Fraser suites is a gorgeous hotel that is located on the royal mile. The window in the room was quite small but the view was great! The bathroom was gorgeous however the fixtures were a little confusing to operate.
Overall great experience

This hotel was a great find when we traveled in October 2011. Rooms were modern and comfortable but didn't seem to have any air conditioning. Fine for the fall weather when we stayed. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to see. If you want to stay in the old town at a nice looking hotel this will be hard to beat.

My partner and I go to Edinburgh often and after trying several 4-star hotels found this one and we love it. The location is superb, the rooms are modern and well-furnished, the spa is nice (even if the pool is chilly and the area around it very small). Highly recommended.

Lost Property

Sadder but Wiser
- Aug 31, 2011
we left two spoons in the bathroom of the hotel on Day 2 of a 4-day stay. we had not had room service and these spoons looked nothing like the hotels -- we brought them from home. they were missing when we returned to our room. I reported it immediately to the front desk and said I presumed the maid picked them up by mistake and that they were in the kitchen. the next morning (Day 3), I discussed with the head of the cleaning staff on the floor. the maid was off that day and no one could fine these. i even showed her a picture of these spoons as thet are a Towle stainless pattern. The next day (day 4), when we were checking out, I finally talked to the head of housekeeping who had no ideas anything was missing as he had been out. Then he tells me I have to file a police report to get the two spoons reported -- come on!!! are they serious???? as we were checking out?? and I made it clear I wasn't accusing the maid -- just thought she made a mistake. we're out $70 for the replacement cost of the spoons. What a bunch of incompetents!!!!

Spotless bedrooms. Exceptionally

Anonymous
- Aug 28, 2011
Spotless bedrooms. Exceptionally comfy beds, luxurious duvets and pillows. Good location for the festival. We were upgraded to a double double superior.
Excellent cheap cocktails in the bar. Free Wi Fi and well positioned plug sockets in bar/lobby area so good for working.
Breakfast OK, if you let reception know the night before you will get a discount - not advertised. Otherwise plenty of cafes nearby.
Corridors and communal areas need a hoover and the tiles need a good scrub. Service in the bar was slow.
Bathroom very small for 2 people, considering huge room. Shower over bath so not to easy to get out, bath sloped and the partition door did not fully open. No fan in bathroom - or maybe it wasn't working.
Ear plugs provided, as was a fan ,as the room overlooked the castle and the street noise was loud. With window shut it was quiet so no need of the ear plugs!
Too busy to check out the TV - but huge TV screen provided.
Slow lifts.

Great hotel, even better service
-
Anne P.
- Nov 1, 2011
We stayed at Hotel Missoni for three nights, and we were honestly blown away. I'm not a fan of the Missoni color/pattern palette, but the hotel is beautifully done, even tasteful (!) and the layout is comfortable but chic. Our room was perfectly sized, with a nice big bathroom and modern fixtures, and the restaurant and bar (we visited both) were also lovely. But the kicker is the *thought* for guests: the staff is lovely, warm and helpful, and there are little touches that make you feel welcome left and right (the minibar is complimentary, they do 2 pieces of laundry/night, again complimentary, they supply significantly more than the minimum toiletries, etc). The location is great too – right off the Royal Mile but on a less-than-touristy side street.
In all, we loved staying here. Sure, it's a bit spendy, but if you're looking for a romantic getaway and planning to spend a bit more money, go here and skip the 'old glamour' (which can be a bit stale) of the more established institutions.

エジンバラの旧市街の中心部。エジンバラ城まで歩いて５分ほど，18世紀の哲学者ヒュームの銅像の辻向かい，スコットランド銀行と同じ建物にあります。建物は，とても新しく清潔。泊まった部屋からは，お城が見えました。メインダイニングのイタリア料理はとてもおいしく，スコットランドで一番イタリア料理がおいしい店として賞をもらった（とフロントの人が言っていました）だけのことはあります（ただし，値段もそれなりにします）。ホテルの前には，キルト服を着たフレンドリーなホテルのスタッフが立っていて，タクシーをすぐ泊めてくれます。ビジネスで行ったのですが，現地で会った仕事の関係者も，エジンバラでいちばんいいホテルだと思うよ，とのことでした。少し高いですが，それに見合うホテルだったと大満足です。

Old Town hotel keeps the party goingOriginally built in 1621 for the Guild of Tailors, Tailors Hall Hotel was established in 1998 following a full restoration of the property. But history is not really the focal point here -- instead, it is the lively, fun-loving atmosphere, central location and affordable rates that keep fans of the Tailors Hall Hotel coming back. The distinctive stone building contains 42 guest rooms, from singles to quads. Some Tailors Hall Hotel guest rooms overlook the spacious courtyard that serves as home to The Three Sisters pub, an Edinburgh hot spot.

