    Nothing, I liked it all.

    Trendy bar, great food, unique rooms that look.cool and fun. Big rooms with large bathroom. Tremendous food in the restaurant. Breakfast was also excellent.

    I wouldn’t want to make a big thing off it but in the shower which was a really great downpour from a rain head I really wanted a seperate wand ( hose) to reach those undercarriage parts the rain head doesn’t reach very well. If entering from the rear car park it’s best I learned to leave the baggage in the car until you can check in and receive the room pass otherwise you have to climb a high spiral staircase as no entry to the elevator without the pass. Once given you can use the lift to go back to the car and retrieve the luggage making it easier to access your room.

    Everything was perfection beautiful extremely clean hotel with luxurious carpeted hallways and into the room as well. The standard room was perfect for me, luxury in my world great furniture in the wardrobe and desks comfortable chairs and a great air conditioning system keeping the room cool or heated as required. The television provided great viewing with sky sports and movie channels. The whole place is spotless and very attentive helpful staff who couldn’t do enough for anyone staying. The food was superb at dinner, I don’t eat breakfast but friends said it was great with an amazing array of dishes on offer. My beef noodle salad was a stunning dish I wanted to have more but went for the bbq pork chop served sliced with prunes peaches and a cider sauce. We ordered a side of new potatoes to go along with it but they were too much as the meal was very filling. A great stay and one I’ll make again

    Malmaison Aberdeen is the perfect base for us as we have family nearby. We walk into town for daytrips, but there is a great bus service outside. We adore the chic décor (especially the wallpapers and the cellar!) This is a repeat visit to Mal Aberdeen and we can't recommend the hotel enough. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and admittedly, we have only had breakfast in the main restaurant and bar lunches as we are usually with family for evening meals. That said, the food we have had has always been exceptional. The staff make the hotel. From all the FOH team, who have always been so welcoming no matter the time we arrive, to the F&B team who are flawless in their delivery of service and knowledge of the wine list! The hotel is the perfect spot for a quieter stay as it's just outside of town with a free (small) car park to the rear, backing onto residential areas. Hence our repeat stays!

    Nothing, honestly. Everything was great! One small thing: our room (although beautiful) was located in the older part of the building where there is no lift. Several flights of stairs to climb to get to our room. If stairs are an issue for you, make sure your room in near the lift

    All of the meals were wonderful; our breakfast was included the cost of our stay and was well worth it. The selection from the "buffet" and menu were more than ample The room was quite large and had many extras: robe, slippers, bathtub. Very, very nice

    Beware- the Booking.com answer to the frequently asked question of what half-board consists of is completely wrong. Is does NOT give you £50 pp from dinner menu. Despite my booking saying”half board” reception staff insisted it was actually db&b which only allows you 2 courses from a paper menu , with supplements for some choices, and doesn’t include extras such as chips, vegetables or salad.

    Lovely decor, great restaurant staff and delicious food.

    The pillows were God awful and pretty dead- please replace. No elevator to my knowledge-may be an issue for someone with physical disabilities. Be sure to get clarification on the parking in the rear of the building.

    It was trendy and modern-liked the theme. Very spacious! Loved the claw tub in the living area.

    Bathtub out in room was weird yo me. If you aren’t keen on walking it is a bit far from stores and markets

    Very nice place, large room, great bar and restaurant looked nice as well. The gym was actually nicer than the picture. The place has some quirks but also lots of charm. Parking onsite was nice. All staff at front and in bar were great, friendly and responsive.
