Overall Ratings & Reviews Macdonald Pittodrie House

Beautiful room lovely grounds friendly staff

Friendly staff first at the reception. The room unfortunately wasn't the best. It was small for the price, and had light coming through the main door because of a large gap at the bottom at night. It was really noisy with the music and hallway until late as there was a wedding perhaps. The breakfast experience unfortunately wasn't the best. We got a really nice table with a view, but surprisingly the staff who took us to the table didn't clean the table as it still had a bit of a mess from the previous people staying there. We got toasted bread which felt wasn't freshly toasted. The service felt rushed and some staff felt they were quite under pressure maybe because of being short staffed?

Friendly staff, clean hotel. Great setting and location.

This place is old and run down. The WiFi is non existent and the hotel has no elevator so be prepared to schlepp your luggage up a bunch of stairs. Our room overlooked the garbage bins ( and we booked our room 11 months ago). The best part of stay was a server name

Beautiful property and comfortable stay, though the bathrooms could be modernized. We also enjoyed the breakfast but were disappointed that the walled garden was closed for wandering afterwards.

Lovely place, out of the way, grounds great, loads of walks

The setting for this hotel was amazing, the building and grounds were lovely, but once inside the hotel is very tired, i know its old and probably part of its old charm but tread bare carpets and broken bathroom floor tiles plus stains on the bedroom carpet in my opinion really lets it down plus the breakfast at £25 a head is really below par.

Dinner menu a bit restricted and £25 for breakfast a bit steep with no continental option .

Hotel needs some upgrades!

Had great service from Oliva during dinner and was very accommodating and helpful .

We had an amazing stay. The house and grounds are beautiful. Highly highly recommend.

Turned up at 20:15 after a 13 hour day looking forward to a late dinner but the kitchen was closed! No information telling me this restriction, only an email from the hotel encouraging me to book a table in the restuarant. Staff helped where they could and were great but I had to phone a take away delivery which didn't arrive until another hour later.

Amazing location, views and great food.

Alway love to stay at this hotel. Fabulous staff, Richard & Emma are brilliant. Unfortunately I won’t be back and loved staying here. Thought £25 for breakfast was ridiculous considering I only had a coffee and scrambled eggs on both days and I asked for a child’s portion as don’t eat much in the morning. I normally book B&B, but must have missed it on Hotels.com this time. Maybe a paid menu for breakfast would tempt me back, but not the way it stands unfortunately.

Beautiful location and building. The staff were fantastic, warm, friendly and helpful. The food was disappointing, which let the staff down

Historic buildings

Would have liked a better menu

Staff are always five star here and I’ll continue to stay. Many thanks for the upgrade again. Amazing large room.

Great location if you plan to hike up Bennachie.

Was given an upgrade and had yet again another delicious dinner. Staff are five star and will definitely be back. Thank you so much for the upgrade and lovely room.
