Very charming hotel, very clean, and the staff was very friendly. The breakfast was good, but get there early as they do run out of some things. The lounge area was nice for relaxing, and there is a little outdoor seating area that was very pleasant. Great location for exploring Royal Mile and surrounding area.

Our stay at the Royal Scots Club was excellent from beginning to end. The building is full of character, combining historic charm with modern comfort. The location is ideal—on a quiet street, yet within easy walking distance of Edinburgh’s major sights. The staff was consistently professional, courteous, and helpful throughout our stay. Our room was clean, comfortable, and attractive, and the breakfasts were very good with a nice selection each morning. We would gladly stay at the Royal Scots Club again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, well-located place to stay while visiting Edinburgh.

We stayed in the family suite which had a double and 2 singles. The room had lots of floor space, so it made it comfortable to stay in for a week. There was also a seating area with three chairs and a table as well as a desk. We appreciated the three drawer dresser so that we could unpack and not live out of suitcases for the week. The bathroom was large with all of the necessary as well as a additional amenities. Our room had a coffee maker and a kettle as well as tea, coffee, and hot chocolate and cookies. Housekeeping was very thorough and our room was cleaned each day. The beds were comfortable and the towels were very large and soft. The location of this hotel is ideal. A short walk to Old Town as well as places to explore in New Town. Quick access to buses to the airport. There were lots of cafes and restaurants around the hotel as well as a private park to access across the street. This hotel also serves as a private club for veterans so it has lots of amenities like a restaurant and a bar and lots of history to explore. It is in a quiet neighborhood away from the tourists but is still well located for quick access to major sites. We visited during a hot spell, and the room did get warm but there was a fan and if you open the windows it was still quite comfortable.

This was my second time to stay here. I was assigned the same room, which was a big plus. It is spacious and in an ideal location. Having large luggage, the lift is convenient and really appreciated.

Pamela • Family Trip

We were lucky enough to stay in the Executive Deluxe Twin Ground Floor room which provided us more room than we expected. The room was laid out perfectly for us to coexist providing great space for both of us. Our stay with you from June 4-7, 2026 was a great introduction to Edinburgh and now we want more! The location of your hotel was perfect for getting around the city and the history involved made it even more special. By the time we left to go to the next city we felt like we were wanting to explore more! Thank you so much for your hospitality and we look forward to being with you again real soon.

Very quiet. A few of the employees didn't want to be there and it showed.

Room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They have a decent bar and food available every day. The hotel is also only about 15-20 minutes walk to the centre of Edinburgh and train station.

Riccarda • Trip with Friends

Es war ein grossartiger Aufenthalt im Royal Scot Club. Das Badezimmer ist frisch renoviert und das Zimmer in bester Ordnung und sehr ruhig gelegen. Der Empfang freundlich und zügig gut organisiert. Das schönste war, dass wir an einem Abend, als ein offizieller Clubabend war, wo ein Mitglied aus dem Militär nach 25 Jahren Dienstzeit verabschiedet wurde, so freundlich integriert wurden. Wir standen zwischen Offizieren in den schönsten Uniformen und militärischen Kilts und ihren Frauen in Abendkleidern und wurden so freundlich willkommen geheissen und alle unsere neugierigen Fragen wurden beantwortet. Es war mega sympatisch. Wir kommen gerne wieder. Aus Diskretionsgründen veröffentliche ich keine Fotos von der Party.

Clean, quiet, comfortable room. Friendly and very helpful staff. Great breakfast. Close enough to tram, restaurants ans shopping, but still far enough away to be quiet and relaxing. First time in Scotland and this was the perfect place to stay! Highly recommend!

Ashley • Family Trip

We had a wonderful stay. We didn't expect a huge room, given that it was in Edinburgh, so we thought it was a great space considering. Was very clean and quiet. The front desk host was very helpful, and we appreciated being able to leave our bags on the day of checkout as we explored the city. It's hard to find a family space for 4, so this worked great. Great location, great place, wished we had stayed longer.

The property was so cool and had great history! The room was very clean and comfortable. The best towels ever and wonderful shower. The club has access to the private park across the street so that was a bonus to relax there after long days of walking!
