Stayed at this hotel in October for a two night break. Chose the hotel because of its location which is excellent and also because there were smoking rooms available. Our room (112) on the first floor was large with a king size bed and also a single bed. Bathroom was clean and so was the room. Coffe/tea/hot chocolate making facilities... more

The staff was allways very friendly, helpfull and competent. The location couldn't be better, right in the new city center, and 10 mins walk from the old city center. This little hotel gives you great value for your money. more

The hotel room was filthy, worn out and did not reflect the three star rating as represented. It was not worth $216 Canadian. We were completely disappointed. If this is a three star hotel, than heaven knows what a one star rating represents...A jail cell in Kabul? more

I travelled by myself to Edinburgh and chose this hotel due to the location. I received an email from the hotel a few days before departure with instructions on getting to the hotel which i thought was very nice. Their email stated that a taxi would be about £10, as my flight was delayed and it was close to midnight... more

Perfectly located for exploring both the medieval and Georgian parts of the central city directly across from the train station - everything within walking distance, including tourist information & internet access directly across the road. Good spread for breakfast and good dinner menu. Lovely view from the evening dining room over the old city. Fantastic view of the castle at... more

We booked 6 months in advance for two nights, paying at the time of booking US$459.00 up front. We were so disappointed when we arrived. Not only could we not park nearby (we expected that) but there was no provision to even drop off luggage - we were expected to carry it ourselves the 200 yards from the carpark. But... more

I only needed a place to stay for 1 night as I was visiting a friend, and the reviews for the Royal British on tripadvisor looked decent so I booked it. Location wise you cant fault it, right on Princes St and opposite Waverley train station. That's where the praise ends though, inside it is very shabby and old, desperately... more

I stayed at the Royal British for two nights in May whilst visiting a colleague in Edinburgh. I needed a place that was centrally located, where a single woman would feel safe, and that was not too dear. The Royal British filled those needs well. The hotel is literally across the street from Edinburgh Waverley station. I now know how... more

Spent several days in Edinburgh with my husband and we enjoyed our stay at Royal British. Saved $$$ parking at the Sherrifield park and ride and took the bus straight to the property. Although the decor is dated, the customer service, full Scottish breakfast and convenience to popular sights, more than made up for it. Our room was spacious and... more
