The Green Inn's central Ballater location is a definite highlight for many, with easy access to the town and complimentary parking nearby. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some featuring a large bathroom with both a bathtub and shower. While some found the attic room's bathroom to be small and the bed uncomfortable, the convenience of having a kettle and complimentary items allows for easy breakfasting before exploring the area.

great location fantastic pizza
the location was great. the pizza from the downstairs restaurant tasted fantastic.
The room lacked a towel rail. Even an unheated one would have been helpful in the bathroom.

some issues detracted from the stay

cold room uncomfortable temperature
the location was ideal and easy to access, i did like it.
the room was pretty cold when i arrived. it barely reached a comfortable level even after turning on the thermostat. the need to be economic is understood, but it was freezing at first, i wish i knew that.

Adequate Stay in Central Location

spacious room comfortable bed cold room comfortable temperature
The room was spacious. I liked the comfortable bed! A kettle and complimentary items were available, convenient..
The room got very cold after I arrived. It barely reached a comfortable temperature. That was not good. I think, in the middle of January, it should have been warm on arrival!
