This hotel is a pitfall. We booked a terrace king room, but the terrace was on the first floor, while the front desk was on the sixth floor, so the view from the terrace was like a frog in a well. The most terrible thing was that the two first-floor rooms we were given could not be reached by the elevator, so we had to carry our luggage by ourselves, and the porter ignored us after seeing us. We had no choice but to spend the money for the terrace room on a room with no view and no terrace, just to have an elevator. The facilities in the room were OK, except that it was small. There was a waiter who spoke Chinese at breakfast, which was very convenient. But it was obvious that this person was exhausted, and she was the one who spoke Chinese at the reception. Also, you need to climb stairs or walk up a steep slope to get to the hotel. I really felt tired, and the cost performance was not high.

The hotel is in a great location, and it is very convenient for eating and walking. The hotel is very unique and very photogenic! The room is clean and tidy, the front desk and luggage storage are very good, it is worth staying, and it is worth the trip

The room is a little small, but it is very comfortable. The location is very good. You can walk everywhere. I arrived in the morning and checked in immediately. I was very happy. The hotel is on Victoria Street. The hotel balcony looks down to another street.

This hotel is really my favorite hotel in the past few days in the UK. In fact, it is only a long way up the slope from Edinburgh Waverley Station, but I took a taxi with my luggage and arrived in a few minutes. The hotel waiter will help you get the luggage and take you to the front desk to check in. I booked a room with a terrace online for two days, but for some reason (maybe the hotel is too popular), she took me to a terrace overlooking the patio on the first day. I didn't like it very much. If I live upstairs, there will be no terrace. I negotiated with their manager and if I live upstairs, there will be no terrace on the first day. On the second day, I can upgrade to a terrace for free (a bit speechless, but I don't want to be affected by such things when I go out to play). So I think it's better to live upstairs for one day without a terrace. On the second day, they changed my room. Edinburgh is really a great city. The whole city has a medieval atmosphere. Jay Chou's MV "Obviously" was also shot in Edinburgh, a city named after romance, especially on rainy days, it's great! But at least three days are required, not too short, so that you can have fun without being too rushed! So after changing to a room with a terrace on the second day, I booked another day! I really like the room they changed for me this time. The overall feeling is very nice.

I booked a terrace room. It was unnecessary! I took the elevator to the third floor, and then walked around in a corner and took the stairs to the fourth floor... I couldn't see anything on the terrace, and it was windy in Edinburgh... It was unnecessary. Everything else was pretty good. The room was okay! I had a couple of drinks at the bar in the evening. The cocktails were okay. The breakfast was also good, with Libyan ham and smoked salmon. It was richer than the average hotel.

Environment: The overall environment is very good, the room is cleaned very well, especially the corners are free of stains. The used bath towels are replaced every day, the bed is made, and there is a special dressing table in the room.
Service: The hotel staff are very enthusiastic and greeted, and luggage can be stored 🧳
(Maybe Edinburgh is an old city, my friend said that the room was a little noisy at night 👻, but it did not affect the rest, it is worth experiencing)

The hotel is great. The Virgin Group specially designed it. It has a very unique atmosphere. The service is five-star. The enthusiasm of the front desk guy and the waiters are all global five-star services. The cultural characteristics of the thousand-year-old city are integrated in the hotel. Just staying in the hotel is a different travel experience.

The room was so small that it was hard to breathe. The child couldn't sleep that night. He couldn't wait to leave for the first time. The experience of this hotel was very bad. I can't describe it in words. In short, it was very uncomfortable. The location is surrounded by Victoria Street but the design of the hotel is very strange. At this price, I stayed at the Marriott Intercontinental Metropolis. Okay, the whole ancient city is not big.

The Old Scotland Hotel is not big, the rooms are also small, the staff are quite enthusiastic and patiently explain how to play, the breakfast is very basic and average, you can order breakfast but you need to pay extra.

The most satisfying hotel on this trip around the UK is absolutely beautiful. It is convenient to travel, and all major attractions are within walking distance. The breakfast buffet is quite satisfying, and the à la carte items for extra money are pretty good. Would stay again.

The hotel is in an excellent location, just next to the Royal Mile. It is a ten-minute walk from the station and the National Museum of Scotland. However, there are ups and downs and steps to get to the station. It is a little inconvenient if you carry heavy luggage. The hotel reception is on the sixth floor, and the terrace on the seventh floor has a view. Yes, the restaurant is on the first floor. If breakfast is included in your reservation, you can choose buffet or order food. You can choose one of the two. It is recommended to go out from the first floor of the restaurant and go shopping around the street.
