Great Location

The location of the Sheraton is very good. The staff, especially the bellman who took a "wee bit" of time to explain the high tech electronics in the room were very helpful. The hotel included a restaurant named Santini where we had an exceptional meal.

Great hotel with excellent spa! Perfect location - close to everything without being on the main street which is very, very loud. Pool was excellent and spa great!

Great Location, View, Service, & Price!

First of all, the location of the hotel was great; a 5 minute walk and you were at the castle and the start of the Royal Mile. We ended up upgrading our room to a Castle View Club Room for a great price. With the room we also got a free breakfast and cocktail & h'orderves (the h'orderves were amazing) every day. The room itself was very large, and it was absolutely spotless. The view was stunning, looking directly at the csatle, providing a perfect location to watch the Edinburgh Festival fireworks over the castle. The service at the hotel was also amazing, and we relied heavily on the concierge's recommendations, which were all excellent. We did not have to lift a finger to get tours booked, as the hotel took care of everything, even if you went outside their recommendations. We exercise a lot, and made full use of the gym, which was state of the art and very clean. When we go back to Edinburgh, we will definitely be staying at the Sheraton Grand again, hopefully next time we'll get a chance to take advantage of the Spa which looked immaculate.

Sightseeing tip: Long walk from hotel

Arthur's Seat. Arthur's Seat is a big hill, or small mountain just south of the Holyrood Palace. It is quite a hike to the top, and some of the footing can be a bit tricky, but the views you get of the city are breathtaking and provide for some very special pictures and memories. We are a relatively fit couple and we spent about 2 hours or so getting to the top of the highest peak, taking pictures, and then coming back down. There were two other peaks we didn't go to that were lower. And I should mention that we did take a couple more daring shortcuts up to the top that probably cut down the amount of time it would normally take to get to the top of the mountain. However, there were people of all ages making the hike, and I would recommend this to everyone as the views are very special.

Overpriced for what is offered.

Overpriced for what is offered. Generally UK Hotels of this standard, are below US and European equivilants. Bathrooms are small and cramped. Showers in the Bath.....these days you could remove the Bath Tubs, and put in a decent shower.
