The hotel itself was lovely & in a great location. However on the 2nd night of our stay there was a leak right outside our door. Part of the ceiling fell through with a lot of water damage. I spoke to the hotel but they had no one to come out to fix it that evening nor could they move us because the hotel was fully booked. We had a very restless night with my daughter scared and the constant dripping right outside our door. Hotels.com reached out to the hotel on our return but they refused to compensate for the 2nd night. It’s a shame because otherwise we had a nice stay. I understand that things like this can happen but I think the hotel could have offered a partial refund as a gesture for a terrible disturbed nights sleep.

This hotel is a solid 4-star hotel. Nothing that was exceptional to give it a 5-star but nothing bad to be lower than 4-stars. They have a pantry for breakfast that is nice to take water, juice, coffee and some muffins and fruit. Decently spacious for two travelers with two large suitcases, bed was fine and shower was clean.

Amazing! But cozy.

The hotel staff were amazing and gave great recommendations for where to have dinner. The room itself was extremely clean and updated and modern. The only thing I wish that I could change was that either the room was a little bit bigger and or that the shower was a tad bit bigger.

Great stay in Edinburgh!

I spent two nights at the Grove Hotel and it was a very comfortable stay. It's a 20min walk to the heart of all the Edinburgh highlights and there is lots of pubs, restaurants and shops nearby. The hotel is comfortable and stylish. I stayed in a comfort double which was very small but perfect for a solo traveller. I was impressed by The Pantry - they offered smoothies, sparkling waters and quality teas and coffees. The fruit and snacks are available 24 hrs and in the morning there was cereal, yogurts, and pastries.

Everything about this hotel is honestly just so so good! As soon as we arrived, one of the members of staff was really sweet and gave us some really good recommendations of where the best places are to visit in Edinburgh. All the staff were all very lovely!! The lounge, patio and pantry were all such great additions to our stay but the bedroom was 10/10. I’ve never slept so well in all my life - the beds were soooo comfortable and the shower was also great, with lovely smelling shampoo and soaps provided! Not a bad word to say about the hotel, made our stay in Edinburgh masses more enjoyable
