The accommodation is based at 15 Bon Accord Square, a Grade B listed townhouse originally designed by Archibald Simpson for use as his own residence. Number 15 is clearly the largest building on the square. The hotel, which was renovated in 2009, has 15 luxury hotel suites in total, each individually designed to blend seamlessly with the features of the building. Facilities include a lobby, hotel safe and WLAN Internet access.
Bon Accord Square is a unique 'pocket park' located in the centre of Aberdeen, yet still offering the seclusion one would expect from a more rural setting. The square and its gardens are maintained by a 'Feuars Association', which ensures that the area retains its character and charm. The train and bus stations in Aberdeen are around 10 minutes' walk away, while local buses can be found within roughly a 5-minute walk. Restaurants, pubs and shops can likewise be found around 5 minutes' walk away. The hotel is some 20 minutes' walk from the seaside.
