The Hotel's location was excellent. We went to Edinburgh for Hogmanay so getting to/from the celebrations was very easy. We were disappointed with the room service, for almost £50 for two main meals we expected the food to taste much better than it did. The steak and ale pie for example was exceptionally tough and over-cooked. Also, our mini bar was not filled for the duration of our stay (4 nights) which was quite annoying as we only noticed in the early hours of New Year's that we had no water to drink! For the price we paid for the hotel we expected a few little extras such as these (nice food, full mini bar etc).

Booked a standard room and requested a castle view (this was just a request!) on arrival was told there were no Castle facing rooms but to apologise they would upgrade us to a deluxe room, when we went to the room there were people in there waiting to be moved - and so back to reception where the manager could not have been more apologetic and we were offered another upgrade to an Executive Studio.... We also received complimentary wine, fruit and chocolates to apologise... No fuss was made, just very well trained staff ensuring we had the best possible stay. As for the refurbishment, I have to say we wandered round the hotel and the only sign was a marquee tunnel connecting the hotel and the Caley bar, so don't worry! Would go back in a minute...

the views over princes street and the castle are fantastic. The hotel is in the middle of renovations but has no distrurbance to the guests. The breakfast rooms are also amazing. A little bit old and raffled at the edges but thats why they are renovating of course. Fantastic breakast and great value for money.

I liked the building and the understated elegance of the hotel I felt the hotel was quite cold but to be fair we did get a cold snap...also I wondered if it was a listed building due to the fact it still had the sash windows we never used the spa area or used many facilities as we were on a short break

We had an excellent view of the castle from our room. My grandson loved the leisure facilities. Initially there was a mix up with our room and we were asked to take a seat until this was sorted out. However it was sorted and we were sent a complimentary bottle of wine and a letter of apology.

Almost everything bar the cost! Extortionate pricing of extra'S...and after paying a high price for a room in the first place ! So, despite the overall service and quality surroundings i would have to say it didn't represent good value for money! I mean!, £2.99 for a KitKat !!

The kindness of the staff and because it was my 40th birthday staff went out of the way to make it memorable. They gave us a great room looking up to Edinburgh castle and the facilities were superb. Staff left wine and chocolates and a birthday card this was much appreciated. Food at breakfast time was excellent.

My partner and I had booked are room several weeks before are arrival due to us visiting from Australia however are welcoming was very poor and pretty dismissive' the original room we where given was isolated on level e down in the corner of the hotel not only was it very isolated it was dirty, tiny a very orkward room. Not the usual Hilton standards we are familliar with and like. I did go straight to the reception to request a change of room a clean room' we where re-roomed at number 317 which was better but non the less a very tiring arrival for us after such a long flight. The bottom line is I do not think we would stay there again and certainley since are stay I have only told family and friends negitive comments. Also it may have been quite simple booking are room online however we do not know what are room looks like or where it is located..

Only public access to gym was via a lift which was out of order, so had to report to reception for an accompanied route march through the normally non public areas of the hotel. Apparently its been like for two weeks !

The staff were friendly, very helpful and welcoming. The rooms were well appointed and clean with a comfy bed and good curtains to block out the light. The breakfast was of a high quality with plenty of choice. On site carparking was very convenient and the hotels location was good for the city centre. Accessibility to the hotel due to the one way system but mostly due to the ongoing roadworks for the tram system on Princess street was a nightmare. A quick note from the hotel to people at the point of booking would have been of enormous help. The bar prices were definately on the high side.
