We stayed here for 2 nights and can say with complete honesty it lives up to the usual high standards associated with the Hilton brand. We ordered room service on night one which arrived in very quick time and tasted delicious everything we ordered was fresh and great quality. The beds at the Hilton are always a highlight for me with quality linens and amazingly comfortable pillows you’ll be sure to get a solid nights sleep after long hours exploring Edinburgh. Our room was ready for when we arrived at 10:30 and the staff at the desk were extremely helpful. My only foible with the room was that upon looking under our bed there was a small amount of litter from previous guests, maybe a one off due to the small amount however maybe something for the hotel to address. To conclude regardless of the small amount of litter found under the bed I would say this hotel deserves 5 stars for everything, I would highly recommend staying here and should I ever return to Edinburgh I would love to stay again.

Our booking came with executive lounge access which included a full breakfast in the morning and nice reception each evening that provided a variety of drinks and a rotation of appetizers and salad which were enough to make a light meal from. We found this to be a nice perk to our stay - in addition to the 24/7 access to non-alcoholic drinks and snacks. The only tricky part of our stay was the elevator. For the first few days there was only one small elevator servicing the main lobby so there'd sometimes be long waits. The stairs were easily accessible though, and provided an easy way to avoid the elevator (at least on trips going down). It was also a little convoluted to get to the fitness room (i.e., requiring you to use a different elevator in another part of the building - not accessible from the ground floor), but easy enough to figure out once we figured out the round about way to get there. There was also a small flight of stairs in the middle of the floor we stayed on (perhaps others?). The hotel was in a perfect location on the Royal Mile and very easily accessible to the Edinburgh train station (albeit requiring a pretty long flight of stairs to get up to the right level - or a slightly longer walk to avoid the stairs). It would be great if the hotel could provide access to the hotel from the lowest level (i.e., the road level that the train station exit is at). The bar/lounge on the main level was really nice and our room was comfortable and clean.

Great room for family of 4. Ideal location in the old town, middle of Royal Mile so 15 mins to Holyrood Palace at the bottom and Edinburgh Castle a 15 minute walk the other way. High Street was bustling in the evening with street performers and lots of places to eat out. Breakfast buffet at the hotel was fantastic, the kids enjoyed the pastries and pancakes! We will definitely be back. Thank you for a great first city break as a family.

Excellent location, just a few yards off the Royal Mile. We easily took tram from airport & walked 10 minutes from St Andrews square with our luggage…lots of luggage! Delicious breakfast.

Marisa • Family Trip

Enjoyed my stay.The location was excellent and my primary result for selecting the Hilton. The staff were very helpful. My room was nicely furnished. Bed was very comfortable. Very convenient to have a small fridge in the room which is not always so in other hotels. I also felt safe with extra fitting which would prevent someone coming in if they manage to unlock the door. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

They finally finished construction and the place is 100% better and looks modern but in a rustic sort of way. Staff is wonderful especially Shaha who checked me in and worked with me to give me a great weeks stay.

Loved our room. It was one of the bigger rooms with a King Size Bed. We were on the 3rd floor and had a view of the ocean ( well there was scaffolding somewhat in the way)

Marc • Family Trip

Old hotel with very nice newly renovated rooms, was there twice during the trip; once in the executive wing where the room was huge by European norms and then in a regular room ethic wax also just fine. The only negative is the lifts (elevators) - at one point there was only one in service and even when both were running they are slow and inadequate for the amount of traffic. Plan on using the stairs.
