberdeen. The price was also within limits for most people.

    It would be nice to have your own bathroom, but I can understand, that tghis would also mean, that it would cost more to stay at the guest house.

    "The hospitality and good breakfast make this guest house, in a city that is not generally reasonble on pricing, along with a good central location to the main street, bus and railway stations recommended." (2789325)

    Central location

    a padded chair or seating pad would have been good as the slated wooden got uncomfortable after a while and didn't want to sit on the bed.

The room was adequate, clean and had a TV and digital box in it. It was not an en-suit, but the bathroom was clean and had a good shower. The position of the hotel was excellent and very close to the shopping centre, and only a ten minute walk from the train station. Had a good evening meal at the Saddlers which was only a five minute walk down Crown Street." (2767741)
