I couldn’t have asked for a better location from which to explore Edinburgh. The property is conveniently situated in the Old Town on the Royal Mile and within easy walking distance to many unique attractions. Even better was the hotel staff, who were all extremely professional, pleasant and accommodating. I ate one breakfast and several dinners at Luckenbooths, which is a nice restaurant located within the hotel — it was lovely to have that option at the end (or beginning) of a long day. I would not hesitate to recommend this property.

Overall a wonderful stay! Helpful staff and great food. The only downside was the rattling from the air con vent in room 501. Even with the air con off the vent rattled constantly right outside the snug bedroom. It made getting to sleep tricky.

The best stay

This was such a pleasant surprise - we were absolutely blown away by the service and the standard at the Old Chambers. We were given a room upgrade to an alcove room and it was a beautifully presented, spacious room with an additional bed which was helpful. The space was thoughtfully planned out and the bathroom was top standard. It had everything we could need in the kitchen and there were plenty of cutlery and crockery items for our needs. Best of all was the incredibly thoughtful, friendly service. Everyone we encountered seemed to genuinely take pride in their job and it really came through in their manner. Thank you to you all.
