Craig’s hotel

Very nice hotel, close to the airport, friendly staff. Yes some aircraft noise but not too bad. Some nice walks nearby with local amenities.
Simon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice quiet room with the bonus of a hand held shower head in the ensuite (as well as fixed head if that is what you like). Staff were pleasant and helpful. Plenty of parking space. Good breakfast. We attended a private dinner party in the library one evening and we also had an excellent meal in their own restaurant the following evening.

Good Choice for us

Staff were very good and helpful. Good breakfasts and great to have server come and take orders for a freshly cooked breakfast. It was very convenient to the P & J Live venue where the event we were going to was held. Nice bar and prices reasonable

Clean room. All the staff are really friendly. The hotel is handy for P & J Live as it's not even a 10 minute easy walk. Would definitely stay again if up to P & J
Alistair, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very pleasant staff, they couldn’t do enough for you but a few problems with the TV and room was cold on arrival. Good breakfast.
Amanda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is nice but could do with some updates

The stay was comfortable and warm. The food selection is very basic and not much to choice however it was reasonable.
chris, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice Hotel and very helpful staff. Room was clean and warm. Ideal for show at P&J Live with a short walk along a direct path. The menu looked good for evening meal but couldn't get a table so would suggest pre-booking a table.
Michael, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel was ok, although the staff could have been more attentive. The food options for dinner were great, and I did find that service better than the hotel in general. The room was quite small and the 'wet room' concept never works well!
Shirley, 4-night trip

Overnight stay at Craighaar

Arrived late and the hotel car park was full with one very tight space by a pillar. Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was ok but a bit sparse on choice and no hash browns.
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Amazing Hotel

We stayed for 1 night in a twin room which was great for us. Beds were lovely and comfy plenty of pillows and blankets if needed. Tea and coffee was good in the room with hot chocolate and shortbread yum yum lol . Shower was great plenty of room to hang up clothes in wardrobe. Breakfast was amazing I had smoked haddock and poached eggs which were amazing. Filtered coffee plus apple juice also plenty of other options for breakfast and continental. Staff were all amazing and very helpful will definitely stay again when watching a band or comedian as short walk to venue.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great variety at breakfast. Choice of continental buffet, including overnight oats. Then, as part of the B&B deal, could also get a hot breakfast as well. Bar cosy, with a lovely open fire. Seems a popular local venue for functions. Staff cheerful and helpful despite the hotel being full and functions on. Note, no lift so be prepared to carry bags up stairs. Rooms very warm but windows do open. Area is quiet apart from the planes. They were noisy if your window is open. Bathrooms look like they have been upgraded recently and are lovely. Rooms are a little tired though have all essentials. Bed was a little hard. However, taking all this into account, I would definitely stay again. Good value for money. 10 minute dawdle up to P&J. Free parking as well.
Donna, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy and free parking, plenty of spaces. The hotel has a rustic feel and is clean with very friendly staff and the food is excellent. Rooms are nice, yes you do here aircraft but once the airport closes it’s a very quiet area. There are some nice walks nearby too.

Brian, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were very friendly and professional and nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel is ideally located as a base for touring or for the airport. I personally found the noise of the aeroplanes too loud as the room shook at times when they went past and that is the only reason I would not personally stay here again. The room was comfortable and spacious ...bathroom modern but the bedroom itself slightly dated. Was clean and tidy throughout. The car park is free which is always a bonus in Aberdeen. I did not eat at the hotel so cannot comment on the food.

We booked for convenience, but were really surprised by how great this place was, esp for the price. Gentleman at the front desk was great as was our waiter, and room was spotless
