John recommended the Carmelite hotel (
http://www.carmelitehotels.com/
) to me when I was running Office Poker up there in April - 2 blocks over from the Nash - I had a basic room which did fine for the 4 hours I slept in it. Got a good deal as well.
Just a wee tip for when you return to the Nash

Kev - count your blessings... when I first came up here I spent ten weeks commuting each Sunday/Friday staying in that there 'hotel' during the week
Not heard anything today ... probably too busy redecorating LOL
Do you think I should threaten to send the photos to Environmental Health or something ?
Is this going to turn into a FACT! thread?? Give them a minute to have a look at it - send a memo - get a memo back etc etc. If nothing heard by this time next week then go in all guns blazing.
looking at the pics kev posted i think whoever stayed in the room before him already went in all guns blazing

Well I have had a reply ... nicely presented and spell checked before sending obviously !!
Dear Mr Shepherd
Many thanks for your recent feedback regrdaing your stay at Aberdeen Central.
I apologise that on this occassion our standards have not been maintained and you experienced a disappointing stay at the hotel.
We have adressed your concerns with the bedroom including the maintainance issues and the missing items.
I have also picked up with the individuals concerned who failed to rectify your issues in a timely manner, this will be dealt with internally.
I want to offer you a full refund and would appreciate it if you could call to arrange this, we do not hold customer credit card numbers at site.
Kindest Regards
Should I just accept a full refund to my card, or push for a bit extra on top ?
I am minded to just accept tbh ... thoughts ?

Plus you have to emphasize the fact that you are in a new position that requires frequent stays in hotels across the UK.

Shameless bump because I remember this trip with great fondness. And also to express my sadness at the closing of the "Nash" casino
