Hilton Grand Vacations Club Craigendarroch Suites Scotland

Ballater|1.34km from city centre
Really good stay but could have been better. Hotel was excellent and really well decorated for Christmas. Lobby was well presented and staff were welcoming. Doors into main entrance and heavy to open as we had a pram and a young child as well as bags. Wouldn’t be easily accessible by wheelchair but does have a ramp. We were given room 9 on the first floor which is accessed via a lift and then 3 separate flights of stairs. Having seen we had a baby, pram, bags and a 2 year old we were given this room. We couldn’t get the pram through the door without unfolding it so it was really really unhelpful to be given this room and the staff should clearly have known this. We changed rooms and had to move everything to the 3rd floor which was a nicer room and more accessible. The room was nice and well laid out and decorated to a high standard. We were in room 32 and I would stay here again. The hotel doesn’t serve breakfast. We had dinner in the bar and the food was of a pretty poor standard but we were hungry. I asked to have food from the restaurant menu served in the bar as we had kids as did our friends but was told it wasn’t possible. The bar service was poor and we cleared our own table a couple of times. No beer on draught due to an issue that would take a week to resolve I was told. The hotel was nice enough but the staff really need up the game.

The Commercial Hotel

Tarland
We have just had a lovely couple of nights at the Commercial hotel in Tarland - it was our first visit and we will most definitely return So many good things about this hotel, firstly I’ve got to say the food is absolutely fabulous! A huge plate with all home cooked fresh food, it was difficult to choose what we wanted as it was all so good. I can personally recommend the vegetarian shepherds pie, the steak pie, the schnitzel and the linguini - I think one of the best pub meals experience I’ve had, hats off to the chef! Then I must mention the customer service, really excellent, so friendly with a lot of good humoured banter ☺️The bar lady in particular was fabulously attentive and Mo who is on at breakfast time is a hoot and is really attentive and friendly, the breakfast is lovely too. The rooms are really clean and the bed (and pillows) as comfortable as anything Would really recommend this place, you would not be disappointed Thanks to all the staff for a memorable stay xx

Really good stay but could have been better. Hotel was excellent and really well decorated for Christmas. Lobby was well presented and staff were welcoming. Doors into main entrance and heavy to open as we had a pram and a young child as well as bags. Wouldn’t be easily accessible by wheelchair but does have a ramp. We were given room 9 on the first floor which is accessed via a lift and then 3 separate flights of stairs. Having seen we had a baby, pram, bags and a 2 year old we were given this room. We couldn’t get the pram through the door without unfolding it so it was really really unhelpful to be given this room and the staff should clearly have known this. We changed rooms and had to move everything to the 3rd floor which was a nicer room and more accessible. The room was nice and well laid out and decorated to a high standard. We were in room 32 and I would stay here again. The hotel doesn’t serve breakfast. We had dinner in the bar and the food was of a pretty poor standard but we were hungry. I asked to have food from the restaurant menu served in the bar as we had kids as did our friends but was told it wasn’t possible. The bar service was poor and we cleared our own table a couple of times. No beer on draught due to an issue that would take a week to resolve I was told. The hotel was nice enough but the staff really need up the game.

The Commercial Hotel

Tarland
We have just had a lovely couple of nights at the Commercial hotel in Tarland - it was our first visit and we will most definitely return So many good things about this hotel, firstly I’ve got to say the food is absolutely fabulous! A huge plate with all home cooked fresh food, it was difficult to choose what we wanted as it was all so good. I can personally recommend the vegetarian shepherds pie, the steak pie, the schnitzel and the linguini - I think one of the best pub meals experience I’ve had, hats off to the chef! Then I must mention the customer service, really excellent, so friendly with a lot of good humoured banter ☺️The bar lady in particular was fabulously attentive and Mo who is on at breakfast time is a hoot and is really attentive and friendly, the breakfast is lovely too. The rooms are really clean and the bed (and pillows) as comfortable as anything Would really recommend this place, you would not be disappointed Thanks to all the staff for a memorable stay xx
