The room was small but had all I needed. Being right near the City centre, it was convenient. They had free parking for me which would have been a problem otherwise.

I stayed for five nights and was delighted with the quality of the room facilities, breakfast and service. This is a budget hotel, but the double room I stayed in was lovely and clean with a fabulous en suite, a nice big TV and comfortable bed. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, with a great choice of cold and hot options, served buffet style. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, especially Reuben and the young woman who served breakfast. I had a fabulous stay and would definitely return whenever I need accommodation in Aberdeen. For an affordable, comfortable hotel ideally located in the city centre, this hotel is a perfect choice. I would highly recommend. Thank you to the staff team for a lovely stay!

Basic accommodation. Room had marks on the wall showing that it once had a television. Breakfast coffee was sachets of Nescafé and an urn of hot water. Had a Kellogg variety box of cereal and decided to skip the rest of breakfast and find a cafe.

It's says the Highland hotel but it was really was the Brentwood hotel or maybe oyo.. who knows. So confusing.. we just went to the address and Asked inside the oyo where the highland hotel was and told we were in the right place.. I asked if I could park on the street but they didn't mention they had a car park around the back.. it was pretty cheap so for one night it was okay and breakfast wasn't to bad either

The Highland Hotel (now merged with the Brentwood Hotel next door) is on Crown Street, less than ten minutes walk from Aberdeen bus and train station. It is just off Union Street which is the main central street in Aberdeen (the equivalent of Princes Street, Edinburgh - sort of!). We stayed for 3 days, breakfast included. The room, towels, and bed linen were spotless. But the whole hotel is 'tired'. There is no lift, but the reception man will carry up the cases for you. Usual tea and biscuits in the room. hairdryer, iron and board. and case stand. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, kind and cheerful. Responsive to any requests. The breakfasts were as good as in any hotel.(could be hotter at times) And they need a newer, quicker, toaster! The hotel is an excellent centre for travel in the Aberdeen area. Since 2 hotels have merged the room numbers are similar, so ensure which of the 2 hotels you are booked in at.

Room smelled musty. Wardrobe door had been damaged and was off it's rails. Water damage to the insides of the drawers. Staining on the walls. Carpets worn and shabby. Bathroom door was badly damaged. Shower took ages to heat up, and shower head caked in limescale. No housekeeping during our stay, no A/C in the room. Beds shoddy with thin, uncomfortable mattresses, torn and stained cushions on the beds. Only plus is that the location is fairly convenient for Union Street. Avoid at all costs.

The area was run down and scary. The photos of the room were taken at least 20 or 30 years ago. The web site said that there was free parking. There wasn’t and what there was was expensive and didn’t look safe. The tv did not work. To get to the room required winding through a maze of up and down stairs and uneven floors. I feel that the write up on Orbitz is dishonest and misleading. We tried to contact Orbitz because we didn’t feel safe there and were told that there were no refunds— no exceptions

The hotel cancelled our stay at 21:00 in the evening, leaving a hastily garbled message that our room wasn't available due to "maintenance." Interestingly, we were actually unable to attend due to a medical emergency, and were in the process of seeing if we could get a refund (though we knew it was unlikely) when they called us, obliviously unaware of our ongoing refund request. HOWEVER, they refused ALL refund requests from expedia, lying and saying that we HAD attended, and that they can confirm we were at the hotel and used the room. All this despite the fact that THEY cancelled on us, with a voicemail to prove it. And that I wasn't within 50 miles of the place. Look through the reviews, they've done this kind of thing before - as well as the fact that the hotel is not the Highland City Center, but actually "Oyo" hotel, or possibly Brentwood? This place is clearly a scam - either they have massively fewer rooms than they claim for whatever reason, or it is a simple scam where they frequently cancel on people for monetary benefit. Expedia refused to do anything about them, continuously siding with them for some reason, but did issue a discretionary refund on their end after about 2 hours on the phone. Goes without saying, but: Avoid.

Booking cancelled prior to our arrival unknown to us. Hotel blamed Expedia, reception not concerned about turning two over 70 years old out on the street with no accommodation. This was late in the afternoon. It was difficult to find accommodation which was much more expensive, which we expect to be refunded in full. Very disappointed and upset about the whole situation.
