Pros: The location was good and easy to find. Staff was friendly and allowed me to store my luggage when I arrived early. The staff took a group out for Scottish dancing and it was fun to socialize.
Cons: I’m pretty positive my sheets were not changed before my arrival, I found multiple long black hairs in my bed (I have medium blonde hair). I didn’t say anything to the staff as I was only staying one night and didn’t want to bother with it. The bathrooms were quite dirty as well. The shower floors were dirty and the ceiling where the shower curtain hangs need to be deeply cleaned. Cheap cost but you get what you pay for.

Pros: The Balmoral is the best hotel in Edinburgh. I mean this is where the Stones stay. You stay for the incredibly professional and attentive staff like Jack at the front desk and for the amazing amenities like the high tea at the palm court and the whiskey bar with over 400 choices. Not to mention the great location.

Pros: I told them I am severely asthmatic. When I walked into the room I immediately smelled musty old rug that was cleaned at least dozens of times and exhausted its useful life a long time ago. I went back to the front desk and told them needed a different room for medical reasons and willing to pay more. The front desk person and the day manager told me that they did not have availability without any serious they said no without any consideration and force me to sleep in this room where I ended up wheezing all night. They also lied to me that all the rooms were renovated at the same time and were the same. And it turns out that there were at least a few rooms available.

Not to mention the great location.
Cons: We stayed in both a regular room and an incredible suite. The corner suite was a dream come true and one felt as if they were a lord or lady. On the other hand, the regular room was quite boring with no view at all. However, even if I had to stay in the regular room the entire stay it would have been worth it just to be at the Balmoral.

7.5 Good
Pros: The hotel and general ambiance
Cons: We received a call from reception at 10.30 PM informing us that there was a complaint about noise. We were watching the Graham Norton show on the TV at what we thought was a reasonable sound level - the very facility I would have thought the TV was provided for. Of course in response we turned the volume down until we could barely hear the TV which spoiled our enjoyment of the programme and the remainder of the stay. It was disappointing that hotel staff didn't verify the complaint, but simply passed it on - not I think a sufficient level of service for the quality of hotel the Balmoral is. We take an annual trip as a treat from the stressful job of teaching - often in Edinburgh and have never been accused of this type of behaviour before and I think that we in future will revert to one of Edinburgh's other fine hotels as we want to reduce, not increase our stress.

Ten Hill Place, BW Premier Collection was opened in November 2006. The hotel is one of Edinburgh's premier City Centre hotels. From airy public places to each of our 129 smart bedrooms, the mood of Ten Hill Place, BW Premier Collection is one of quiet sophistication, and one we believe sets us apart from other Edinburgh hotels. We have four fully equipped accessible rooms with an elevator from street level to all floors. This innovative Edinburgh hotel is within easy walking distance of Princes Street, the historic Old Town and the City Centre’s main tourist, shopping and business districts; yet peacefully situated away from the main thoroughfares. The best of Edinburgh opens up before you right outside our front door. The Festival Theatre is across the road, the National Museums are around the corner and the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and Holyrood Palace are just a stone’s throw away. Whether on business or a short city break in Edinburgh, make Ten Hill Place, BW Premier Collection your first choice. Edinburgh offers tourist attractions for all ages and interests. Ten Hill Place, BW Premier Collection® is owned by the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and all profits go back into training surgeons worldwide.

Pros: The staff, location and facilities are good. Bar functional but nothing special.
Cons: Room 623 was small for the price - the Air con didn't work properly and during our first night a sensor in the air con unit triggered an alarm that woke us up. Futhermore the room is next to a storage cupboard that was accessed quite frequently from around 7am and at several times in the day and evening, each time the user slammed the door in and out! What should have been a restful holiday was ruined for us because of this. Hotel staff friendly and helpful but this did not make up for the frequent, noisey disturbances.

Pros: The bed was super soft. Location on the Royal Mile was great for shopping for woollen goods. Some of the staff went out of their way to be extremely helpful when there was a rally outside and I couldn't get a taxi.

