Disliked: Staff & service
Arrived late at night, tired and hungry only to be met with a «less than friendly» receptionist, I got the distinct impression that she wanted me out of sight as soon as possible. No smile, no hospitality whatsoever. Really? Where do they find these people?
The staff I met in the morning was nice and polite. No complaints.
The overall impression:
nice rooms,
breakfast is not included.
Leaving is a much better experience than arriving.

Breakfast at the hotel was good. Molly’s Restaurant also offered tasty dinners. Parking was nearby as advertised. Check-in and check-out were smooth. Getting to our room was like going through a maze but the room was clean. Enjoyed our stay.
Had a lovely 3 night stay at The Douglas. Which was less than an 5 minute walk from many amenities. Arrived 2 hours early for check in but our room was ready and we managed to check in right away, receptionist very helpful and friendly. Our room albeit a bit dated, was clean and fresh. The buffet breakfast, had plenty choice, and everything was of good quality. Dining staff extremely attentive and made sure nothing was running out. All in all a great experience at this hotel, and would have no reason to not recommend it. My partner and I will certainly be staying here on our next trip to Aberdeen.
Our stay was pleasant enough. The hotel is clean and well presented after some recent re-decoration. It is well placed in downtown Aberdeen. Breakfast isn’t great as the ingredients are not top quality.
A lot of reviews of this property say it is dated and too hot; I don’t disagree that the room had an old-time charm about it, but it wasn’t a bad thing, it was however very warm, and a provided fan for the room wouldn’t be a bad idea.
The checkin staff was lovely.
Wonderful place. Staff was awesome and extremely helpful. Thank you charlotte for helping us navigate to your car park!! Breakfast was good and smoke. Room was comfortable. A bit of outside noise but it stopped before it got too late. Nice location. Our room was big.
It's a very fine hotel, with a warm atmosphere and very friendly, helpful staff.
The sneaky back door down into "Malone's" on Shiprow lends a strange thrill to popping down for a pint...
Friendly relaxed hotel in a good location for exploring Aberdeen.
Very nicely decorated big bedroom & bathroom, big comfy bed.
Been on a 2 week trip in Scotland staying at 6 hotels & the housekeeping & cleanliness of this room was by far the best.
It's an older hotel in a very convenient location (bus, train and ferry terminals within two blocks) It has been updated and is very clean and comfortable!
Located on a busy street with no area to park for check-in, better pre-check-in instructions needed for arriving travellers, night parking inadequate. But all staff were friendly and helpful. Close to the very good maritime museum.
enjoyed our stay at the Douglas Hotel. However, it was a Saturday night and the bar crowd was very noisy. Seems they had a good time.

Condition of the room was at best poor room was hot and stuffy so you had to open the window and the noise from outside was absolutely appalling the room was small with cracks on the walls window ingos were rotten and the tiles on the bathroom floor were missing grout and the finish of the room was incredibly poor
