Wedding venue

We used Pittodrie House as our wedding venue and had an excellent time there. The day ran very smoothly and the staff were all very helpful and accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay and the food was great too We look forward to returning in the future.

Wonderful Experience

My husband and I had our wedding reception here Sept 2023 and loved the experience! The grounds around Pittodrie House are beautiful, it would be difficult to find a more scenic location for a wedding anywhere else, not too far from nearest town but feels as though you are away from everything. The Hotel oozes character inside and out- a warm, homely feeling from the moment you enter right through to the ballroom and accomodation. The planning for the wedding itself was very smooth and staff

Wonderful Hidden Gem

Revisited where we got married in 2000. Still a lovely, hidden gem. Wonderfully comfy room with great bathroom. Dinner was incredible… top class from starter to desert with a great wine list. Thoroughly recommend this small gem of a hotel hidden next to Benachie.

A magical place for a wedding or visit

We had a magical experience getting married at Pittodire in July 2023. Andrew and the team at Pittodrie went above and beyond to make our day so special. They took the time to help us plan our day to the smallest details. The venue is absolutely stunning and the rooms were beautiful and clean. The food was incredible - especially the vegetarian menu

We had a great experience on our wedding weekend. All staff really helpful and friendly. Made us feel at home, nothing was too much of a bother. We were looked after throughout the whole day to make sure our wedding went smoothly and very special. Every one enjoyed their stay and throughout the whole day all guests were well looked after. A great venue and charming hotel. A special mention to Andrew and Jill throughout the whole weekend and also for answering our many questions in the lead up

Fabulous Hotel

The most relaxing break I have had in a long time, with beautiful surroundings. The staff were excellent and couldn't be more attentive. Our room was perfect, very comfortable. The food was delicious and well presented. A great selection of wine too. The grounds are beautiful. I would highly recommend this hotel for the perfect relaxing break.

3 Night Stay May 2023

We spent 3 nights at Pittodrie House hotel with our friends their dog and ours. We can't fault the friendliest of the staff, the fantastic food (two of our party were vegan and they had great choices from the chef). Our dogs were welcomed so much and we were made to feel relaxed at the hotel. The grounds are amazing and what makes it even better is the walk to Bennachie. We would definitely recommend a stay there. A big thank you to all the staff at Pittodrie from Jon, Mike, Alex , Kathy and Mar

Completely Exceeds All Expectations

It has taken me far too long to do this review, I could never capture just how fantastic Macdonald Pittodrie House was. I still don't think these words do it the justice it deserves but hopefully provides a glimpse of how incredible it is! We had our wedding at Pittodrie House in July 2022 (originally planned for July 2020!). The staff went above and beyond, far exceeding anything I ever expected.

Well Worth it - would come again

Just stayed overnight with a mate on route further north. Real snowy scene. Building is quirky . Staff were so welcoming and warm. Had a junior suite which was cosy warm and bed was comfy, room and bathroom were large and clean. Dinner was amazing and breakfast good as well. Would come back again - staff made it though especially the night manager ( who was also their the next morning and can’t remember her name ) !
