Very helpful staff, great location and nicely appointed and large rooms. Bathrobes and decent sized towels in my room, which was lovely. The Bluetooth ceiling speakers were a bonus.

Here's a tip about room and bed types - they call things differently in some countries. I learned this, and now I will ALWAYS check with the hotel directly. Even if you've booked through Booking.com, it makes sense to check directly with the hotel independently. And be specific about what you require. They may not understand that you're expecting a certain type of bed arrangement, even if it is listed as your preference - the words have different meanings. And you shouldn't have to pay an extra amount for a different type of bed. All it requires is a little direct communication to understand fully. I'm not faulting Booking.com on this, but I am hopeful that descriptions could be amended to reflect the reality of a situation.

The location of the hotel is fantastic for everything. All the staff went above and beyond being helpful - it was my 40th birthday during our stay and nothing was too much trouble. We ate in the restaurant both nights and the staff were fantastic at amending my order for my needs. The front desk ordered us a taxi for our trip upto Leigh for a day at the Royal yatch and the taxi firm were brilliant too - I prefer hotel “approved/siggested” firms to finding one on Google when I’m away from home.

We had an amazing stay celebrating our babymoon! On arrival we were told we were upgraded and when we opened the door to the room we were blown away. The standard of the interior and decor was brilliant and we had a coffee machine and two TVs! We had a lovely congratulations message with macaroons. We drove and the hotel offers 20% off parking which made the cost very reasonable. Nothing was too much to ask. This hotel we will be coming back to and will be telling all my friends and family about. If you are in doubt you should book this place!!!

The location was SUPERB! Unbeatable. The staff were lovely, lovely, lovely. The decor was beautiful! The Grand Cafe restaurant was excellent. The lobby is delightful with a cozy fire, complimentary hot and cold drinks, and the daily newspaper.

The location is great, especially the elevator up from the train station exit. Staff were very friendly, and I appreciated the water and whisky left in the room. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Room service breakfast was prompt. Oh, and highly recommend checking out what movies are being shown at the cinema at the hotel - what a treat!

The Scotsman Hotel in Edinburgh exceeded our expectations during our week-long stay. Our room, thoughtfully designed with two comfortable beds and a cozy sitting area, provided the perfect retreat after long days of sightseeing. The hotel’s cleanliness and well-maintained amenities enhanced our experience, while the included breakfast was a fantastic addition—delicious, varied, and well worth opting for. The central location made exploring effortless, with the iconic Royal Mile just steps away, offering easy access to Edinburgh’s historic and cultural highlights. Overall, The Scotsman Hotel delivered an exceptional stay with outstanding accommodations, dining, and convenience. I highly recommend it to travelers seeking both comfort and prime city access.
