Eight Acres Hotel

Well.. i will give an honest review here. i wouldn’t recommend to anybody. We booked through itison who currently have a deal on for a 2 night stay at this hotel. We were called at 3pm (check in time) to inform us our booking had been cancelled for the second night… the hotel were “full”. well after driving 6 hours to Elgin i can assure you this is not what we wanted to hear. This was not resolved and we had to leave after the 1st night. After checking in, this wasn’t such a bad thing. The leisure facilities were all of a sudden closed on arrival so unable to comment on them however the rooms and extremely dated. The carpets are torn, stained, and not in great condition at all. Our door had a hole right through it where it had previously been kicked in i guess. After some research on our way home we discovered the hotel was housing asylum seekers until last week therefore i think the hotel needs a serious refresh before it can open its doors to general public again and charging people for this isn’t acceptable. To add to this there was one staff member running the entirety of reception/bar etc who was absolutely hopeless in helping us out with our cancelled booking after confirming it 5 days prior. In regards to the hotel being fully booked.. we were the only car in the far park and the only people at breakfast in the morning so i would love to know more about this “beings full” considering there is an apparent 52 rooms. All in all, it was severely dated, not well looked after, and awful customer service from both the hotel itself and itison in this case. We can guarantee we won’t be back, so save your money and try somewhere else! even the locals warned us 🙈! the website was an extremely false representation of the hotel in its current state. thanks x please note our photos and videos don’t even look too bad.. you should of seen the state of the carpets.

My Partner & i visited elgin for a 2 night spa break booked through Wahanda. On reading some of the reviews about this hotel we were apprehensive to say the least, however on arrival we were very pleasantly surprised. The double room we were given was clean, modern with a spacious bathroom. The spa facilities including pool, jacuzzi & sauna were all well maintained. The food was also very good & the set menu had a nice selection, the only downside was the slow dinner service. In all, the break was great value for money & very enjoyable.

Nice room staff view helpful food was good and had a nice fresh cooked breakfast which set us up for the day Car park was good rooms clean and well laid out Not many stopping when we stayed more of an event hotel but still worth a stop over would go back

This hotel is quite frankly hideous Had someone barge into room at 2.30 am. Kitchen closed on a Saturday night 20 minutes walk into the town for food shocking service needs sorted out it’s like a bad 70s roadside motel Dirty unkempt avoid if you can booked 2 nights left after the first I recon worst hotel I have used in Scotland Avoid

The staff here are incredible. So friendly and professional. A particular thanks to Anna and Natalia who are the best I have ever come across in any hotel. Cheers, and best wishes in ye're careers which I'm sure will be incredible, Steve and Fiona O'Leary

A great one night break away with our two teenagers. We all enjoyed the gym, swim and sauna. The evening meal menu was limited but the food was excellent and very reasonably priced. We also played snooker in the games room. Would definately stay again.
