We stayed for several nights in early July. Had the Elvis Juice suite. Big room that we very well appointed. The free check in beer was nice and the staff in the pub were extremely nice.
Beautiful room (basically a flat!!) and fantastic location! The best nights sleep we have ever had as the bed, pillows and duvets were luxury! Super dog friendly as well! My partner, doggo and I will definitely be back!
Nice welcome drafts while waiting for our checking in. As people have written, you need to go inside to brewdog bar where you usually order your drinks to check-in, and then you will be brought to the hotel next to it, as the brewdog hotel is located on one of the floors which belongs to another hotel. Nothing wrong with that though, we were very happy with our room, the deco, the record player, the guitar, the books about beers, the free candies in the corridor. We had a bedroom and a living room with kitchen. Can highly recommend it to people who like draft beers.
We visited this time last year for a special occasion (forgot to write a review then but loved it so much I thought best to write one even if it’s late!) The staff were all really friendly, helpful and welcoming. Great service / food / beer. The room we had was great, loved the complimentary drinks and all of the little touches. Shower beer fridge and can holder was great fun to use. The bed was the most comfy bed I’ve ever slept in, had such a good few nights sleep! The only thing I’d say they could improve on was the breakfast bags - they’re a nice thought but we barely touched them (fruit wasn’t ripe and pastries were dry) - we ended up giving it to the homeless people down the street. Overall a great place to stay especially if you’re a big BrewDog fan and are visiting the nearby other bars and brewery!
Loved it! Great location in city centre Aberdeen - just figure out parking ahead of time. Check in at the actual Brewdog pub next to the hotel. The rooms are on the 2nd floor of the hotel next door. The Brewmaster suite is basically an apartment with a laundry in the kitchen area (this knowledge would have changed what we carted from the parking area to the room). Record player and guitar in the room were fantastic except someone nicked the ELO Greatest Hits record - shame on you :( Maybe gimmicky but I loved the Shower Beer fixture in the bath :)
Absolutely amazing for everything! Room is brilliantly quirky. Staff are very friendly. Location is ideal. Can't fault this place at all. The room is fantastic and very large. There's signs and pictures on the walls, an oven and a dishwasher. It's basically a really cool apartment for a great price and in a great location!
Absolutely antastic room. It was a large studio apartment with a very comfy bed and lots of nice little touches. Shower beer, plenty of snacks and a decent coffee machine. The location is central and very handy but unfortunately you can hear the clock chime every now and again but that is a minor detail. Would highly recommend and will definitely be staying again!
Very nice accommodations located on Union Street in central Aberdeen. Convenient to several pubs including Brewdog, Fierce, Malone's, etc. Modern stylish flat comfortable for a few days. Beware it's about 10 minutes from the train station and you'll have to lug your bags uphill to get there. Lift was out of service and the room is on the 3rd floor. Otherwise it's a good spot for decent money.