Pros: Spacious room with a big, comfy bed and a small seating area. Very clean, good breakfast selection and friendly, efficient staff. Central location on the Royal Mile but our room was very quiet even with the window open. TV options were good once we had got the internet connection sorted.
Cons: The hospitality tray could have been better and I don’t like having to ask for a mini-bar.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Location
Cons: Shower
6.5 Good
Pros: Spacious suite living room, separate half guest bath, Decent breakfast with separate order menu, gym had free weights to 30kg, location is on royal mile down road from castle (but for Christmas markets and shopping, a princess street hotel would been better), overall friendly staff.
Cons: 1. For a royal mile suite, main bathroom was standard. Overly spacious living room really could’ve spared space for a more comfortable bathroom befitting suite.
2. Website advertised kids eat free. However, when we ordered meals for the kids via room service, we were told it’s not free. Extremely deceptive and off putting of brand.
3. I emailed the hotel 1 week in advance of 4-day stay and asked for milk, orange juice, and water in room stocked and included room mini fridge. Email from customer service acknowledged request and even confirmed we still wanted wine and beer - a nice catch! However, when we arrived, we were informed juice and milk not included. False service promise should’ve not been made.
Room service food was Not worth price (pizza, burger, and kids chicken meal were only ok but far more expensive than eaterery options all around).

Pros: Staff were very helpful, great location

Pros: I chose this hotel for the convenience, as my son & I were coming to Edinburgh to look around Edinburgh university. On arrival to Edinburgh we dropped our cases into the hotel & then went off to view the Uni . The Staff were very helpful with directions & booking a table for dinner . Our room was very tastefully decorated very clean & had comfy beds . The hotel seemed very busy , we ordered room service & couldn’t get through but when I phoned the reception again the staff said they would go & order at the restaurant for me . The food wasn’t great . Later that evening we went to the restaurant which was beautifully decorated & a wonderful ambience .They had a pianist playing throughout the evening which added to the atmosphere. If I’m honest the food wasn’t the best I’ve eaten & my son thought the same . But the service & atmosphere made up for it as did the delicious gin & tonics !

Pros: It was very well facilitated.

Pros: Some nice touches like free macarons at reception and hair straighteners in the bedroom.

Pros: Location , location
Cons: Property is in a great location direct access to railway line (by lift ) and easy close acces to centre of town, castle, Hotel is in a constant state of repairs and improvement, our room lacked heating and there were no large comfortable areas where you could just come in from the outside and relax (only 4 chairs by reception with the smallest fire /gas we have ever seen . Breakfast and dinner were only average, and we ate out most nights, great pub on the corner for food and drinks, modern pizza place, opposite hotel and just up the road other pizza shops, Always seemed to be rubbish/old furniture outside our door, good views, Would I stay there again, not sure, hotel is a bit of a old rabbit warren, but location is a big influence and convenience. Our Room was very quite at night. probably would rate at a 6 out of ten.

Pros: Location fantastic & staff very helpful.
Cons: After having this hotel recommended to us we were disappointed. We went all out & booked a suite as it was a special occasion . Unfortunately the room was very tired!! Bathroom, shower etc needs updating badly. Carpet needs a good clean & room needs repainting! I say repainting as it had obviously been carried out recently but the thermostats hadn’t been reattached to the wall. Both TV’s were untuned & unwatchable as we told the hotel. Breakfast not up to much! Sorry but we travel a lot & even much cheaper hotels offer a much better breakfast. However the staff were very helpful & very approachable.

The Grassmarket is the hub of Edinburgh’s Old Town and that’s where you’ll find the Apex City of Edinburgh Hotel, looking up to Castle Rock and Edinburgh Castle, the backdrop of the Military Tattoo. You can walk anywhere in the city centre from here and it’s exceptionally convenient for the transport links at Waverley Train Station, buses around the city and Old Town attractions. The high street shops of Princes Street and George Street are just a short walk away and you’ll be just a 10 minute walk from The King’s Theatre or The Festival Theatre.
The friendly smile that welcomes you at check-in will become a regular feature during your stay. There’s always someone on hand to help make your stay unique and memorable. From the local advice that’ll help you plan your day to a relaxing dinner or drinks served in Agua Restaurant & Bar, you’ll be well looked after from start to finish.

Pros: I liked the bathroom which was well appointed and very spacious. The bed was large with loads of pillows and the coffee maker was a welcome treat.
Cons: The room felt smallish despite the hotel stating that it was spacious and the view was mildly exaggerated although not entirely inaccurate but not worth the additional cost. The bed was a bit tough but that is a matter of preference and the bits which I expected in the room were not all present and had to be requested. Lovely hotel and still one of my favourite places to stay in Edinburgh but the ‘upgrades’ are not worth the additional costs. The best value is still the Classic room with no view but nice sofa seating area.

Apex Grassmarket is located in the heart of Old Town Edinburgh with large en suite bedrooms with complimentary Wi-Fi, 42" LCD TV's and Elemis toiletries. The hotel has a swimming pool, sauna and Technogym, a car park and a glass-fronted restaurant with stunning Edinburgh Castle views. There are seven meeting and event spaces that will suit more formal business needs or weddings and larger events in the Heights space on the fifth floor with unforgettable views of Edinburgh.
You'll love the castle views from the hotel and the fact that within a few minutes you can be on the Royal Mile, or exploring the National Museum of Scotland or even sipping a coffee at The Elephant House - the café where J K Rowling began writing some of her early Harry Potter work.

