Tranquil Spa Experience

“I had the pleasure of visiting Malmaison's spa, and it was a true escape from reality. From the warm welcome to the relaxing pampering sessions, I left feeling utterly at peace. The team was attentive and ensured I felt completely at ease. The relaxation room with its massage chairs was good while I waited for my aromatherapy back massage, which was simply fabulous.” view full review

Really good Dining Delights

“Dining at the brasserie was an lovely experience! The atmosphere was classy, and the food exceeded my expectations. I opted for the steak frites, which was cooked to perfection. The desserts were equally excellent, making the meal truly nice. I would highly recommend the dining experience here, even if you're not staying at the hotel.” view full review

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Malmaison Aberdeen. While the unique interior design caught my eye and the comfort of the food was decent, the service left much to be desired.

I genuinely hope they can improve their service management for future visits. 😕
