4. Parking

If you follow the signs for the Hilton Hotel parking you will be directed to an underground car park. On entering the car park you will see an area reserved for Hilton guests.

There is a clearly signed exit from the car park to the Hilton Hotel.

When exiting the car park there is a sign that says you need to pay for parking but there was no charge when we stayed.

The hotel website says parking is charged at £10.

PT Note;

If you follow the signs for the Aloft Hotel parking and drive past the Aloft Hotel, which will be on your right hand side, you will come to a parking area right outside the front of the Hilton Hotel.

5. Getting from the Car Park to the Hilton Aberdeen Teca

Take the exit from the car park, and you will find two flights of stairs that leads up to the courtyard area where you will find the Hilton Hotel. There is also a lift, which says it is available for those with accessibility issues.

On arriving at the top of the stairs or at ground level you will find a set of double doors.

When you exit the doors the Aloft Hotel is directly in front of you and the Hilton Hotel is to the right. You will see the entrance on the front side of the building with a canopy over the entrance.

14. Things I Liked

  • The room was a good size.
  • Having two double beds was great plus having 4 pillows on each bed.
  • The floor to ceiling windows meant the room was nice and light.
  • The on demand TV service was good – you just needed an account to sign in.
  • It was nice to have tea and coffee facilities in the room as some hotels had taken these out due to Covid.
  • The room was very clean and there was a seal on the door to show no one had entered since it had been cleaned.
  • Having checkout at midday was great – that’s the normal check out time and later checkouts are available although these may involve a fee.
  • The location is great for attending an event at the P&J Live stadium – it’s just around the corner from the building so very handy.

15. What I Liked Less

  • The air conditioning unit made a weird crackling noise. It was quite quiet when the unit was on low but this meant it was difficult to keep the room cool enough during the night.
  • One of the lights in the wardrobe stayed on all night – it was a bright LED
  • The curtains let in a lot of light around the top of the curtains and the edges and bottom. This made it very light in the early morning due to the sunrise times.
  • We had been looking forward to using the pool and I had wanted to check out the gym and the lounge area too. However, we received an email on the morning of our departure to say that these were all closed. This was disappointing so we adjusted our departure time not to arrive so early at the hotel. On arriving at the hotel we were advised that all these facilities were open. When I showed the reception team the email they said it had been sent out by the reservations team in error.
  • There was no information in the rooms about breakfast. We did not know the times or the cost of breakfast so we didn’t have any at the hotel.
  • Free WIFI in the rooms is only available to Hilton Honors members. I am a Hilton Honors member but the WIFI is only available if you book through Hilton Honors. Thank goodness for 4G!

16. Cost

We paid £74 for a one night stay. We thought this was reasonable when we booked (we booked two to three weeks in advance.)
