Brentwood Aberdeen City Centre near Union Street
I booked a room in this hotel and on arriving I asked if I could get a room on the ground floor if one was free (accessibility reasons). I was then sent to the hotel next door which isn't as nice as this one in my view, I've stayed before - with as many stairs.

Staff courteous, room spotless. Breakfast adequate - could have been better but for cost of one night including breakfast suited us.
