we stayed here for 3 days. With the rate that we pay, i didnt expect much initially. Upon entering our room, i thank god for booking this hotel. Easy excess to town, good room, the breakfast is not the best but enough for traveller, i think. The computer at the front door is free for use, quite fast. I did... More

Near the calton hill, that was nice. And in Edinburgh it is easy to walk around. Firts when we came thay tried to make us pay although we had paid beforehand. The breakfast was not that good and the room looked nice but it seemed a bit "cheap". Shower was brand new! Well it was ok, but would not return... More

Paid £38 for a single room for 1 night through lastminute.com. I did get room 1 which is on the ground floor, by the front door and main road and above the restaurant which others have suggested is one to avoid. Had to arrive early as I was attending a wedding, staff were very accommodating about an early check in... More

I have been to more than 25 countries. Richmond House Hotel is a hidden jewel for budget travellers. The staff are attentive,helpful and polite. The breakfast is good. And the Thai Restaurant serves equally good authentic Thai food.It is worth all the money spent.Unless one compares what one can get from super luxury hotels. Don't come here then...throw your money... More

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and although it may be Central it is a complete and utter dump. We were allocated room 2 which is right above their Thai Restaurant, so the smell in the room of an evening was rather overpowwering. The twin beds faced each other and a television was mounted on the wall above the... More

Good value hotel with free parking locally at weekend. Central location with easy access to good restaurants and Payhouse Theatre. Rooms were basic but clean and comfortable beds. Good shower with clean towels. Breakfast excellent with plenty of choice and good service. Only negative feedback was noisy residents arriving back at hotel at early hours with no consideration for others.... More
