Ferryhill House Hotel, Bon-Accord Street, Aberdeen

Ferryhill House Hotel, located on Bon-Accord Street in Aberdeen, is a late 18th-century, two-storey building with an attic and basement, originally designed as a classical house and now functioning as a hotel. The exterior is harled and white-washed, featuring finely finished granite margins, a granite base course, a dividing band course, and an eaves course. The building has V-jointed long and short quoins and projecting cills.

The southwest elevation is near-symmetrical, showcasing a round-arched doorway at the center of the ground floor, which is accessed by four stone steps. This doorway includes impost and keystone details, and features a two-leaf glazed and panelled timber door with a fanlight above. A window is located above this door on the first floor. Flanking the doorway are three windowed bowed bays on both the ground and first floors, with infilled openings in the basement. The elevation is adorned with dentil moulded cornicing and conical roofs, while the attic features a pair of three-light canted dormers at the center. To the outer right, there is a single-storey, single-bay wing with a window at its center.

The southeast elevation was not visible in 1999. The northeast elevation is near-symmetrical and consists of three bays. It has a single bay wing that advances to the center, featuring a window on the ground floor and a large round-arched window with basket tracery on the first floor above. There are two windows on both the ground and first floors of the right return, and a single window on both the ground and first floors of the left return. Flanking bays to the left and right each have a single window on the first floor.

The northwest elevation is asymmetrical, with the ground floor obscured by a late 20th-century conservatory. It has two irregularly placed windows on the first floor. The building predominantly features two-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is piended and covered with graded grey slate, complete with lead ridges. Coped wallhead stacks with octagonal cans and cast-iron rainwater goods are also present.

The interior was not visible in 1999. The property includes square-plan granite ashlar gatepiers on the southwest side, which are corniced and topped with spherical finials that support iron lamps. The boundary walls are made of granite rubble and feature semi-circular brick coping.
