Ate here a couple of times. The best service and the food is truly some of the top food you will eat in Aberdeen.
Excellent experience - attention to detail is evident everywhere and staff could not do enough to make our stay memorable
We stayed here for 2 nights (Sept 7 & 8, 2023). Service staff was fantastic. Location is beautiful and right next to one of the best golf courses in Scotland (Trump golf course), however rooms are not well maintained.
Superb stay, super friendly and helpful staff. Probably the best food and sleep ever! Will definitely be going back.
An outstanding hotel!... wonderful service, spectacular rooms and the food was incredible!... the best Hogmanay I’ve ever had!... will definitely be back. Every detail has been considered and the decor is just stunning... the fireworks display was amazing....
We stayed here during the Open back in 2018 and we absolutely loved it. We want to come back soon!
The beds are lovely. The staff are helpful. Bathtub is big and can soak 2 average size people. Towels are plush. Surroundings are absolutely gorgeous. You need a car though cuz it takes 1 mi to walk from MacLeod house to the Dunes Restaurant. The Staff can drive u there though.
So many nice things I could say about this place,,from staff welcoming us on arrival to the beautiful breakfast,the rooms are something very special and can honestly say it was the comfiest bed!nothing was too much for the staff here,will absolutely be back and would recommend this beautiful place to anyone
