Staff were very friendly and informative, enjoyed the tour of the hotel on arrival, the staff couldn't have done anymore for you. Excellence service and facilities. Lots of nice little touches. Between 5-6pm they offer complimentary drinks in the bar area, limited drinks, we didn’t utilise but nice touch. Stunning hotel very peaceful for such a busy environment and establishment.

Just finished our stay here for our 2nd year anniversary. The hotel is so nice and the staff were great, they went above and beyond to make our stay extra special.
The hotel is in great location for exploring the city both new and old. Will definitely stay here again when we come back.

Stunning hotel, inside & out. Very attentive staff. Nothing was too much trouble. Very comfortable room. Great location for shopping, restaurants, sights in Edinburgh & public transport. Easy walking distance too. Sadly, slept badly the 2nd night due to noise from public, in the street, until 03.30. Staff at the hotel were very apologetic but obviously it’s not their fault. We would recommend this hotel to others.

Excellent hotel in central location with friendly and welcoming staff. Love that they offer a social hour with a free drink in the bar. Hotel spa and pool were great to unwind in after a busy day’s sightseeing. Highly recommend.

Nice property, staff very welcoming and efficient. Very helpful and accommodating with our couple of requests (extra pilllows, need for a converter). Bathroom is nice with plenty of room. Appreciated the snacks and water available in our room. Bed was comfortable and bedding nice. Enjoyed a meal at Baba, service and food was great. Enjoyed our stay.

This is an older hotel so part of the charm experience is just knowing it’s older. If you have allergies or if old-building scents bother you, take this into consideration. Staff are exceptionally friendly which is a win but for the cost, I expected more from the overall experience. Bed was super comfortable, wifi was great and the area was very safe.

I would definitely stay at this hotel again. Visited Edinburgh for the first time, and found the location perfect. Situated in New Town (early 1700s - Georgian) and housed along a beautiful historic streetscape - it is perfect for shopping along Princes Street, walkable to Waverly Station. Majestic view of Edinburgh castle at the end of the street. Very close to pick up for Hop on Hop off buses. I stayed in a single room, small but definitely enough space, clean, great bathroom - and yoga mat! Added the breakfast - food was great - try the Haggis! Enjoy the bacon!! .The one confusing thing about this hotel (esp at breakfast time) is the coffee .. which is needlessly bad. So easy to install a nespresso machine.or other automatic machine that would make great coffee and completely level up the experience for coffee drinkers. But I do not want to complain about this hotel - Free drinks from 5 pm to 6 pm everyday ,,, lovely decor, great location, clean. We didn't have time to explore everything - the spa amenities for example.

This was a perfect place to stay in Edinburgh. Close to everything. The hotel was awesome because it was so quaint and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The rooms were cozy and clean! I just loved everything about this place!
8.0 / 10.0
Very lovely staff, and cutely decorated hotel.
I wouldn't call it spotlessly clean, hence 4 stars instead of 5, but I wouldn't mind staying there again. Convenient location too.
It would be nice if they had a bit more variety (especially vegetables) in the breakfast buffet.
5.0 / 10.0
Fabulous hotel. Everything about it is just perfect. Staff very lovely and nothing was too much for them.
The location is great as youre away from the mass crowds of the Royal Mile. But, not too far from all the attractions. It's situated on a fab road with many great shops and restaurants.
I highly recommend this hotel and we will definately be back! Catherine.

The property was fine. The area was amazing. But the staff at checking seemed confused. I only stayed one night … but just noticed that my credit card had been charged three (3) times?? Can you please assist me to correct this. I was charged twice by the Kimton Hotel $450.28 CDN on July 19 and $540.41 CDN also on July 19 and $617.86 CDN by Expedia on July 18th? I can’t believe that this could happen. Can you please contact me by email at [email protected]. Thank you Radek Sedivy

love this hotel and have stayed before. Unfortunately we were given a disabled room with view of a wall. Also now charge £8 room service which I have never been charged at any Kimpton or 5 star hotel. Would expect room service not to be chargeable in a hotel of this standard
