Stayed two nights 17-18 April in ground floor room allegedly for disabled. No room to put any clothes unless you moved the one chair, windows taped up with Duck tape and very dirty. First night was requested to dine at 6.30 or at 8pm as there was a coach party of 40 to be served, neither of which suited us.... More

There is an excellent hotel trying to get out here - but it is not quite there yet. We dropped in on a short break and the setting is delightful - close to the Dee and on Ballater's pretty town square with its large old church in the middle. Entering the Deeside Inn one is immediately struck by two things.... More

We spent 3 nights at The Deeside Inn recently and had a thoroughly relaxing time. The service was great - nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Our room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Bathroom could do with a 'facelift' in comparison to the high quality of the bedroom. Welcoming reception area with comfortable sofas and an open... More

Read a number of reviews and did not sound to bad. Paid £99 for one night double B&B midweek in May. Very dated and poor quality with limited facilities. Toilet dod not flush properly and bathroom door did not close. Heating and window also broke. Refused to change room. Breakfast was not the best either. Nothing like the photos on... More

I was so touched to receive such a terrific welcome on my arrival into Ballater on my Land's End to John O'Groats challenge. I enjoyed some great company, a tasty meal and a great night's rest. Thank you to Joanna and her kind staff for making me so welcome in Ballater. Shame the Queen didn't pop in for a bevvy... More

We stayed at the Deeside Inn and found the staff to be very friendly and welcoming but the rooms were extremely plain and if you are from the USA you will think it could use renovating. The plumbing fixtures are very out of date, and the decor could use some improvement. We had to ask for a hairdryer which they... More

A special web site offer took us to Ballater and the Deeside Inn during the last weekend in April. The hotel like most of same vintage could do with brightening up but first impressions of reception and lounge were of comfort rather then a la mode style but that suits us - being paid up the cardi and comfy shoes...

We stayed here for 1 night and glad it was only one night. We have stayed here several times before and have enjoyed our stays there. It is a 3 star hotel but the service we received was not satisfactory. We were booked in for DBB and dinner was served in the lounge bar which we didn't expect as dinner... More

We stayed at the Deeside Inn March 9-14. We were booked to stay in a local cottage, but upon our arrival found it unsatisfactory for many reasons. We found the Deeside Inn as we were frantically looking for last minute accommodation--what a treasure! We were very warmly greeted by Mharia (?spelling) and shown a perfectly fitted room. She was extremely... More
