Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Aberdeen
For the majority of travelers, Aberdeen International Airport (ABZ) is the only primary choice, situated directly in Aberdeen and offering the most efficient access to the city centre. All other airports are located in NEIGHBORING cities and serve different regional purposes. Edinburgh Airport (EDI) acts as a major international gateway for Scotland; while it requires a significant journey of over 2 hours via train or coach to reach Aberdeen, it provides the widest range of global connections. Inverness Airport (INV) serves the Highlands and offers a direct rail link to Aberdeen, making it a viable alternative for those exploring Northern Scotland. Dundee Airport (DND) is a smaller facility in a nearby city primarily handling limited domestic routes. Finally, Hatton Seaplane Base (NUF) is a private facility and not a commercial hub for passenger air travel to Aberdeen. When choosing, prioritize ABZ for convenience, whereas EDI is better for long-haul international arrival requirements.

Although it has a history of more than 100 years, the renovation inside is still good. The room is super large and not far from the city center. The only drawback is that there is no parking lot. The soundproofing is a bit weak, you can hear people talking in the corridor clearly.FromUS$58

My trie room is a double bed + single, with ample of space for a tube arm chair and a comfy office chair with rollers. You got all one needs for daily. All function well.
Best location to bus station and train.
Big shopping mall, variety of chain eateries. M&S food is by the end of the mall.
Service is efficient and sincere. Clean and best spring supported mattress & pillows among the hotels I used so far in the UK with the same grade.
I wish they could change my dirty mugs when the 2 days I ask to clean up the room during my 6 nights of stay.FromUS$82

Recently stayed overnight for a wedding we were attending at the hotel. Staff were very attentive and welcoming. We received a free upgrade and the rooms were spotless.
Breakfast the following morning was more than adequate with the option of a full scottish along with an array of food for a continental breakfast.
I would have no hesitation staying at Norwood Hall againFromUS$83

The small sink is so cute! !! If you catch a flight the next day, it is a good choice for classmates and parents. A 10-minute walk from the hotel to the airport is very convenient, and you can get up late in the morning.
[Location] The hotel is next to Aberdeen Airport, 10 minutes away. If you enter the city, take a taxi: 01224 494949, which is about 15-20 pounds. The bus is also very convenient. It takes 727 to walk for 3 minutes, and the one-way fare is 3.5 pounds.
[Health] Very clean hotel
[Value for money] High value for money, newer equipment, the cheapest Courtyard hotel in the UK is 600 yuan a night (may be slightly more expensive in November, winter and summer)
[wifi] Wi-Fi is free
[Room size] The room size is normal, not big, but not small. Two people will not feel crowded when staying. Better than too many European Hiltons.
[Parking] You can park downstairs
[Service] The ladies at the front desk are so warm and tender that they can melt into their sweet smiles. When you stay in Scotland for a long time, you will have a glass heart. Because the Scottish people are too enthusiastic, London will not, and the front desk will not answer (not for the Chinese but for everyone).FromUS$69

Good location, the hotel is quite new, close to the city center, the hotel is large overall, square, very strong shape, like the previous castle converted, a little mysterious force feeling... Aberdeen is a very old city, not surprising... The room is not too big, but it is enough, good health, Breakfast is OK and the service is good. Overall is satisfactory, the hotel is good, but if you go to Aberdeen in the future, you may choose other hotels in other cities in the city center...FromUS$86

The staff were so lovely. I took my dog who they loved and I got a lovely room, so nice and quiet. The shower was great, the bed was so comfortable. Free coffees in the morning which was bliss! It was so nice downstairs to just sit and chill, really nice vibes and just felt totally relaxed and at home. Probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in, absolutely loved staying here. Will definitely be staying again!FromUS$71

Superior location. The hotel has good facilities. In front of the gate is the river. It's safe, too. I do a lot of running in the morning. Next to it is a new shopping mall. Later, I found that there are many noodles to eat. You can also see the scenery outside. Very good.FromUS$98
