Over a 10 day stay in the UK I spent three non-consecutive nights in the Thistle. I chose it for its convenience to the airport for late arrivals and very early flights. The staff was very helpful. Rooms were spotless. Food surprisingly good. I was surprised by the third night (a sunday) costing twice what the others had so make... More

I'd like to commend the staff who were seeing to the guests at the Papeterie Craft Retreat, they looked after our guests fantastically and went above and beyond. Very impressed! And thankyou for being so accommodating with me for my evening class.

Stayed here for a night as i have morning flight to catch the next morning. Decent hotel with cozy bed. Gym was terrible. Food was just average. Main attraction is the proximity to the airport which was a short 5min walk away Pretty near to the car rental center so you can also return the car and walk back to... More

Found myself stranded in Aberdeen (again) and not for the first time the Thistle came through for me. Staff consistently helpful and polite. Room spotless and comfortable. Morning breakfast selection vast and efficient. A well catered overnight stay. Will use again over neighbouring hotels.

Having just just stayed for a whole month, Quality service, friendly and helpfull staff. excellent buffet breakfasts with enough choice for anybodies tastes. convenient for airport, a short waik from the terminal. recommended. The only thing to be aware of is the cost of parking . which should be free if your a guest.
