Edinburgh inns

Pros: Loved the location- came to visit university Very helpful staff. No lift so I should have requested a lower floor but staff were happy to re accommodate me to something more accessible. Room included every convenience you could think of

Cons: A few information leaflets of the local area would have been helpful although not essential

Pros: Very clean, lots of little extras in the rooms. Most of the tables in the restaurant were reserved and all the bar seats were taken but we were found a table, nothing was too much trouble for us as a hotel guest so thank you for that

Cons: A little bit too hot in the rooms and couldn't get through to reception on the room phone had to go down to reception to speak to someone but didn't really spoil the stay

Pros: The food and atmosphere

Cons: Expensive for drinks

Pros: Lovely big, spotless, comfy bed. Good atmosphere, friendly staff and good music in bar/eating areas. Very good location to most attractions.

Cons: Leaving

Pros: Atmosphere

Cons: Smell in the stairs

Pros: This is the 2nd time I've stayed at Ricks and will probably use it again. My son is at uni in Edinburgh so this is an inexpensive place to stay in when I visit him. Food is great and reasonable price, found drinks very expensive though.

Pros: Staff very friendly Rooms clean, modern and spacious Lively bar Good breakfast

Cons: WiFi really poor Room was at back of property- noisy with clearing of glass and bottles in morning

Pros: The best things regarding Rick's Hotel are the location, the friendly and helpful staff, the facilities in the rooms (inc iPod and ghd hair straighteners) as well as the bar/restaurant on the ground floor.

Cons: The only thing I didn't like was the fact thet the hotel does not have a lift, but it didn't affect our enjoyment of our stay.

Pros: We appreciated the sheer quality of the bed and all the bedding, the best in any hotel we have ever stayed in.

Cons: It's city centre and you have to accept it's noisy.

Pros: location. Verey nice room. Good facilities in the room.

Cons: Breakfasts were quite disappointing. Dry toast with no butter nor conserve offered. Cheap poor quality sausages. I would have p[referred a breakfast buffet but I do see that with a smal hotel this might not be feasible. Maybe just a make your own toast area? Excellent coffee.

Cons: There was nothing that we didn't like.

Pros: Everything else plus doggy friendly

Cons: Bathrooms could do with a bit of TLC

Cons: The room was clean but a little small and closed in. No proper milk for a cup of tea. Only coffee whitener. No non slip mats in the bathroom.

Pros: price and location good for what we required.

Cons: larger bathroom.

Pros: this was a great B * B. We were met at the door by a very nice young man and efficiently shown to our room. The room was very comfortable. Location was excellent, as we were able to walk to everything we wanted to see.

Cons: The shower was just barely warm.

Pros: Staff was very friendly, close to the city centre. Good value for money

Cons: Very small bathroom, breakfast from 9 so if you want an early start it’s a bit late. No hot breakfast

Pros: - We stayed for 2 nights and they clean the room everyday. -Breakfast was Continental and the quality of the products was good. Advice, if you miss something in the breakfast let them know it.

Cons: - The firts night we had to stay without hot water and no heating system. The second night they had to provide us a electrical heater. They should understand that travellers from other sides of the world may be cold at 10-12 degrees even if they dont. - We asked for a baby cot and the first night was busy. The second night they told us that was broken for the night before. I strongly believe they lied to us both nights because I ask them to see the “broken coat” second night and I still waiting for it!

Pros: This was the perfect place to stay. Close enough to walk to the city center. Great food in this part of town as well. The owner is so great and offered suggestions for places to eat. She was very accommodating and hospitable. Breakfast was fantastic with eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, toast and jams, ect. Tea or coffee served. Would stay here again.

Cons: The Stairs are challenging to navigate.

Pros: The location was excellent, and it was the only good thing about the hotel. There are shops and restaurants just at the end of the road, and it's not too long a walk to get to the central areas of the city. The person at reception was friendly.

Cons: Normally I don't mind if the place I'm staying at is not perfect, and I'm prepared to ignore a few shortcomings. However, there was just too many things added up that I just could not ignore anymore, and I feel that the photographs are very misleading, as that is not the condition the hotel is at the moment. I might not have minded if it had been very cheap, but for the money we paid we were expecting at least a decent place to stay. 1) Hot water completely run out in the middle of my shower. Not being able to have a hot shower after 6 hours of driving across the country and having to shower with cold water was not the way I wanted to start my weekend in Edinburgh. 2) The shower was mouldy. I'm talking about mould on the electric shower dial and the shower hose (which was also leaking even when shower was not working). 3) During the day the room was freezing cold and there was no way of turning the heating on. 4) At breakfast there was not enough of anything, certainly not enough for everyone to have a bit of everything. No one was checking or replenishing anything. No water available. The table setting was inconsistent, there were plates and cups missing, only two plates had napkins on them (no other napkins available anywhere). 5) We had only 3 sachets of coffee in our room (meaning we could either have coffee in the evening we arrived OR the next morning, not both..). Our dirty coffee cups were not replaced the following day, and the coffees were not replenished. 6) We didn't have towels in the room when we arrived. When I asked for some towels we were given one large towel each, no hand/hair towel, no bathroom mat. 7) There was the previous guests' paperwork and used tourist leaflets left in the top drawer of our bedside table (obviously noone is checking the room properly). 8) The pipes in the bathroom are very noisy (sound like a jackhammer).
