"We were heading to Aberdeen for a show last Friday and our friend suggested that we try Ardennan House Hotel for a meal as it was delicious. I have travelled the A96 for the last 30 years and at no point would I have ever though to stop for a meal as it has either looked closed or a bit run down my mistake. Now I am not sure if it has always be as good as it was on Friday but trust me when I say it you must visit Ardennan House Hotel as it was delicious. The food, decor and the staff were all excellent. A great selection of meals on the menu and all 4 meals we had on Friday were delicious. It is a lovely dining room with an excellent atmosphere. The service has to be some of the best we have experienced in recent years this includes holidays to USA, Turkey, Eygpt, Spain, Ireland and of course other parts of the UK. Please keep up the excellent work you guys are doing. We will be back to try a selection of small plates . Kind Regards Rikki I cannot leave a review for the rooms as we did not stay. Service: 5"
