The staff are still ignorant. No welcome just "have you got your ID?". They staff should be more welcoming and customer focused and not focused on their own needs. "have you got your ID?". Manners maketh man. Manners also make for a pleasant hotel stay. Previously I told the staff about glass in the car park and that given a dustpan and brush i would gladly clean it up. They refused to give me a dustpan and brush and told me that they would clean it up. Which never happened for the duration of my two night stay. A coach had run over a bottle and the resulting broken glass would have been hazardous to anyone foolish enough to park in the hotel car park. I did not mind cleaning up the glass since a punctured tyre would be very annoying to any car driver. The hotel needs to improve front line customer service. Manner maketh man (and woman) and do not cost a single extra penny. It is is just attitude.

The hotel room was dirty, and during the four days I stayed there, no one took care of the room at all. Because it was New Year’s period, the price was quite expensive. Some of the staff were rude. Transportation to Old Town by Uber costs around £10. It is technically walkable, but quite difficult in cold weather. An Uber ride to the airport costs approximately £20.

1. There's no communication chennal between reception and room all the time we have to go to the reception if we need anything. 2.There is no heater in the bathroom 3.The bed is making too much noise even sitting also 4.No cabinet in the room 5.The breakfast are very poor the restaurant service is very poor specially that somali lady. She wasn't smiling at any point and she always speaking on the phone and she wasn't responding and showing her face if we ask anything such a irritating behaviour literally unpleasant situation. I have ever had this kind of experience. Over all very very poor. Thank you Regards Kanaga

Nice & clean. Bed was too hard for my liking but for 2 nights it was ok. Only one roll of loo roll provided but more available at reception. Maybe having a spare roll in the room would have been better. Lovely view from the room. Uphill walk to the old town which took about 35 minutes.

Easy check in/check out but my floor was on LG and the floor boards in the room were incredibly loud and bouncy when walking on them. The bed was very uncomfortable.

Horrible service. My flight was delayed and when I came to the hotel they said they had marked me as «no show» and if I wanted to stay I had to pay for a room again. I had booked 5 nights and lost all of them. I tried to call them to notify in advance, but no one picked up. I even messaged them through Hotels.com. Stay away from this hotel if there is a chance your flight is delayed because you will lose your entire booking. I had to find another hotel at the middle of the night when I arrived, and their staff was very rude and insensitive to my situation.

4.0 / 10.0

The room was big and clean, the only think I would suggest is to educate the staff on costumer service. Not a single "Welcome" "how can I help"... not even a "sorry" when the member of staff couldnt find my reservation just a blunt "I cant find your reservation"...

This place was awful. We weren’t even comfortable putting our bags on the floor, so I put mine on an ironing board and my husband put his in the bathtub. The TV didn’t work and the curtains were falling off. During the night (which was very loud), cigarette smoke came through the air vent, which we couldn’t control. We would not have stayed a second night even though we booked/prepaid online, except that we didn’t want to waste any of our full single day in Edinburgh on relocating. We just left at 7 am and came back only when time to sleep. One plus was a gentleman who worked there who helped us figure out where to park our rental car.

Shabby hotel, centrally situated, no restaurant.

Really difficult to report problems. Nobody answered the phone. Had to go to reception where the room was changed but only after I dragged my luggage down to reception again. Property looks neglected

Generally ok for price and location but family room has one socket and one small heater Not enough for a family

2.0 / 10.0

Room was stinking of mould. Soon as you opened the door to go into the room the smell hit you. Bed has got to be one of the worst I’ve ever laid on, every hour waking up to turn trying to find a suitable position. Creaked like mad so if you’re in bed with your partner you either wake them up or they wake you up. Best to try and synchronise your hours so your turning at the same time. Marks all over the walls and in places I can only imaging was squashed insects. Mould on the windows, clearly havnt been cleaned for a very very long time. The stairs upto the room were in a sorry state also, paint peeling off the walls and scattered all over the stairs. There was an industrial moister catching machine in the stairwell too which seemed to be going at full speed. We were booked for 3 nights but left after 2 and just headed home. Couldn’t stand another night in the room and especially on that bed. Not usually like me, I could sleep in a Photo Booth outside Tesco on a night out in the month of January with only the fluorescent light to keep me warm and that would be (and was) more comfortable. Can’t believe they have the cheek to pay for parking too. Safe to say I’ll not be back there.

this was the scariest experience ever. MANY suspect and scary people managing the hotel and hanging around outside the front drinking etc. Carpets torn up in the hallways. rooms had a terrible odor.

4.0 / 10.0

Was comfortable and clean enough. Fairly well situated for access onto Princess Street. Enough parking spaces. Could do with a few more comfortable chairs for anyone using the bar. It suited my needs for a one night visit.

2.0 / 10.0

Hotel needs renovating. The lifts had broken buttons with tape. We stepped out onto the top floor to be met with an area of no carpet. Carpet runner still down around the edges. No sign warning or apologising for inconvenience. Bed hard and uncomfortable. Toilet was not cleaned after the last guest. We chose to not eat there, afraid of the cleanliness of the kitchen. We seriously considered moving for our 2nd night in the city. No room service. Only positive, the river walk beside the hotel was lovely.

2.0 / 10.0

There were no towels in our bedroom when we arrived and even after making staff aware of this I had to ask again and then collect them myself. In the bathroom there were no hooks anywhere and no towel rails at all- so where are you supposed to hang your towels let alone any of your clothes?

3.0 / 10.0

There should be housing keeping because when you have kids it’s not good for hygiene . Especially the garbage to collect from the room and breakfast was late at 7:30 where I feel it should start by 6:30 am because I travel and also I requested for coffee but only 2 sachets I get when I mentioned in the previous morning before leaving for my tour . But a disappointment on the amenities . Not for the stay .

2.0 / 10.0

Very tired hotel which seems reasonably clean. Decorated to the minimum. Although great central position in Edinburgh the price is similar to hotels like Malmaison and other which guarantee updated decor and pleasant facility. This is a bus tour hotel with little comfort and mediocre food. I booked a 3 bed family room to fit my trip but on arrival the staff unapologetically assigned a 2 bed bedroom and couldn’t care less with no other options offered. Second stay here and last. Only get 1 pillow per person. Blatantly overpriced for level of hotel. Don’t recommend if you want to have a happy stay.

The staff on reception in the day from 9 were really great , the two young lads that we’re working on reception couldn’t be more helpful. It’s a nice hotel but definitely needs updating like some of the others have already been in the Britannia chain. I had breakfast on the first morning but was disappointed so did not on the second, the room was basic, comfortable but didn’t have a plug for the bath so had to use the soap and the room looked tired and in need of a paint job. The two reception staff saved this review really as they were lovely and friendly

Room was spacious and clean and comfortable. Easy to find and park and parking was reasonably priced. Staff friendly and helpful.

6.0 / 10.0

The room was clean however there was damage to the wall behind the beds, the staff were welcoming even though the member of staff on reception when i checked tried to get me to pay for my room twice when i had checked in online and authorised payment. One positive was that i could walk to most places, i choose not to have breakfast at the hotel it was expensive at £24 and i found cheaper options elsewhere.

2.0 / 10.0

This is the worst hotel room I have ever seen. The room was not clean, the heater was not working, and there was a terrible smell throughout the hotel. In addition, there are no convenient charging outlets — you can only charge your phone near the table, as there are no switches near the bed. Overall, I’m very disappointed with my stay and the poor maintenance of the facilities.

1.0 / 10.0

Staff were really poor. First person gave me a key to someone else’s room, fortunately they weren’t in when I opened the door. Second staff member wouldn’t change my address on invoice.
