A little piece of heaven in Aboyne
"Quaint little place right off the River Dee in Aboyne. They have taken care to make sure you have all the modern amenities, but also retain a pub style cafe at the front of the inn. The staff were very kind, the food was amazing, and the beer was cold. I have been here almost 2 weeks and this was ..."

3/5 - Okay

Was visiting Aboyne for a friends wedding so didnt spend much time anywhere other than the wedding venue and hotel

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

A very pleasant little town with good walking and cycling nearby, plus the world famous gliding club 2 miles away. For the same price, we recommend staying at The Boat Inn. Also do a good breakfast, which you will need if you stay at the Huntly Arms

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Was ok as a bed for the night but I wouldn’t go back nor stay for a longer duration. Really remote town too, tricky to commute too

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveller

First and last time for this hotel. I have never experienced this shoddiness in my entire life.