A central location near the Royal Mile means all of the best sights of Edinburgh are nearby. Choose from single, twin, double, triple and quadruple rooms. Each features free high-speed Internet access, an LCD flat-panel television, in-room movies (fees apply), air conditioning, tea- and coffee-making facilities, an in-room safe and en-suite facilities with complimentary bath amenities and a hair-dryer. Some guest rooms overlook the courtyard and The Three Sisters. EntertainmentFor Scottish hospitality, historic character, live music and a great pint, look no further than The Three Sisters, right outside the door of the Tailors Hall Hotel. The fun-loving atmosphere hits a new level when the cobblestone courtyard fills with revelers on festivals and special occasions.

This hotel from the pictures looks good, but in real life it is some what tired and dated.
Location is good, but that is the only positive.
Rooms are scruffy and general standards in the hotel are not great. No internet available at all.
Bar area used for breakfast smelt very poor.
I would not use that hotel again. A colleague who stayed at the same hotel different room on the same night thought the same.

When it comes to fine-dining, the choice of restaurants at The Balmoral matches the mood of the moment. With attentive but non-intrusive service, guests can choose from the hotel's Michelin-starred number one fine dining restaurant with outstanding cuisine provided by Chef Jeff Bland; Hadrian's for chic and informal dining; Palm Court for traditional afternoon tea or its very own Bollinger Bar. The newly refurbished and stylish Balm-oral Bar is perfect for a relaxing cocktail or traditional whiskey.

Generally quite nice, but the seating in the room was so uncomfortable as to be unusable. It may have been the chain's top designer who picked the chairs, but the designer could never have sat in them and tried to read. Otherwise, quite nice, with a great (though expensive) restaurant in the hotel.

The Balmoral Hotel is an amazing historic building placed right in the middle of the new town and old town. It is an excellent location to see all the major sights of Edinburgh. The hotel staff were exceptionally helpful for all of our needs. I would love to return and stay again. Highly recommendable!

Good Location and Breakfast; minimal furnishings

Tourist Senior
- Oct 25, 2011
The room and the hotel is very basic (tiny lobby, and in the room no closets or drawers; no luggage stands; no shampoo or lotion; tiny end tables, no wakeup calls, etc.). But what is there is functional, clean, and comfortable. The location is extremely convenient, being 5 minutes walk to the intersection of Royal Mile and South Bridge St., and so close to Edinburgh University, restaurants, sightseeing, tourist attractions, shopping, transportation, and bars. A taxi trip to Waverly (train) station was 4 pounds, and to airport was 22 pounds. Reasonable breakfast -- all cold items except scrambled eggs and sausages. Staff is helpful. I will happily select it again.

The staff were friendly, breakfast which was included was good, although a little variety in the menu would have been nice. This hotel is conveniently located about a block off the Royal Mile. Very convenient for sightseeing. Hotel opened in 2007 so it is still fairly new. Air conditioning was nice! Taxi service superb for this location. No waiting.

Something different in the heart of Edinburgh The Bank Hotel, refurbished in 2008, offers something different to visitors of Edinburgh. The building was originally constructed in 1923 as a grand bank. An extensive renovation in 1998 turned the building into a boutique hotel and restored many original features. Guests can watch the hustle and bustle of the Royal Mile from the comfort of the Bank Bar. Princes Street and city-center amenities are within easy reach. HighlightsUnique historic city center buildingRefurbished in 2008All rooms are non-smokingFree Wi-Fi Rooms Each of the hotel's nine rooms, atop the original 1923 staircase, is named after a famous Scot. The individually designed double, twin, and superior rooms are modern but retain period features, such as wood paneling and freestanding bathtubs. Rooms are spread over three floors, tastefully decorated, and well furnished. Accommodations are equipped with private bathroom, television, safe, hairdryer, direct-dial phone, trouser press, tea- and coffee-making equipment, CD player, and bathrobes. Room service is available during limited hours. The hotel can arrange for dry cleaning. Internet access is available in rooms and public areas. Reception is open 24 hours. Features The Bank Hotel building, located at the junction of South Bridge and the Royal Mile, is a sight worth seeing itself. Doric columns convey an air of respectability that reflects Edinburgh's long history of prudent financial management. The Bank Bar extends over two stories and provides an excellent view of the Old Town, as well as breakfast (fees apply) and a wide choice of drinks and bar food. The hotel offers much more, right on the doorstep. The historic Royal Mile is the heart of Edinburgh's Old Town, a lively area with bars, restaurants, cafés, and attractions. The hotel is within easy reach of Princes Street, Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, and primary Festival locations.

