We wanted a hotel close to George Street and all the major sights of Edinburgh. This was perfect because we went out, for a classy meal at Centotre on George Street, then had a relaxing evening wandering to different bars, then walked round the corner to out hotel! Great location for a classy romantic evening out! The room and hotel was spotless. The service fantastic - reception couldn't do enough for us. And the breakfast at Cafe Rouge, across the road (which was part of our deal) was brilliant. And they had a vegetarian breakfast!

Location was great for all round Edinburgh, decor was good condition, rooms were clean; requested late check out and they obliged with 12 noon! Staff polite, overall, having stayed in hundreds of hotels between us we would book again. Reception struggled to understand my request for two wine glasses; but did provide two odd ones. Left Luggage was self service, but there were to many keys were being handed out to guests to collect 'their' bags. Rooms only view was over a built up courtyard. No shampoo, but was some soap, would have been useful to know that had to bring supplies in advance shower was only okay. Didn't make breakfast as it was served over the road in a separate place and only until 10:15, lazy yes.

Large rooms. Have stayed here before (without children) and one of the reasons we decided to stay here again, with children, was that we thought we'd get plenty of room for the children to play in the room. And we did!!! Not enough hangers for towels in the bathroom. Just one small closet.

The only good thing was the location. I'm surprised it's a 4 star hotel. Receptionist was friendly, I'm surprised it's a 4 star hotel. Room was very basic - hard, thin pillows, scratchy sheet and blanket, cheap looking toiletries, no safe. Breakfast across the road felt on the cheap - watery, warm orange juice and dried up bread and pastries. I stayed here because I couldn't get into the same hotel as the rest of my family across the street so the only good thing was that I was close to them.

Great location, clean room, nice staff and comfortable. Despite the other negative reviews, I found that breakfast was just fine - although as reported the menu is rather inflexible (you have to pay for a hot drink refill) all in all it was efficient, plentiful and tasty. I got the room for a good price at the last minute. Will return. Recommended.

Very friendly, helpful staff and very easy to just arrive, get checked in and relax. Quiet room and very good for solo female travelers. Very convenient for the city and public transport options. Cafe Rouge for breakfast was lovely too. Altogether a great place to stay. Slightly noisy extractor fan in the bathroom.

The fact the room was bigger than expected and the comfort of the beds was amazing. That breakfast was served at Cafe Rouge also blew me away. Great choice!

The family room was large and comfortable. The breakfast at Cafe Rouge across the road was excellent. The hotel is very central and we had a lovely walk around visiting old haunts from my student days. The National Portrait Gallery was very good and close to the hotel. The staff were very helpful and welcomed my young children, helping with the family friendly interactive displays. The cafe was also very good value.

I was really surprised with the standard of the hotel - it had been refurbished and was very well finished. The room was comfortable and, for a single room, was a reasonable size. As a single traveller ,I am very often offered a tiny "cheap" room. I have stayed in many 4* and 5* hotels in Edinburgh, but I would definitely go back to the Frederick House Hotel. The Cafe Rouge across the road where breakfast is served offers a wide choice of very good food by friendly staff. The added bonus is the 25% reduction for patrons fo the hotel. The only small inconvenience was there wasn't a computer with printing service available for guests - I had wanted to print my boarding pass. To be fair the receptionist said if I emailed her she would print it out, but that awsn't possible for me.

Great location just off George Street in Edinburgh New Town. Good sized room. Good bed. Good TV. Bedroom doors fitted with a mechanism which made them slam noisily. Big gap under my door. People were going in and out of the other rooms in the corridor where I was. All added up to a lot of noise. Breakfast at Cafe Rouge was limited. I prefer a buffet. Service one day was good, second day was poor. There were not enough staff on the second day.

We enjoyed everything about the room The noise during the night in the front room, it was constant all night and kept a couple of us awake. The rest of the group that had the back rooms had no problems with noise and slept really well We would ask for the rooms at the back next time we come

Unlike many hotels that exaggerate many features, Frederick was exactly what it says on the tin. Though the hotel did not have dining facilities on the premises, the restaurant it subscribes to was pefectly adequate and across the street. The hotel was very well placed in the city and anyone looking for a clean, neat place without the grandeur and cost of large hotels would not be disappointed. Like all Edinburgh hotels....overpriced. However, no better or worse than anywhere else in Edinburgh and obviously the market dictates this.
