Eat before you arrive!
Pros:

Awful service in restaurant. Very neglectful staff. Too busy talking and watching TV.
Food arrive like someone had attempted to eat it already. Left before pudding arrived as waited half an hour since I’d finished. Not busy in the restaurant at all 4 members of staff talking and watching TV

CUT THE TWO TREES DOWN .
Pros:

On arrival its excellent that this inn has HGV parking but there are two trees right at the carpark entrance that make it difficult to access . Staff were good , room was fine , food was fine . Usual.Scottish standards.

Great location & value for money
Pros:

I stay here often and love the location. It’s clean, beds are comfy and staff are usually very helpful. It’s very warm and we always need the window open. The quilt on the bed is super cosy but in the summer months way too heavy. I feel they should be providing a thinner quilt during summer months or at least having one available in the storage unit.

Bad
Pros:

Boogies on the wall. There was a fan outside the room that made a loud noise all night. Insanely hot at night. Very dusty. Toilets smelt like a mix of old pee and beef hula hoops. There vending machine scammed me out of a snickers also we were looking forward to the breakfast all day and then got there and there were NO HASH BROWNS !!!!!! The room was very very crowded . Only one towel and there was no reception to give us other towels. Blue marks all over the shower curtain. We had to go to Asda and buy fly spray because there was so many flys. We were going to go for a nice beverage BUT the pub shut at 9pm. Abandoned cars in the field across the road made me feel as if I was entering a haunted house. The light was wonky. The view was a brick wall. There was a nice picture on the wall though. There was a skiddy in our toilet made me sick (literally) Would not recommend.

A very tired hotel with dirty rooms. Don’t stay here.
Pros:

The location of this hotel is ok and just a short distance from Aberdeen centre.
There is no atmosphere although the receptionist called Elena was very pleasant and friendly.
The room was filthy. Curtains were marked with previous damp, sofa bed and chair had dirt and dust over them. Walls were stained and carpets dirty. It seems the cleaners are not cleaning to the company standards.

We have been staying in Premier Inns for many years, and this hotel was one of the worst.
I would not recommend staying here.

Premier Inn - Great Value, location and staff
Pros:

Love a Premier Inn! Always the same standard, lovely beds, pillows and white fluffy towels - all member of staff team are very nice, super location with plenty of free parking and a short walk to a retail park that has an M&S Foodhall. Value for money is outstanding too.

Not good
Pros:

First room (17) you could smell the dampness in the corridor before we opened the door
It took 20 seconds for my wife yto reject the room due to the overwhelming smell of dampness and foost
Back to reception, no hassle room 40 swapped to ,no reply made to comment of dampness and asking if they had a flood
Room 40 ok at first more towels supplied from reception as only 1 hand and 1 bath towel in the room
On return at 10pm the bar was shut no chance of a nightcap
However on going to bed the duvet not the cover stank of a smell simliar to curry ..the same with the 2 pillows on the bed ..not the sheets and pillows but the duvet inside the cover
Luckily spare pillows were better
Slept without duvet covering us
Plenty of noises during the night sound proofing rubbish people talking outside the window kids noisy next door

Couldnt even be bothered reporting it to the staff and getting the standard answers
So if this is your idea of a nice hotel ..be my guest
Ps.supply of water and toiletries exceptional great for getting the smell of curry out of your hair and body
Wont be back Sorry

Poor Premier Inn
Pros:

I booked this hotel for business. I turned up and checked in, booking a table for 7pm for the restaurant next to the hotel. I turned up just before 7pm and no reservation was made? When questioned the receptionist she said she just of “forgot”. The restaurant was quite busy and I had to wait a further 30mins to have food. The room itself did not have air con and was extremely hot. Would not use again.

Reasonable
Pros:

Reception staff very friendly. Room fine, usual Premier Inn standard except there was no air-con and the room was 25 degrees. We opened the window as much as we could but firstly it was on a latch so couldn’t be fully opened which made sense as we were on the ground floor and secondly we had an unexpected knock on the door towards midnight and we think someone was trying to get into rooms. Somewhat worrying as there no longer was a chain for the door. Also you don’t need to use your key card to gain access to the floor, so it felt a little unsafe.

We had the dinner and breakfast deal and the restaurant staff were excellent. Food was what you would expect for the price point.

Go To For Golfers
Pros:

Warm non fussy welcome, rooms immaculately clean, great value and I will be back. Ideal for access to the golf courses in the Aberdeen area. The bar next door stayed open for us on a Sunday night, that was appreciated.

Nowhere like the usual PI Standards
Pros:

Booked for my son and I to have a base during a swim event nearby. On first seeing the hotel as we drove up I commented how run down it looked but was sure it would be up to the usual premier inn standards once we were inside.

However I couldn't be more wrong! Our room, on the ground floor, was extremely tired, dark and dingy and the bed divan had no sheet covering it and it all just looked really uninviting . The king-size bed was too
high off the floor , though it was actually not too bad comfort wise and the pillows were good. There were signs of mould and damp in the bathroom and the floors didn't appear very clean. The floorboards creaked horrendously, waking up my son when I got up during the night and we had a lot of noise from adjacent rooms until after 1am

I'm really curious to know if we were just unlucky to get an uncared for room, or if there are different standards available and how can you ensure you get a nice room?

The table table restaurant was good and the food was great and reasonable priced. The staff were extremely overworked and definitely stressed telling us they were 6 members of staff down so it was a bit of a shame especially given the hotel was so full with many swim teams. They were doing their best but the atmosphere could have been better.

Really don't think is go back to this hotel unless I knew for sure I'd get a room that resembled what you see on the website

Comfortable beds and clean, that's the only reason to stay.
Pros:

The bed was comfortable, the room was clean, the location was perfect for us visiting friends. Things we did not like, the hotel wanted £15 to give us a room key 45 minutes early. Our room was available and already cleaned, we travelled 6 & half hours via car and made good time. Upon check in we was not informed of breakfast time and where breakfast was located, we went down twice to ask but nobody on reception. Our room had a hole in the ceiling from a leak although that did not bother us. At 2am the room got extremely hot (24° and 28.5°!) even though our thermostat was turned down to 16. Tried to run a bath on the last morning but there was no hot water. Overall an average stay.
