The welcome included lovely homemade cake and warm smiles

from Beth and Steven, who truly care about the guest experience. We found the room spacious, and the bathroom was especially functional. The breakfast selection was wholesome, and the attention to detail was evident throughout the guesthouse.

Very comfy room with stunning mountain views, generous towel supply. The thoughtful touches throughout made all the difference.

Thoughtful touches make the difference

From the moment I stepped in, I was welcomed with homemade cake and warm smiles. The room was spacious, offering breathtaking views and a cozy ambiance. Breakfast was a treat, crafted with care and served promptly.

Climbing the stairs to the second floor was a slight effort, given that there's no lift, but it was a small price to pay for such a lovely stay.

My recent stay at Gordon Guest House was outstanding. The hosts, Beth and Steve, provided a warm welcome and were always available with great local tips. The room was spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything necessary, including USB ports and a lovely tea tray. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Ballater, with parking just outside. Breakfast was also exceptional, offering a vast selection that rivaled any high-end hotel.

No lift access to the upper floors may be a consideration for some guests.

The building's historic charm is wonderfully maintained, offering a unique atmosphere. Spacious rooms showcase impressive amenities like whirlpool baths and USB ports, creating a cozy retreat.

The attic bathroom presents challenges for taller guests due to low ceilings, which could be inconvenient. Additionally, accessing accommodations involves navigating two flights of stairs, which might not be ideal for everyone.

Delightful stay with attentive hosts who obviously pride themselves on providing a memorable experience. The freshly prepared breakfast was a standout, featuring locally sourced ingredients and served with perfect coffee. The spacious room offered stunning views and comfort, but a bit more attention to minor details could enhance the overall experience. The surroundings were peaceful, making it a great retreat after exploring the charming village. Unfortunately, some common amenities were slightly lacking, which detracted from the otherwise perfect experience.

Would recommend for a trip

Comfortable room, tasty breakfast, well-situated location, with a large bed and a stunning view over the Craigendarroch hill that enhanced our overall experience and made our morning delightful.

It was all superb.

From the warm welcome with delicious homemade cake to the spacious room that was perfect for unwinding, everything felt just right. We also enjoyed relaxing in the cozy lounge area and taking advantage of the lovely garden space. The stairs were a bit of a climb, but it wasn't a big deal at all, so just prepare for it! 😊

Just a good pick for a momentary visit in Ballater with incredible value for money. The breakfast selection was vast, and everything tasted fantastic. Make sure to enjoy the lovely garden space during your stay.
