Very good

Buffet food is very little. Canned fruits used to put on the plates for customers are rotten, have bubbles and are mushy, which is not checked by the hotel. The room is very small for a family of four people, the price is for four people. Will not come back here again.
The breakfast was as expected, but didn't change from day to day. There was poor ventilation in the bathroom so there was mold on the ceiling of the bathroom. There was no conditioner so I had to go buy some, which was unexpected. Still a decent place to stay if you want no surprises and are on a budget to eat breakfast at the hotel.
Property was clean, staff was friendly and helpful. Close enough to bus service so we were able to get around pretty easily. If you're going to Aberdeen and looking for a place to stay, give some serious thought to the Holiday Inn express! I'd stau there again without hesitation.
We had a great stay at the Holiday Inn Express. It is situated conveniently for town centre shopping and 5 minutes' walk will take you to Union Square Shopping Centre. Our room was spacious with a comfortable bed and a really well-appointed bathroom.
The breakfast was excellent. It is a treat to have decent orange juice and excellent, strong Americano coffee. Great choice of both cold and hot breakfast items.
Staff were really helpful both at reception and in the restaurant. A great stay!
Convenient situation. We were in Aberdeen for the Art Fair which was within easy walking distance. Parking arrangements have changed since our last stay.

No understanding of service
Booked a parking spot but not told it was in low emission zone. Then given useless information - directed to a parking lot that has a maximum of stay of 12 hours. Asked for a quiet room, put right on street.
Perfect location. Paid parking right at the hotel £10 a day but need to book in advance. Lovely welcoming staff

This hotel is located at a very convenient location, with plenty of dining options at walkable distance. It is a 15 min walk from the Aberdeen railway station and all the usual tourist attractions are also within a 15-30minute walking distance. The hotel itself is a bit dated but clean and the staff are really friendly and helpful. Our check in was delayed and I think it’s because they have some staffing issues but the staff more than made up with their courtesy.
Breakfast is good with the usual options at all Holiday Inn Express hotel.
I would recommend this hotel and would definitely visit again.
Please note there are only 10 parking spaces and this is charged at £10 per night. Hotels.com should specify this.
Excellent area and only 5 mins to main pubs etc.
First class (for the price) accommodation. Really liked it.
Only negative was the breakfast fruit. Apples soft. Bananas brown. No choices of yoghurt, only plain.
Apart from that highly recommended stay
Ideal for Aberdeen city centre, just off Union Street

Was happy with our stay, breakfast was excellent! Rooms were a little outdated but generally ok. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to check into parking before you come as there are limited spots at the hotel.
It started with a warm welcome hospitality from the staff on night duty who was excellent and lovely to us. The rooms were clean and with most of the things required for use or to have when you check in. Breakfast was five star as i can't find any fault. The beds were comfortable and rooms were clean. The overall ambience at the hotel was marvelous.
