Set in Ballater and with Balmoral Castle reachable within 18 km, The Green Inn Rooms offers a garden, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. CairnGorm National Park is 47 km from the inn and Aboyne Golf Club is 19 km away.

Great property in an amazing location. The welcome glass of wine was a nice touch but the main reason I would stay again, is the service levels. The owners really went above an beyond to make sure we were happy. Will definitely recommend to a friend!

    Outstanding, beautiful and unique property. Amazing attention to detail with decorations, service, comfort and breakfast. One of our best stays in Scotland! And go have dinner at The Fish Shop! Probably our best meal in Scotland!

    This place had a very homely feel to it; I would stay here again. It really is out yonder but there is plenty of car parking out front. Everyone staying there was friendly and the staff although they appeared quite busy were also friendly. The dinner was good value for money and nice. There was a nice fire to sit around after dinner and the rooms were comfortable and cosy. Limited options for breakfast as it's a small hotel, but enough to get you going for the morning.

    This was the best accomodation we've ever had. There were so many wow moments that it is difficult to describe it all. It is a small pension owned by a very nice couple, that made us feel better than at home. Room was very nice, clean, with big bathroom. There was a home made cake prepared for us when we arrived. Breakfast are freshly made by owners, everything is delicious, and there is a big selection of home made cakes, that are simply gorgeous. Surroundings are very nice as well. We felt so good we didnt want to leave.
