Right in the heart of Aberdeen, the perfect location for shopping and eating out (although the food in the Globe is great so why would you?). Good place to stay for concert goers too. Close to the train and bus station for easy travelling.

Would stay here again.
Very clean accomodation. In a bustling pub with a friendly atmosphere. Central location only 300 yards from Aberdeen Music Hall / Union Street, and close to HMT where we were heading to a show, so it was really convenient. The room was small but clean and well presented.

Check in was easy and friendly. We liked our room; though it was slightly dated it was quite clean. Only complaint was the drain plug wouldn’t release so had to keep that top component off during the stay. Would stay here again if ever in the area.

Lively Saturday.
Really enjoyed my stay. Convenient public parking nearby. All staff were friendly helpful and efficient. Expect a bit of noise from the live music in the bar if you are staying Friday or Saturday. Tip - go down and enjoy it. Bar is pleasant, well stocked and good value. Good standard and value pub style food. I'll certainly be back.

We loved the atmosphere and the staff. They were wonderful and friendly, always up to answer a question or talk about where you wanted to visit. Also, they were willing to accommodate us on anything. Even if it meant going out of their way! The location of the inn is awesome as well!! It is off the main, main road, however its easy walking to the center of the city. The rooms were nice and cozy and just perfect for a stay.

Nice hotel for short stay
Room was too small for any more than 2/3 night stay. Not enough space for clothes for much more than that. The fridge takes up space in the only hanging wardrobe. Continental breakfast is in your room (cereal, milk, orange juice and croissants) as well as tea/coffee facilities, but these are housed on a deep tray on the only small table in the room, with one chair, so for two of you, it's breakfast in bed with no tray. We had a few issues on our first night as the room seemed to be set up for a single occupancy- 1 hand towel/shower towel and no milk or glasses for the orange juice. Our TV didn't work either. The staff sorted out the milk and towel problem straight away, but we never did get glasses for the orange juice and had to use our coffee cups and then wash them out for our coffee in the morning. On our second day one of the staff attempted to sort theTV, but no luck, so hopefully the next guests are not planning their stay around quiet nights with the telly. (Wasn't a problem for us, we were there to see the sights but it would have been nice to catch up with the news over breakfast). The staff were all very cheery and friendly. Overall this hotel suited our purpose, but wouldn't stay any longer than 3 nights.

Wallace Room - ask for another
Had stayed before and had a good sized room and bath/shower room at the front of the Inn, not this time, it was the last room, apparently but no reason to doubt it, it was at the back overlooking the beer garden/smoking area. It was very very small, double bed against the wall and window, end of the bed had about 1ft room to walk down to the window. Sort of dressing table with the tea/coffee tray on it so no other room. Space for hanging clothes, 4 hangers but no where to put other clothes. Bathroom was small, small sink as well, so small the kettle would not fit under it to fill it with water, had to use a cup. Bed was not very comfortable and a depressed mattress where you got into bed, if you went to the middle or other side you just rolled back down. This room would be much better if it just had a single bed in it at least you would have some room,

Tiny Rooms!
Don't stay here if you have Luggage - we could only open our bags on the bed as there was no floor space! Don't stay here if you have a car - on street parking only, and the meters are hungry - £1 for 20 minutes! They have live bands Friday & Saturday, so be prepared for the noise! The room also needed repair - the window dash ropes were broken, so we had to stuff a rolled towel in it to get some fresh air - the room was stifling! Minimal hanging space, and half of the wardrobe area was taken up with the fridge!

Nice room a bit noisy till pub shut.
Room was nice only issue was the noise as we were right above the live music. We did pick to stay above a pub so I suppose we can't complain.

Nice, pub hotel in the city centre.
Really nice pub hotel, had a good atmosphere and friendly staff. Small but clean room. Only inconvenience was the lack of long stay parking areas, which has more to do with the city centre itself.

NOISY, NOISY, NOISY!!!!
In fact, this is not hotel, it is an Rock Concert Hall. This " hotel" is not propriety for tourist who travel many hours and what relaxation! The food was great, testy, bigger portions. The bad was good and clean. The room was warm. I stayed there for few hours ,but I changed the hotel .
