The Scotsman Hotel

Staff were kind. The rooms were nice and im good condition. Concierge was helpful. Room was nice.

There was only elevator and it is very small can get very crowded and long wait unless you want to take the stairs. Checkout was a nightmare since we had heavy suitcases and waited 15mins for an elevator we could for in and ended up taking 8 flights off stairs with our suitcases. I forgot that you don't get free breakfast day of checkout and I would have liked to be reminded of that fact instead of a surprise 40pound charge at checkout. Was only asked on the last day of the trip if I had an allergy and offered an allergy list. First day I asked and they spit a quick list. So 20p a piece and could only have a few things. We booked an extra day and did what we were told but were still called at checkout time asked why we hadn't left yet. We checked in that am as instructed and got new hotel key that still got deactivated.

It is just opposite to Waverley train station & very easy to get to the station from the hotel. This is the main reason we decided to stay here as we had an early train the next day. We also loved the bathroom with its huge walk in shower and excellent water pressure! This maybe the only part of the room that has been recently renovated

There were lots of stains on the carpet, some were very big patches and they should have had it professionally seen to. It just made the whole room seem dirty and very dated & tired. Our room was huge and seemed quite unwelcoming. There was only 1 lift working for guests & staff to use when we stayed there, so there was always quite a wait for the lift.

While check in was a bit cumbersome with little information provided, we made our way to our room (going through a wedding reception)(guided by an employee). The layout of the hotel is a bit odd, but an incredibly lovely old building. Our room was a bit noisy on the second night due to a loud neighbor. Breakfast was very nice! Bathroom was spotless. Only issue with cleanliness was the upholstered furniture was a bit dirty. Bed was clean and comfortable. The cafe service was delightful and food was very good.

I loved almost everything! My room, the staff, the location and the history.

Elevator

Convenient to transportation (Train & bus right across the street) and to local sites, restaurants and shops

Only 1 elevator in this big hotel

Bad choice, sorry not bad, but horrible

They give us a room without elevator to use , we climbed stairs after stairs, and told them to change the room due to physical mobility inability issues in knees They did nothing about it, unfortunately, Dear booking accountable , I don’t think I paid almost 3000 SAR for you to facilitate a very bad experience for ending my trip in Edinburgh,, I got to have from you a compensation , knowing that during that week I paid over 14,000 SAR using your facilitation in booking

Beautiful located. Very comfortable. Can’t fault anything.

Gym is adequate. Could be bigger. But it’s anold building so one understands that there are limitations.

All was great. Would recommend to stay / location, rooms, services/ all perfect
