The Forbes Arms Hotel, Bridge of Alford

My room was spacious and well-kept, but definitely in need of some improvements as the wallpaper was peeling and it was very cold. The hotel has a typical hunting, shooting, fishing vibe focusing on hospitality and food quality rather than pristine surroundings with welcoming staff. The stunning location overlooking a river view in the country is fantastic, although be aware of potential traffic noise. The dining experience, offering a good standard of food, was tasty enough. Overall, the facilities were fine too.

The hotel is located in Bridge of Alford, about 1.5 miles from the city of Alford, offering a stunning view of the river in the countryside. The rooms are nicely furnished and decorated with a good ensuite, but some improvements are needed, such as addressing the peeling wallpaper. The service provided by the staff, typical of a hunting, shooting, fishing hotel, is accommodating and memorable for hospitality and food quality.

My 3-night stay at the Forbes Arms Hotel in Aberdeen was a mix of experiences. The rooms were a bit tired, hoping for a better dining experience. The service was welcoming and engaging, reflecting the hotel's hunting, shooting, fishing charm. The stunning location by the river had its drawbacks with traffic noise but overall, it was a great getaway.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. Although the rooms had some issues like peeling wallpaper and malfunctioning lights, the friendly service and good breakfast made up for it. The location was convenient for my work in the Aberdeenshire area, but the traffic noise was a drawback. The dining experience, although of good quality, seemed lacking in staff presence. Overall, it was an average stay with room for improvements.
