Just had lunch there staff to busy chatting to each other about their own personal business to take our order waited ages when food arrived soup was tasteless and ciabatta was stone cold and salad was drowned in dressing. For the price we paid standards and service were very disappointing.

Its a great venue especially if your having a small wedding there.Johnston gardens is a couple of minutes away and ideal for the couple portraits.

Stayed at this hotel twice now for work and its definitely bit of a hidden gem for hotel's in Aberdeen. Rooms are excellent and so is the food. They are also dog friendly for a one of charge of £15 which is much better than other hotels I've stayed. Would definitely recommend

Really nice hotel, friendly staff. Didn't try the food but restaurant looked good. Bit noisy at times as there was a wedding on while we were there but not too intrusive. Very clean.

We had our wedding here at the Palm Court in August 2024. Sharlene was our wedding planner and she was so helpful, nothing was ever too much trouble. She made sure all our thoughts and opinions were listened too and valued and advised us through the whole process. When it came to the day we could not fault a thing, the venue was beautiful, the food was fantastic and the staff were amazing! We were all very well looked after and everything went without a hitch. The staff went about and beyond on the day, even driving us into the city centre for photos when our taxi never turned up. We can honestly say thank to the Palm Court we had the best day of our lives! 🤍

We recently celebrated my mother-in-law’s surprise 80th at The Palm Court. They couldn’t have been more helpful or welcoming. We had it in the Sanderson Room, set with its own private bar, which was the perfect space for our large family gathering. Caitlin and Jena were absolutely fantastic. They made sure we were looked after the whole afternoon. Beverly was really helpful when we arrived too, and made sure we had everything we needed. My mother-in-law had the most incredible and memorable celebration and we have The Palm Court to thank for that.

The staff at the palm court have been absolutely fantastic, spoke to Sharlene about hosting a wedding reception in the Sanderson room and she was amazing and so incredibly helpful. She walked us through every step of the process. On the day the room we were presented with was absolutely beautiful, the place was immaculate and thoughtfully laid out. All the guests and ourselves were so impressed with the food and the overall service provided I really can’t praise them enough. A huge thank you to all involved at the Palm Court for making our day that extra bit special!

If you want to start the year off right... a visit to the Palm Court is a must. It's a tradition for us on the 1st of January in between visiting family to pop past for a spot of lunch. It is such a warm and welcoming restaurant and the staff are brilliant, so kind and friendly. They have a wide variety of large meals, roasts, and lighter bites such as soup, toasted sandwiches, and baked potatoes, which makes for an ideal nibble throughout the day. I would advise booking ahead of time as both the bar and restaurant fill up fast and with free parking onsite it's perfect for special occasions, coach parties or just a general catch up with friends. It also looks like a wonderful place to stay as well but have only ever tried out their food. The steak sandwich and chicken ciabatta are delicious, served in large portions, and served within no time at all. It really does fill a New Years Day hunger! If you want to think outside the box for food in Aberdeen, the Palm Court has it all!

This once decent hotel has gone downhill now faster than a speeding toboggan. The bar service remains decent but don't think about sitting in a locals seat! My main gripe however is just how awful the food is.There appears to be no one checking the quality of the plated offerings before leaving the kitchen. Our experience recently was that all of us were very disappointed. Also the young schoolgirls they use as waitresses are absolutely hopeless. You almost have to stand on your table and yell to have any chance of getting their attention. They then have the nerve to add a discretionary tip to the bill. That was removed quicker than a flash once noticed by us however. No idea about the rooms but if staying there best to eat at Oor Wullies chip shop down the hill.

Nice hotel, nice staff. There is no elevator, but we already knew that. The hotel is very winding, which is almost likeable and makes the building unique. We had a room facing the back street, but the traffic noise was manageable, at least at night. The quality of the food in the restaurant and also the breakfast was very good. Moving in, the waiting time between ordering and receiving breakfast was very long (about 30 minutes), which means that you should have thought carefully about what you want to order beforehand, because there is no time for a second course. We didn't find a good bus connection into the city. So we had to go by car. Parking is still available in Aberdeen and is also affordable.

Stayed here for a few days for a wee treat. Handy for bus into Aberdeen too. Staff were just a joy to deal with. Food was lovely and prices reasonable for a hotel. A good selection of drinks and cocktails. There was some deals available which you should check out on the website if going. Our room was nice and modern with a lovely drench shower that was easily changed to an ordinary shower if you wished.

My partners parents stayed at the hotel and they enjoyed their stay. We also attended the restaurant together for the steak night. The reason for 4 stars, they said the room was clean and well looked after. The members of staff working there were lovely. The price is decent for the stay and they didn’t have any complaints really. Now, the reason it didn’t receive 5 stars is due to the hallways being quite old and in some areas when stepping you can feel the floor being old and soft like you will fall through. The restaurants food was okay but the seafood linguini I would say is a no no. The calamari rings weren’t cleaned of properly and still had strings inside of them. The mussels tasted fine but not the best. The burgers were tasty and the fries that came with them was good. Desserts were also good. Members of staff were friendly to the dog and provided our dog with food and water which was nice. The atmosphere was nice but I do wish that less locals would use that place as a pub and just sit there and watch sports on the projector, I think that’s what made the atmosphere less nice. Overall we did enjoy eating there, and my partners parents like staying there but the rooms are quite small and are smaller than in pictures, some people might find the room claustrophobic.

Friendly staff. Warm comfortable room with tea & coffee facilities & more. The cost of food from the pub is a bit high if you're solo (maybe manageable for 2 people), the breakfast is worth it though. Also, they have events going on some days.

Had 30minutes to kill, walked in, sat down service was quick on point and plate cleared promptly after. Excellent ceasar salad, shame there wasn’t more on the plate :) Always like the atmosphere it just relaxed.

Was positively surprised by this hotel. Location wise it is in the city center in the area with many bars, cafes and restaurants (so might be a little bit noisy on weekends, but I’m a good sleeper so didn’t bother me at all), and all major sightseeing places within walking distance. Room was clean, well equipped and seemed like it was recently renovated. I didn’t meet anyone from the staff during my 2 night stay, all communication was through messages and calls, but instructions were super clear, so didn’t have any issues of finding the hotel and checking into the room. There is also storage area in the hotel, so you can leave your luggage before check in / after check out and explore the city luggage free. Considering the price, location and facilities, I give this hotel 5/5

Very disappointing. They close at 9:30pm on a Friday, yet we came in at 8:30pm tonight and they said they were closed. I guess the manager had the night off...won't be returning. Don't forget to blame "lack of footfall" when you tell P&J why you're closing. *Update* Oh, they've gone out of business 3 months later. What a surprise. 🤦‍♂️

No problems here. Food wasn't bad at all. The calzone looked good and there was plenty of all the courses. Average, middle of the road Italian. 4 stars for the food. However, let down a little by the service. All very pleasant but we were never asked for a second drinks' order despite sitting with empty glasses for 15 minutes. Also, at the end of the meal we got fed up waiting to pay and had to go to the till in the end. Only other recommendation would be to get draught beer rather than bottled please.
