Edinburgh hotels near St Giles' Cathedral

Pros: Everything -architecture , management etc

Pros: The whole hospitality.

Pros: It was lovey

Pros: The location of the hotel and the room were excellent. We didn't try the hotel's breakfast as we were keen to explore the city. There were so many place to eat in Edinburgh that it seemed best to try a variety of places. The hotel's Afternoon Tea was superb though!

Pros: Impeccable elegance.

Pros: Extremely fine accommodations. Every staff member was friendly, helpful, and wanted to please each guest.

Pros: Zoltan at reception was a star. The restaurant and bar team were efficient and friendly. Rooms were clean and well appointed. Looking forward to our next visit

Pros: I told them I am severely asthmatic. When I walked into the room I immediately smelled musty old rug that was cleaned at least dozens of times and exhausted its useful life a long time ago. I went back to the front desk and told them needed a different room for medical reasons and willing to pay more. The front desk person and the day manager told me that they did not have availability without any serious they said no without any consideration and force me to sleep in this room where I ended up wheezing all night. They also lied to me that all the rooms were renovated at the same time and were the same. And it turns out that there were at least a few rooms available.

Pros: The Number One was a tremendous experience. The hotel and restaurant staff could not have been better during our stay. I would simply say keep it up!

Pros: The restaurant "Number one": excellent staff, good food. The location of the hotel and the view on the old city.

Pros: Lovely room, thoughtfully decorated, wonderful service.

Pros: The staff were absolute stars in the circumstances I hope the hotel appreciates their staff and looks after them. We will be back after this strange time is over.

Pros: Hotel and staff were excellent and perfect location, will stay there again.

Pros: Excellent service, great rooms, really have thought of everything. Excellent location to explore Edinburgh with super helpful staff to guide you. Any issues, the staff are more than happy to help. Nice restaurants and bars with excellent decor. Gym & spa facilities are great for a city hotel with nice swimming pool to relax in.

Pros: Absolutely loved this hotel. From the design to the history of the building to the incredibly friendly and helpful staff to the location to the spa... I could go on and on. Loved!

Pros: Great location and very friendly staff. Really like all Scottish people that we met! Hotel is in a great location to all things that are fun and interesting in Edinburgh! The rooms were very well decorated and had every thing we needed for our extended stay.

Pros: Decor, staff, location

Pros: Breakfast brilliant, great selection available, beautifully done

Pros: We asked to be in the same floor as our friends and after a small hiccup this was arranged.

Pros: The staff was very friendly and the architecture and location perfect for those visiting Edinburgh for the first time. Loved the beautiful spiral staircase! Very nice hotel.

Pros: The hotel is located brilliantly, the staff were amazing and the hotel was very nice and not too pretentious. The facilities were really good and the breakfast was fabulous. We sat in the main area for drinks and tea and loved the vibe. It was excellent and the staff were extremely helpful at all times. The only issue was that some things were missing from the room when we arrived - no soap (especially as this was at the beginning of the UK governments advice of hand washing with the Coronavirus), no milk for the tea/coffee. Also, the noise from the street outside was as though the street was in the room... they need to fit better windows to ensure better sound proofing. Due to the location of the hotel it is in the city centre and likely to be noisy but the hotel could improve this and fit proper windows. My suggestion is to book a room that is on the inside overlooking the courtyard - likely to be less noisy. The spa and pool were lovely and the again the staff could not be more helpful. We were celebrating our 50th birthdays and we were given a nice bottle of complimentary wine. We dined in the Baba restaurant one night and it was fabulous food and would highly recommend it. A great stay, just snuck in before social distancing measures and then lockdown...

Pros: Wow what an incredible experience! I throughly enjoyed my time at the Kimpton Charlotte Square location. Everything from the staff to the facilities was wonderful. The two restaurants Garden and Baba were extraordinarily good. We loved the spa and the pool as well. The location is right in Charlotte Square, so close to Princes Street and roughly twenty minutes walk away from Old Town. Everything was comfy and I would certainly stay here again!

Pros: The kind staff that upgraded our room and were so friendly and welcoming.

Pros: The location was perfect, the staff very helpful and the rooms were good size and perfectly clean.... I would definately stay at this hotel again
