Under renovation but nice

This Hilton was great. Although nowhere near as pretty as the pictures since it's undergoing renovation but that's alright. Beds were super comfortable and the room was spacious.

Short family break

Hotel is in the perfect location for sightseeing and shopping. Very close to train station. Rooms clean and spacious. Breakfast good quality. Only downside, one lift was out of order and took a while to get one.

Great location

Lovely hotel with friendly staff in a good location for the sights and shopping. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. The lifts were a bit slow, but this seems to be the case for all Hiltons globally!

Lovely stay!

Was a lovely hotel in a lovely part of Edinburgh. The concierge took our bags for us on checkout day so that we were able to continue exploring as our train wasn’t till later on that day. Could not fault anything in the hotel.

Christopher, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Good location, that's about it.

Hotel was ok, service was hit and miss. Miss more often than hit to be fair. Water wasn't replaced in the rooms when it was turned over. Issue with payment for room service not being detected which resulted in me having to go down to the bar at 10pm to prove I'd paid. Long queue to get breakfast do to understaffing. Hotel is in a great location but if your looking for a traditional grand building this isn't it. You'll struggle find an original feature.

Carol, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Big disappointment!

The hotel has a superb location, BUT thats where the plusses stop. Staff is unhelpful and none responsive to requests/issues raised. The rooms are run down, and the beds sinking on the sides. Room amenities are basic and just meet 4 star requirements. This hotel is NOT 4 stars, nor close to the Hilton international standard.
Ferdinand, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

So much potential but needs adjustments

The beautiful hotel is in an excellent location. There is a lot of construction, which would have been nice to know before booking. It hindered the overall ambiance and view from our room. We had two rooms, both with two beds. The first room was large and beautiful, however, the room did not cook well. The second room (right next door) was smaller, had tears in both headboards, and smelled of mildew. In addition, the hair dryer was missing the motor cover and sucked in one of our guests hair, resulting in her having to cut the hair loose to remove it. The pillows and mattresses are sub par. The breakfast was a feast and very delicious.
