I travelled on business for two weeks to Edinburgh after 14 years. The company had booked me the Royal Terrace Hotel. Having got out of the Emirates Business class where I had been pampered for nearly ten hours, I was a bit disappointed when I opened the doors to the room allotted to me (206). The room was perhaps the... More

Stayed at the Royal Terrace Hotel in Scotland for 4 nights. After 20 to 30 mins walk got to the hotel which the hotel claim is 5-10 mins walk from Waverly Station. We were met by a very arrogant receptionist ( not at all helpful) I had requested in my booking a second floor room I was told that because... More

I spent a night there on a business trip, but the booking was made by someone else, and I would never choose to go back there. My first impression was not great, as the carpet in the reception area was shabby and the receptionists were chatting among each other, rather than attending to their guest. When I opened the door...

My sister and I stayed 2 nights at this hotel with a Travelzoo offer. The hotel is pleasant and clean, in quiet location only 10 -15 mins walk from Princes Street. The staff were friendly and helpful and the twin bedded room was a reasonable size with facilities as advertised. The room overlooked the hotel's lovely rear garden backing on... More

Stayed here earlier this year for a rugby weekend. Staff were attentive and organised, hotel was well located, comfortable and rooms were spacious and well appointed. Only negative was the cost of the breakfast, which seemed slightly expensive for the quality and variety of options offered. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for one night at the end of March to attend a wedding in the hotel. We were upgraded from a deluxe room to one of the themed suites/rooms. We couldn't check in when we arrived which wasn't a problem and our bags were later taken to our room. Our room, The Aberlour. had a real unusual layout... More
