About Marcliffe Hotel & Spa
Marcliffe Hotel & Spa sits in mature private grounds at Pitfodels, on the western fringe of Aberdeen close to the Bridge of Dee, and has the feel of a country house rather than a city hotel despite being only a short drive from the centre. Long private drives, established woodland and formal gardens set the tone before guests even reach the entrance.
Bedrooms are traditionally furnished and spacious, many overlooking the gardens, and the hotel's restaurant has built a loyal following for its Scottish menu built around local beef, game and seafood. A well-stocked cellar and a genuinely quiet, unhurried atmosphere have made Marcliffe a favourite for special occasions, weddings and business visitors wanting to escape the city centre without leaving Aberdeen altogether.
The setting suits anyone with a car, being a few minutes' drive from the Bridge of Dee and the routes out towards Royal Deeside, while still close enough to the centre for an evening in the city. Its grounds and relative seclusion make it a popular choice for those wanting a country retreat feel within the city boundary.
