Amazing
GGuest UserNo wonder it has such a high rating on Trip.com, I really loved it! The location is also excellent, within walking distance to most of Edinburgh's main attractions. There's a convenience store right across the street, and a very popular chain steakhouse just a 2-minute walk away. The interior design is very elegant. While I was staying, a few small in-room amenities (like the electric curtains) suddenly broke. After reporting it on the iPad, someone came to fix them immediately. Having a kitchen was a huge bonus; it was a lifesaver for my 'Chinese stomach' that was tired of eating English breakfast every day.

GGuest UserThe hotel was conveniently located about 20 minutes from the airport by tram and about 15 minutes from Edinburgh Waverley by train. There is a large outlet mall with big supermarket names (Tesco, Aldi, etc) about 10 minutes away. Quite a convenient place to stay for a couple of days! Staff were really helpful and friendly. The bed was comfortable and the room was very quiet. Really enjoyed my stay at this hotel!
GGuest UserA comfortable two‑night stay with friendly service, clean rooms, and a relaxing atmosphere. The location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions, and the staff were consistently helpful. Overall, a pleasant experience with good amenities and smooth check‑in. Would happily return for another short break.

AAnonymous UserHere's a breakdown of my experience:
1. **Great Location!** It took me about 15 minutes to walk to the Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection from the Edinburgh train station with my luggage. It would be even quicker without bags.
2. **Fantastic Views!** From the restaurant window, you can see a large monument, and in the distance, ancient castles and mountains. It was truly delightful. (Image)
3. **Convenient Transportation!** The Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection is located on the famous Princes Street, and it's a short walk to Edinburgh Castle, less than a kilometer away. (Image of hotel exterior)
4. **Healthy and Abundant Breakfast.** (Image)
5. **Unique Restaurant Decor!** I loved the large plates in the restaurant with their decorative dots – a very distinctive touch! (Image)
6. **Spacious Room!** My room had one super-king bed and one single bed.

GGuest UserThe room isn't very big, and the location is a bit far from Edinburgh Waverley Station. It's a bit of a walk with luggage, but still acceptable. It's not far from the bus station, which is convenient for taking day tour buses. The service was good; they proactively arranged two room changes for us. The pillows weren't comfortable, so I slept a bit restlessly. Overall, it's still pretty good.

JJolly TkI visited Edinburgh over Easter, which was also my birthday, and had a wonderful stay. Magda was incredibly kind and arranged an early check-in before noon after I confirmed the day before. She also surprised me with balloons and chocolates in my room for my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The staff provided clear information and gave excellent recommendations on places to visit, making my first trip to Edinburgh even more enjoyable. The hotel’s central location was perfect, close to all the main attractions, and the pool was a great bonus.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would happily visit again.

GGuest UserThe hotel is a 15-minute walk from Princes Street and just a 3-minute walk from the bus stop. It's a tall Victorian house with both a bathtub and a shower. The front desk staff were very friendly and offered free luggage storage. They also provided complimentary fruit, coffee, and shortbread cookies at the front desk.

GGuest UserNancy and the heavily made-up auntie who did the cleaning provided excellent service. The washing machine and dishwasher in my original room, 27 on the second floor, were broken. They later moved me to room 23, where the appliances worked, though they were a bit old. However, when I went to shower at night, I found the hot and cold water taps were broken and I couldn't adjust the temperature at all. There was no one at the front desk at night, and the water was scalding hot. I informed the staff on Saturday morning, but it still wasn't fixed when I returned that evening. It remained broken until I checked out on Tuesday. I don't know how I managed to get through those days with only scalding hot water.
There's a bar downstairs, and I was woken up twice on the first night by the noise. On another night, I was woken up at 12 AM by people celebrating a birthday.

GGuest UserExcellent Location, but Serious Security Lapses
I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a bit of a mixed bag. While there are some undeniable perks to the property, a few significant service and security issues made for a rather unsettling experience.
The Highlights
Prime Location: This is easily the hotel's strongest suit. It’s situated right next to Haymarket station, and there is a bus stop literally just outside the front door. Getting into the city centre takes no more than 10 minutes, making it a perfect base for exploring.
Commendable Service: The reception team provided a decent welcome. I’d like to give a special mention to Shreyas, who was incredibly helpful and professional throughout our interactions.
Quality Dining: We ate at the on-site restaurant and were pleasantly surprised. The food was of a high standard, and the waitstaff were attentive and friendly.
Room Maintenance & Tech Issues
Unfortunately, the shine started to wear off once we settled into the room:
Housekeeping Oversights: Despite this being a multi-day stay, the complimentary water bottles were never replaced after the first day.
Faulty Tech: The in-room tablet was practically useless. It kept restarting due to a battery fault; ironically, it even cut out while I was trying to use it to contact reception.
Privacy Concerns: When we requested extra toilet roll, the staff member who delivered it attempted to walk straight into the room using their key, rather than knocking and waiting for us to answer. It was a complete breach of basic hospitality etiquette.
A Major Security Concern
The most distressing part of the trip occurred on our second day. Upon returning to our room in the evening, we were shocked to find the main door open. It appears the cleaning staff had failed to secure the door after finishing their rounds.
Finding your hotel room left open to the public is, quite frankly, scary. It’s a massive security fail that overshadowed the rest of the stay. While the location is brilliant, the hotel desperately needs to tighten up its staff training and safety protocols.
Would I stay again? Only if I were certain that the security and maintenance issues had been addressed.

CChen LavenderFantastic experience!
I stayed in a 10-person room, which was very spacious, and the bathrooms and toilets were all very clean! The staff provided excellent service, and I was able to store my luggage both before and after check-in. They even noticed it was my birthday and gave me a voucher! 🥰 Plus, the breakfast was great! Overall, a wonderful experience 🫶
