Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location with decently sized rooms, a very good breakfast and a remarkably comprehensive gym. Staff were excellent and helpful. Only issue is that some areas look a bit work but it seems a renovation is underway. Perhaps related to that, one of two main elevators was not in service but at least the elevator operating was large and fairly fast so no major queues."

Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"We got a great deal on the room and though it is off the beaten path it was well worth the Uber. We do not golf but the grounds are extensive and beautiful. We used the pool, saunas and nature trail to meet the beautiful horses. The breakfast was pricey so we skipped but the room was humongous by European standards, clean well appointed. If you choose to stay I'd recommend multiple nights to take advantage of all of the amenities and services available."

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 5 nights and we had the best time in Edinburgh Check-in/check-out experience was very smooth Staff friendliness and professionalism was excellent We had a little issue but was promptly resolved by the staff Special mention Vicky, thank you very much Room cleanliness and comfort was good with the best view in the world Housekeeping was very helpful Shannon who served us our drinks was very friendly Location was perfect with easy access to near enough everything Breakfast selection was great I would happily stay here again and would recommend it to both business travellers and tourists looking for a central location."
