Cults Holidays from £134

This is NOT a good stay! And the service even worse. Clearly at one point this was a vibrant bustling hub, when we stayey it was an absolute Ghost town. I was emailed to check in online, a bumpy process to say the leaset. After wasting 20 minutes on it I was told just to check in at the hotel. I saw 2 staff members for the duration of the stay, one told me to pay fo parking, the other told me it was free. I didnt take the chance and paid the overpriced parking, despite the underground parking looking like a scene from COD. The corridore on the way to the room had torn wall canvasses. The room itself had dirty carpets, cracked tiles in the bathroom, sticky handprints on the remote and the tv, brackets hanging where soap dispensers used to live once upon a time, one bed with a broken leg and another with missing slats and 2 sweets belonging to the previous occupent on the floor. I didnt use the restaurant so cant comment. I did offer the hotel the opportunity to address my issues, they responded with This ticket has been closed. Take from that what you will but after 3 weeks and 2 reminders I havent heard a peep. Aberdeen has far better to offer than this place!

Have stayed at Meldrum house at various times over 30 years and it never disappoints

A really nice old building. The staff were very welcoming and helpful, particularly the lady and young guy at breakfast (exception was the slightly snippy receptionist who we met on arrival - we never saw her again after that, perhaps a temp?). Our room was a cosy double - it was certainly cosy and quite small, but decor was nice and had everything we needed. Breakfast was excellent - the coffee machine was great, but the instructions were only in English and the German people in front of us had no idea how to use it. Some additional languages might be good given the range of nationalities staying there.

Nice swimming pool and sauna, ate dinner at the hotel and food was goo. Nice menu.

The property was incredibly spacious, it felt a little dated at first but the bedrooms and bathrooms have been updated to an excellent standard. The kitchen/lounge area was very well maintained and equipped with everything needed. We enjoyed a relaxing afternoon in the pool area, had an excellent steak in the brasserie and breakfast in the lounge before we left.
