Christmas Night Out in Aberdeen – Get the gang together and get that Christmas night out underway by making the most of Skene House’s 2019 festive offer. We’re talking 15% off (one night or more), breakfast included, a box of chocolates waiting in your room, and a bottle of Prosecco to get the party started*.
A long awaited night out, be it with colleagues or pals, is one of life’s pleasures. The time of year when photocopiers and dares should potentially be avoided! So here’s how to make it a relaxed evening to remember.
The biggest headache about a night out is getting home at the end of it. Clubbing together for an apartment is often cheaper than individual taxis, it’s also far more relaxing as you can choose to go back to your apartment whenever you wish. No more cancelled or delayed cabs, no more trying to gather your crew together at the appointed hour, no more leaving a night out just as you’re actually getting into it, or wishing you’d booked the taxi an hour earlier, no more queuing or trying to flag down a cab along with half the city’s population. Your night out is under your control.
Skene House Apartment Hotels are located in central, well lit locations, close to the city’s bars, restaurants and night clubs. Its receptions are manned 24 hours a day so you return to a safe, homely environment. With one, two or three bedroom apartments, guests have their own room with the added benefit of a kitchen and living area.
Getting ‘party ready’ at Skene House is a pleasure. Rather than commute home, get changed, only to commute back into the city and try to find parking, why not simply check in with your friends and kick back. Put your tipple in the fridge to keep it cool, then head to your room to glam up. Getting ready for a night out with a group of pals can be the highlight of the evening!
Having the space to prepare, taking time over a manicure, or just relaxing in the living room is a real joy for those with busy lives and households. With ample free, secure parking at Skene House the car isn’t an issue either.
For those essential last minute manicures, spray tans, up-dos or barber visits then here are the top recommendations nearby.
Skene House Rosemount – There are rich pickings when it comes to hair and beauty in this area but highlights include James Dun’s House on Schoolhill, Simply Bliss on Rosemount Place and Beautylicious on Rosemount Viaduct. For a barber shop try the wonderful Mr Dun on Belmont Street.
Skene House Holburn – Again, lots of big names within walking distance. Saks and Toni&Guy have salons on Union Street. Local enterprises Na Na Nail Studio and Hatstand Nelly can be booked for beauty treatments on Holburn Street. The House on Great Western Road is a luxurious spa option if you wish to indulge. And for the men Master Cut barbers on Holburn Street and the Men’s Emporium on Thistle Street will smarten up your evening.
The Day After the Night Before – Skene House guests can book breakfast in the morning, or rustle something up in your own fully furnished kitchen when you finally wake up! For those with young families at home, the merits of an uninterrupted night’s sleep, and even a potential lie in the next morning, cannot be understated!
After a great night out, then a restful overnight at Skene House, all that’s left to do is return home with some great stories or hit the shops!
Consider Skene House Holburn Hotel Suites, a boutique all-suite hotel with thirty-five 1, 2 and 3 bedroom suites, each with a separate living and dining room, and kitchen, available nightly, located where the West End meets the city centre. Or look into Skene House Rosemount Hotel Apartments, hotel-serviced apartments with sixty 1, 2, and 3 bedroom affordable luxury apartments. Most have an open plan living/kitchen/dining room, larger apartments have separate living room, dining room and kitchen, and all have a separate bedroom(s), located in the heart of the city centre. Our Christmas 2019 offer adds sparkle, bubbles and flavour to any night out.

I’ve never been to Aberdeen but it sounds like a fabulous night out! We love Scotland but tend to stick to Edinburgh. xx
I love Edinburgh too but sometimes it’s good to try something new. If you fancy heading up further north you know where we are.

Excellent restaurants, a wide range of bars (from Brewdog, to Champagne bars, whisky bars and cocktails bars) and a lively night life. Or you can have a quiet night in with pals!

Wonderful. Well hopefully I’ve given you some suggestions about where to stay and what to do. There’s lots of other posts on the Skene Journal that may be helpful for you. Do keep us posted.
Oh I rememeber the days of clubbing in another city and staying at a hotel because it would have been too expensive to travel home. I have never been out on the town in Arbedeen before.
Very lively night life, lots of lovely restaurants and bars. You should try it! Something new.
