Top Notch Stay / Service
Absolutely loved our stay here. We were so warmly welcomed by Boris who made our stay so memorable - always greeting us with the biggest smile, making us laugh, and going above and beyond (and out of his way) to make sure we had what we needed to make the best of our time here. Thank you for your incredible hospitality Boris!! We will certainly be back!

Very disappointing
This hotel is on a VERY busy and noisy street in Edinburgh. If you come, you must ask for a room on the back side of the property to avoid throngs of people and street/traffic noise. Do not let the pretty lobby fool you. We reserved "Premium" rooms, one with a king and one with 2 doubles. I do not believe that this is what we received( we were told on check in that our class of room had changed due to the hotel being very busy!) and if in fact it was, we would really hate to see what a "Standard" room looks like. In the King room, the AC was broken, there was only one feeble light in the bathroom, and there was no complementary mini bar as there was supposed to be. The rooms were like any regular 3 star spartan generic hotel, and the cost was hugely inflated due to the Edinburgh Marathon that same weekend. Much more than the price we had booked under. This alone would have made us walk right out the door at check -in, but the entire city was sold out and we were captive there. There are many lovely hotels in Edinburgh. Don't make the mistake of staying in this one.

Wonderful stay at the Intercontinental
Visited Edinburgh on a business conference for 3 days. There is no parking at the hotel, however there is a drop off area and nearby NCP parking that was shown on arrival. Whilst the bar, restaurant and facilities are all very good, the staff are what make this hotel superb! The effort, courteousness and sense of humour is consistent throughout the entire hotel team and deserved of a great review!

Good Experience
This classic hotel is located in the heart of Edinburgh, convenient to the bus station as well as all the shops and restaurants on George Street and Prince Street. I booked the King Premium room which is spacious and quiet. The bathroom is nice but could do with more counter space. The breakfast buffet includes a made-to-order menu and the food from both are good. The front desk is very helpful. I have stayed here several times and would definitely stay here again.

Do not stay here
Dismal room. Gap between door and jam so not soundproof. Noisy fan, thermostat not working. Manager would not change rooms

Outstanding service made trip even more memorable!
We had a glorious stay, enjoying the wonderful setting, central location, and superb teamwork across everyone on the management and staff team. We were particularly grateful to Hannah, her management colleagues and all her team for going out of their ways to be responsive to our needs. We also are grateful to Monika and the reception team for her efforts to support communication and coordination. From front door through helpful room staff, we enjoyed all of our interactions. Super high recommend !
