The location of the hotel could not be faulted also the live music in the bar. This is not a Hotel, it is a pub with rooms. The standard of the rooms is shocking. Being a Scot I was embaressed that this was the standard of rooms that we are touting to the tourists that flock to Edinburgh. Especially considering the location!. I have stayed in better hostals. A big investment in this place would surely pay off in the long run. |

We left after one night. Only the location was good. Yes lots. The web site said nothing about the 79 stairs to our room or lack of lift. (My husband has had a stroke.) There was no soap in the room, the fridge was very noisy, the curtains were badly ripped and the room was very dusty. I didn't look at the reviews before I booked, a big mistake I won't make again! |

The uniqueness of the rooms and property, location in the centre of Edinburgh, near to many shops and restaurants, and a nice pub downstairs. Room was quite nice but no curtains on the window. |

The location on the Royal Mile was excellent. We stayed in the John Logie Baird Suite and although i had booked a double room this transpired to be 2 singles pushed together which made sleeping quite uncomfortable. The overall cleanliness of the room was pretty poor and the bathroom was tiny with the smallest shower iv ever had the misfortune to use,There was a small astronomically expensive minibar with a through the door water dispenser when i attempted to fill this imagine my horror when i removed the top to discover mildew in the bottom of the container, this incident alone was enough to dissuade my partner and i to skip breakfast and eat it elsewhere.We only stayed overnight so basically put up with the less than perfect condition of the room. |

Excellent location in the centre of Edinburg, this hotel (and its related downstais bar) looks very nice with its historical references: photos in website are true!! A very warm welcome and always respectful of the clients' needs. Good the daily cleaning activity. Great great great scottish breakfast!!! Just the stairs are hard to climb with an heavy luggage or when you had drunk too much. |

We liked the Bank Hotel's location right on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh and its creative decor, with each room decorated in honor of a famous Scotsman. |

The establishment was "tired" and little attention has been paid to the deteriorating decor. The shower cubicles were extremely small. Dust had collected in the bottoms of the cupboards and was never cleaned during my stay. There are a number of other criticisms which further reflect the poor standard of the accomodation. |

Its location at the centre of town - and access to transport and attractions within easy reach. Entrance through the bar and having to fight your way past bar clientele in order to gain access to the hotel room. - cleanliness of the room was poor, the net curtains were disgustingly dirty, toilet seat broken and could have caused an injury, windows filthy - decor very dark and tired |

I thought the hotel was in the ideal location, but it is not be suitable for the older generation as it has no lift. Had I known that I would not have booked it? |

The hotel was wonderful. Our room was large, very comfortable. We had 1 flight of steps up over the pub but it was quite and comfortable, no matter what time it was. The staff was very helpful and very flexable. They had a 24hr awake staff so we could eat very early (before breakfast time), tea, coffee, cereal, fruit etc. (not hot food) and still make our plane. It was very convenient to everything! |

Location on the Royal Mile is excellent. The full scottish breakfast was really good. The Bank is also a pub open until 1pm but is open to residents 24 hours. You do get a lot of noise from the revellers until the early hours, however, they do have a second window inside which did cut down on a lot of the outside noise. There is no lift in the hotel. |

The hotel is very well located for the centre of Edinburgh which means you can walk everywhere from its front steps. The hotel staff were helpful and very friendly. The breakfast was served with good coffee and a smile! The only minus point was the long stairway one had to climb in order to reach the rooms. |

Exterior of the hotel 1. the bed's spring is broken and felt like decades old, 2. bed is not clean, caused my skin to feel itchy all night, could not sleep that night, 3. the next day, found out that both of my hands and my feet were bitten by lice, 4. WARNING: stay away from this hotel. Next time, I'd rather pay a bit more and stay at the Radisson next door. |

Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Room was well-appointed and comfortable. Delicious breakfast included in the price of the room. Location was perfect for getting a quick (two-day) impression of the old city of Edinburgh. The noise coming up from the bar was quite loud the first night we were there, but was not a problem at all the second night. |
