This hotel is always a standby if I can't get into the Holiday Inn Express. But it is rapidly becoming my hotel of choice when I'm traveling for work. It has a great location on the north end of town and the staff is always very friendly. The TVs in the bedding in the room are very nice. The bathrooms... More

We arrived after driving through snow. Front desk help was great and quick. Room was a good size. Great little restaurant attached. Food was wonderful. Also friendly little bar for a late night drink. Great sleep followed.

I was surprised when we opened the door to our room. We had a very spacious room with a great bed. The TV was a good match for the room size. It is an older hotel but it is furnished nicely. I graded this hotel 4 out of 5. It is a hotel that will see me back again.

Thank-you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We sincerely apologize for any items you found in disrepair. While we were not made aware of any issue with the hot tub, we are pleased that the damage to the table was immediately reported, a loose table leg is not something we wish a guest to encounter.

I had a late flight so I didn't arrive to the hotel until after 11:30pm. The night clerk was very friendly and checked me in without incident. The room was spacious but definitely a little older. It was fine for a quick stay-over. However, at 8am the next morning, I was awakened by housekeeping knocking on every single door saying... More

Older hotel, rooms are clean but dated (esp. the bathrooms). Staff is friendly and helpful, but hotel is located across town from shopping, restaurants, etc so be ready to drive to get to anything. Pool area would be good for smaller children. Didn't eat in the restaurant but it was busy and seemed to be a popular place.

Thank you for taking the time and writing a review. The bathroom areas are on our capital expenditures list for the near future. We will continue to try and improve our hotel, unfortunatley we can't improve our location with reference to the shopping. Thanks again for staying with us. More

This its the second time my family has stayed at this hotel. Both times the pool was very crowded. There are many poolside rooms and several birthday parties going on in the pool area. There are many unmonitored kids as the adults are in the rooms or visiting in groups amongst themselves. Always kids roughhousing on the lily pad area... More

Thank you for your review. We certainly will continue to monitor the pool situation and see if we can come up with a way to take care of the problem. I certainly apologize that your children may have been hurt while trying to play on the lilly pads. Please accept my apologies. More

Enjoyed the stay at the Ramkota Aberdeen. Staff was very accomodating, rooms were OK for the price. Only drawback was the location was a bit away from major shopping and other attractions in Aberdeen.
