The hotel/rooms were of a very high quality with a large amount of facilities available in the room, including tea/coffee facilities, iron and ironing board, usb charging ports, and large screen tv. Good locaton withing a few minutes walk of the mile and grassmarket. Only negatives were the front door was very stiff and difficult to open. Thankfully im a fit and able man but id imagine an elderly person would not have been able to open it. Also the temperature of the water on the hot water tap was extreme. Definitely worth turning down slightly.

Very nice hotel in central location

Pros: The location, the staff and the amenities including rooms were very good.
Cons: Maybe the breakfast could be improved, more bread/ rolls and fresh salad.
Location: Next to all interesting sites such as National Scotish Museum and the castle. Shopping street and center are close by.
The hotel was very comfortable and is located in a nice a quiet part of the city. Short walk to the museum and the castle. Shopping also not far away. The rooms we took were nice and also quite big, especially one of them. The beds were really great. Altogether a very good experience.

Nice hotel pretty central for everything

Pros: Friendly, choice of meals available which also included room service for meals and reasonably priced.
Cons: Rooms should be thoroughly cleaned and checked before occupancy. Glasses supplied for drinks and a hairdryer.
Location: Location was good and central for almost everything, castle was only 10 minutes walk and 15 to Princess Street, shopping is great and bus tours.
On arrival staff were very polite and friendly, our room was on 3rd floor but it had a lot of traffic noise especially early morning with deliveries for the hotel. The room itself was nice but no hairdryer or iron but did manage to get iron from reception. The cleanliness needs addressed, the long mirror was not cleaned and had hair hanging from it so did the bath. The back of bathroom door had not been cleaned apart from these few issues it was a pleasant stay. Breakfast cost another £10 each but couldn't fault it plenty choice and delicious. Hotel itself was very clean and fresh and had a very friendly atmosphere.

Dear Ruth Thank you for your review following your recent stay at The City Hotel I am pleased to read that you found the central location of the property convenient. However, I am concerned to read that you left feeling underwhelmed with certain aspects of your stay specially the cleanness in the bathroom. As hotel we do provide high level of cleanness as you can see from the most of the review, i am sorry to hear that we felt sort during your stay.We provide hairdryer in each every room in the hotel. It is placed in the top drawer of the working table underneath the TV I am very glad to read pleased to read your great comments on our friendly team, the breakfast you had in the morning I surely pass your kind comments to all the staff members for the excellent customer service you received during your stay. As with every business things can go wrong and it is only feedback good or bad that we can progress the business and give the highest level of service possible. Your review is important part of this process at Edinburgh City Hotel as it helps us to recognise where our service could be improved.. Hope to see in near future Kind Regards Sunny Verma General Manager

Top Lage und perfekt für einen Kurztripp. Saueberkeit ist leider ein Fremdwort dort. Wen es nicht stört würde ich dieses Hotel empfehlen. Für empfindliche würde ich raten mehr Geld in ein Hotel zu investieren. Frühstück war gut.