We asked immediately to change and the answer was “somebody has to stay in it”unfortunately we were there for 5 nights and the room was horrid. The sink is so low you have to be on your knees to wash your face, the counter do not accommodate toiletries, no bath mat, no make up mirror, no chair to relax in. No place in shower to place shampoo. Worst hotel for almost $300 a night we have stayed in

5.8 Okay
Pros: Location was very good. It was only a short walk to Edinburgh Castle and in the vicinity of many restaurants and cafes.
Cons: The hotel is built on a irregularly shaped block. The room to which we were allocated had only one small window overlooking rear of the premise and facing a wall of another structure. The view was unsightly and ugly. The hotel is small however, one of the two lifts was not working. This created unnecessarily long waits which are entirely avoidable. The appointment of the hotel is modern however, its minimalism does not make it feel like a 5 star hotel.

The heating came on at 6am and was very noisy. This woke my partner and I up and we couldn't get back to sleep with the noise.
The tea/coffee machine in the room did not work.
Left my straighteners behind in the room but when I contacted the hotel to enquire about this they said they checked and they were not there. That is a mystery to me.

8.8 Excellent
Pros: The hotel restaurant meals were very enjoyable with good service from the staff.
Cons: Continental breakfast was quite good, however on our last morning the breakfast area was closed because a movie was being filmed. The replacement breakfast pack delivered to the room the night before was not what had been promised in an email. The view from our room was of neighbouring building rooftops with prominent airconditioning ducts and there was a constant cooking smell from a nearby restaurant

Pros: -Wonderful staff! -Loved the tub and the towel warmer -Great location in Old Town

6.7 Good
Pros: Nice big rooms
Cons: Gym was not good. Very poor selection of free weights and no benches! Badly planned. I suggest you get a professional to plan and equip the gym. Take a look at the (much smaller) Adagio gym for an idea. I will be staying there for my future trips.

Pros: The bed was excellent, soft top on a platform. It was nice to have a bench, we used it for one of our suitcases.
Cons: The waiter in the downstairs restaurant was obviously annoyed at the seats we chose, so our late dinner was slow and unpleasant. We didn't eat there again. I really disliked having to step up into the space-pod like bathroom, but that's probably just a personal thing. The alleyway behind our room was noisy so unfortunately we had to close the window that was keeping our room cool and airing out the overuse of air freshener.

7.1 Good
Pros: Separate toilet from the bathroom.
Cons: The lady receptionist could not tell us if it was allowed to park in front of the hotel at the marked spaces." I don't know" that was his answer, "but you can park in our parking for £ 22 a night until tomorrow morning when you leave". We went out to see the street signs, Sunday was parking free of charge until Monday morning 8:30 AM! We can't accept that a receptionist does not know if parking 5 meters in front of the door of his hotel is paying or not. We stayed parked there and I went in the morning out to pay £ 2.40 pounds in the timestamp, and were ok until we left. If we had believe the receptionist we would have spent £ 22 pounds for nothing, not very customer friendly ....!! And in the room the wall next to the bureau was very dirty.

Pros: We were upgraded to a room that faced the main street. It was great to spend down-time sitting in the window and looking down on the street performers. The Old Waverly has a nice breakfast room with attentive staff. All hotel employees were kind and efficient.Rooms were cleaned first thing in the morning after we posted our "please make up the room" door hanger. I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel lift, which chugged along fairly quickly despite the amount of hotel "morning traffic." The hotel was also very convenient for access to Waverly Station, plus it's a short walk to Old Town.

9.0 Excellent
Pros: Love the extra blankets, huge plus for my husband and I
Cons: I asked staff about best way to get to the airport and he suggested Uber as it wasn’t that much more expensive than two tram tickets and much more convenient. While that was true at night and early morning, it definitely wasn’t around 8:30 - 9:30 on a Monday. Prices surged to twice as much and we waited for 30 min for them to go down before just having to book with the higher cost.
3.3 Mediocre
Pros: Location
Cons: Very rundown Small double bed and very uncomfortable Water was leaking down from the ceiling !! Called front desk and they brought towels to lay on the floor, nothing else. We cut our stay short and upon checkout they laughed about the water leaking from the ceiling!!!!! The worst experience we have ever been through
8.8 Excellent
Pros: Old Waverley Hotel will blow your mind with it's delicious breakfast and charming antique rooms that make this feel like a much more expensive hotel.
Cons: The only drawback for those with back issues (like myself) is that the beds are on the firmer side so I didn't sleep as well as I would have liked to. I do think if something was done about this the property would be second to none :)

