The bedroom decor was reasonably modern, the ensuite needed renovation, it looked very tired and dated

A really excellent stay. Rooms well and very comfortably decorated, quiet and spacious. Food of very high standard, everything at breakfast cooked fresh to order / nothing sitting waiting. Beyond what you’d usually expect. Complemented by really really nice staff; evenings and mornings. I recommend

Excellent location for transportation by bus. The only thing that needs improving is the internet service which was on and off during my 4-day stay. The staff did acknowledge the issue and say they were urgently working on it. Overall, excellent location and service!

The Cults Hotel is an Old Tradition hotel with a nice restaurant and bar. Not a very big hotel but very neat and clean, besides the staff are very helpful. The breakfast and food quality is excellent. If you want to enjoy Scottish hospitality, this hotel is the right choice! I will definitely recommend it.

Not bad
The bar and restaurant area is well presented and the staff are friendly. The room was FREEZING. I’m a native to Aberdeen and I had to sleep fully dressed. There’s a radiator in the room but no way to put it on. I put the radiator on in the bathroom to try and get warm but it didn’t flow in to the bedroom. The radiator cover was also broken and therefore it looked bad and unkempt.

Didn’t like the automatic air fresher in the room which was overly powerful. Hotel is otherwise nice and clean. Not much around hotel but on frequent bus routes into Aberdeen

Dissapointingly small room with no floor space for 1 suitcase. More than half the lights in the roof not working. Shower is good as long as the hotel is quiet otherwise you dance between hot and cold. Breakfast is fantastic and staff are friendly. Bed was firm, another plus.

Nice quiet little hotel.
Very comfortable room. Absolutely roasting day so far too hot at night Had to leave curtains open to let cool outside air in. Nothing the hotel could have done about that so no fault there. Shower was very powerful, very refreshing. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Would definatly reccomend.

Hotel is in a nice area and easily accessible from motorway. The younger staff were very helpful and attentive particularly the young woman who checked me in and the younger staff in the restaurant. The menu and food was ok quality and price. However there is no parking at the hotel and only limited parking on the road outside the hotel for 45 minutes. There are a few spaces in front of the shops where you can park but not many. The hotel itself is in need of an upgrade. The carpets in the corridor and on the stairs and the decor is not great. There is a lift but you apparently need permission to use it and turn it on. There is a notice on the lift door. I was on the second floor which was ok for me but I had to carry bags etc upstairs. The room was described as Deluxe with balcony . It is basic with a very small balcony overlooking an allotment and tennis court above. No privacy so had to keep curtains closed at all times which made the room dark. I would avoid these rooms. Rooms at the front appeared to be brighter. It was an ok stay but you can definitely get better and more central for the same price nearer town.

Well located but tired premises. I had dined in the Cults in the past and chose to stay here four years later on the basis of that good experience. Unfortunately, the hotel accommodation feels tired and in need of a refurbishment. I did not dine there on this occasion but the facilities look good.

Great breakfast. Pity about ‘thin walls’
Very pleasant reception. Room unavailable with view at front… although not very busy at breakfast. Our room overlooked an allotment at back. Reason for poor score was the fact that we could hear every word spoken in the adjoining room-I’m deaf and they were not loud! Breakfast was freshly cooked-poached eggs perfect.

It was kind of OK. The TV didn’t work on many channels, the bed noisy and uncomfortable, no shelf in the bathroom to put any of your toiletries. Good things the balcony, wardrobe and amenities.