I LOVED this hotel. The staff were all young, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The location was literally in the dead center of the historic district with great views. The room was beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable with a great tv and dvd player.
I can't recommend this fun place enough-you should stay here. The only reasons it might not be perfect for everyone is there is no mini fridge or hair dryer and all rooms are up at least two long flights of stairs with no elevator.

How do you like living in a dorm?

BostonDude
- Jul 23, 2011
The hotel itself is in a reasonable location, quite near downtown less than 10 minutes to High St, and 10-15 minutes to the palace at Holyrod and the approach to arthurs seat. It is clean and affordable, and the rate includes breakfast which has a good mix of vegetarian options.
However, don't think these are hotel rooms. These are converted dorm rooms, and have very minimal shower facilities, and at least in our room, the bed did not face the tv. Probably single occupancy rooms don't have this problem. The location was good for us 10-15 minute walk from train station, maybe a little further to the castle. But, the room was utterly lacking in character, and using the shower made the whole bathroom sopping wet and gross.

We planned on spending all our time out, so we needed a bed, a bathroom, and a minimal kitchen to cook in. Richmond Place is in a great location for hiking to the Royal Mile or Princess Street for shopping, catching a bus to other locations, or getting to Waverly Station for a train. It's in a student dorm for post grads at Edinburgh University, and actually very quiet. If you want nice accommodations with a truly self-catered experience, this is the place! Would stay there again, but take a washcloth the next time!

Hotel was acceptable but they "swiped" my credit card in case of incidentals but did not inform me that they would automatically charge 3o pounds and this resulted in a message from my card company and I had to call Scotland from London for explanation.

We stayed here for 2 nights over the Hogmanay period, the hotel was perfect 10 mins walk from the train station, less than 10 mins to the Royal mile. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was excellent value at £8 pp if you booked it the night before, it was very clean and tidy, and it was a quiet location just off the main road. We will be going back to this hotel in the summer.

We really enjoyed staying in this hotel which we found attractive with good size well furnished room.
Very comfortable beds and bathroom a good size without the awful noise of an extractor fan which we
often experience in other hotels.
The staff were very helpful and met our request for
a change of double room to twin without hesitation.
Breakfasts were excellent with great variety and well presented.
Location was perfect for walking to most of the
places of interest and good bus service for further
afield visits. Situated in a fairly quiet street, just off Nicholson street, which is very busy, made for peaceful sleep.
We found the Castle interesting and loved the views
from there. The Royal yacht Britannia was a treat
and the City Museum in Chamber Street wonderful.
Would certainly stay at this hotel again when we
return to Edinburgh to explore further.

A perfect hotel for a stay in Edinburgh.
Nice and friendly personal and a nice clean room (no 401) for a cheap price. The room was close to the elevator, but we nerver heard any noice from it.
Even the location is very good (close to the royal mile and Edinburgh castle).
Would gladly recommend it to anyone is going to visit Edinburgh!

Had to spend the first night at another hotel d/t overbooking- all arrangements were made by Princes Street Suites personel. When I finally got to check into hotel the next day, they did upgrade me to a very large suite, which was more than expected. Everything was nice, except the floors were dirty and the beds weren't the most comfortable I've slept on. They are fairly new, so maybe a few wrinkles to iron out yet? You cannot beat the location for train station access, bus access, and a very short walk to either old town or new town. I would reccommend this hotel, just call or email before hand to verify that you will have a room.

This was a one week research trip to Edinburgh. The room was spacious and comfortable. While we received an exceptionally good deal-possibly the best in Edinburgh-there were definitely some rough edges. The towel service came when it wanted and not every day, some of the furniture was in bad shape and was fairly flimsy. Still, we had a large, modern room. This is clearly a budget hotel that doesn't look like other budget hotels.