Pros: Prime location for visit Edinburgh.
Cons: Safety. Generally OK but still a little bit concerned.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Simply perfect
Cons: Nothing to say
9.6 Excellent
Pros:
Cons: Everything is ok, if you need a place to spend the night at the city centre of Edinburgh. The problem is with the noise the room mates make at different times of the day or night or when they deliberately turn the lights on although other people try to sleep. I think people should be advised about that at the reception before checking in. There must be common quiteness and darkness zones.
7.5 Good
Pros: Cheap, clean, well located with decent bar/restaurant.
Cons: Slow service desk and some kind of very noisy generator constantly whirring above our room on level 5. Had to wear ear plugs or headphones to block it out even when not sleeping.

8.3 Excellent
Pros: Located in old town with easy access to tourists spots. You cannot complain more with this price with same location as Radisson blu. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
Cons: The toilet is always in a mess. The shower will definitely wet the floor and there is one toilet with the toilet paper roll not working. In the morning because I need to take a tour and need to wake up at 6 something. The sink is outside of the toilet. I don’t know how to wash and put on my make up in the dark! And there is a risk of out of toilet paper as well. If the toilet facilities can be improved, this hostel definitely deserved higher ratings.

Funny British ways about electricity - you have to put a hotel key in to a special reader inside the room to turn on the electricity in the room. They really don't want you to leave the lights on when you're not there, I guess.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: Breakfast is pretty, family room is perfect for 3 people
Cons:
5.0 Okay
Pros: the food was just ok but the lay out was disorganised
Cons: THE WHOLE PLACE NEED A DECENT CLEANUP i think the carpets in the passage on the seventh floor have not been cleaned in the last 6 months and it even smell bad
5.0 Okay
Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful
Cons: I booked this hotel as I was meeting a group of colleagues for a meeting and therefore we agreed to stay in the same hotel. Booked on the same day, I paid TWICE the price offered to the other group members. At just under £200 for the night, I couldn’t believe how unclean the room was, particularly the bathroom. The shower curtain was old and smelled of damp and there were mould spores on the ceiling above the shower. Overall, an unpleasant stay and an experience I will not repeat.
9.4 Excellent
Pros: Right off the Royal Mile, this hotel couldn't be in a better place. Comfortable, clean rooms with great views.
Funny British ways about electricity - you have to put a hotel key in to a special reader inside the room to turn on the electricity in the room. They really don't want you to leave the lights on when you're not there, I guess.
Perfect spot for our stay.
Cons: We stayed in two different rooms. The second room had a bathroom that needed some work. It was clean, but some towel bars were showing rust, and the tile needed to be re-caulked.
3.1 Mediocre
Pros: The reception area looks swanky but it’s a fur coat and no underwear. Good location for Old and New town
Cons: Room was a time machine from the 90’s
Shower didn’t work because of ‘pressure issues’. The same ‘pressure issues’ also meant the the hot water failed to come out of the taps unless they were fully opened for at least five minutes and then it took a good 15 minutes to fill the shallow bath. The maintenance man said this was always an issue on the third floor particularly in the morning because everyone was using the water.
Husband had to rescue something from under the sagging couch and wish he’d left it there - disgustingly filthy and left us feeling queasy that we’d been in the same room as that level of filth. Probably not been moved since the 90’s...
Relative to other hotels it’s a cheaper option but not cheap enough - I’d have paid a bit more for a consistent hot water supply and a room that had been deep cleaned in the last decade.
5.0 Okay
Pros: Location
Cons: Room was very small for three adults. Breakfast was very average and fruit was very cheap and brick hard.
10.0 Excellent
Pros: Our beds were very comfortable, staff friendly, helpful and professional. Jurys Inn is located close to Waverley Station and a very short walk to High Street (The Royal Mile) and other attractions and restaurants. Restaurant has pretty good food and breakfast was excellent.
Cons: Can’t think of anything that I didn’t like.
6.0 Good
Pros: Good location nice staff especially bar staff and breakfast staff. Good breakfast.
Cons: The hotel room we had was in need of decoration. There was no ventilation in the toilet bathroom, even with shower curtain in bath, water went on the floor. There were stains on the red carpet and chipped paint in bathroom. On the plus side the beds were extremely comfortable. With a bit of investment in decoration and bathroom facilities the hotel would be perfect.
8.8 Excellent
Pros: The best feature is the hotel’s proximity to Waverley station and all the main parts of Edinburgh.
