Elgin Kintore Two Nights

Lovely staff, very clean room and public areas, decent breakfast, nice biscuits to go with the in-room tea n coffee and plenty of shower gel, shampoo and soap. As others have said, the hotel is tired, in places, but clean. As with most hotels, there's an eco sign about towels, on the floor if you want them changed, but as with most hotels, they were changed regardless. A small niggle, but as we were only there two nights, we didn't want them changed. Yes, I would come back for a return visit.

Originally I was a little worried when we found out that our room had no window--only a skylight--and it was rather warm. But Nicola (hope I've spelled that right) very kindly found us a much nicer room. Breakfast was good and the staff were all unfailingly pleasant and helpful to deal with. I like the history behind the place. It's been a hotel since the 1850s. It could do with a few touch-ups here and there but it was very comfortable and the fact that there was a bar right in the building was great when you wanted a Scotch at the end of a day.

Staff were helpful, but the first night we stayed out radiator started banging at 3am and didn’t stop all night. No one to fix until about 7am. Paper thin walls and could hear next door snoring. They upgraded us to a quieter room after breakfast. Then the new room had no hot water. So had to go to the old room to have a hot shower. Perks of an old building. Breakfast was nice both mornings.

Terrible place

The hotel smells damp,on entering the hotel fiurst thing you think is it need a good clean and lick of paint, the rooms are very dirty 1.Bathroom, there is deep mold all around the bath, not able to shower due to shower head holder being broken, cold tap on sink leaks, 2. Bedroom, wardrobe broken and back coming off, skirtings very dirty, under the bed has definitely not been hovered for a long time, thick dirt under it, notbthat i got much sleep but woke up with bites probably from dust mites, 3. General hotel condition floors are creeky, and uneven and very dirty and worn. It wasn't expensive but we should expect clean at least

Nice friendly hotel

I had a great stay at the Kintore Arms hotel, the check in was quick, friendly and uncomplicated. The room was great and suited my needs and the facilities in the room were ok with only just the tv remote not working due to batteries being done but wasn't too worried about the tv and I am sure reception would of changed them if asked. The dinner menu was great with plenty of choice and the steak pie I had was great with a generous portion of veg to go with it. The meal was served in good time and the service was friendly. The breakfast was great with plenty choice at a reasonable price for what you got. I would definitely stay here again if staying in Inverurie.

Pleasant hotel

The hotel was very nice but with a staircase and no lift. I had to ask for help to take my suitcase up two flights of stairs. The room was clean - good service. However, I was disappointed that I did not have a bath tub since the hotel seemed to advertise that the rooms had bath tubs and I chose it because I wanted some comfort before starting a care and nursing live-in job in the area. There was only a shower.

Would use again.

A little tired in places e.g. bathroom flooring had obviously had dampness issue previously, the key in lock was a struggle (turns out a known issue so why not already fixed?), etc. Otherwise service etc was very good. Can't knock the value.

Although clean, the carpet, furniture was worn or damaged. The plumbing was noisy all night, the en suit bathroom was industrial- a bit like one you would find at a service station, you could also hear everything going on outside the door and finally we came back to find that our door was open after we had left it locked. It could be a great hotel - there are few in Inverurie and no other 3 stars we could see. They need to spend money investing in both the look and feel of the hotel.
