Radisson BLU Hotel Edinburgh

Excellent location - friendly helpful staff. Would stay again without hesitation.

The location of the hotel on the Royal Mile was good.

There were stains on the carpet in our room. The room was very dark, as there was only one small window lightening the entire room, which made it bleak. The heating was capped so that we were unable to turn the heating up when we were cold, as we stayed in November, so we had to request blankets twice, to keep us warm. The bathroom was very cold, as it had a stone floor and no heated towel rail, or any form of heating. The breakfast was terrible; the fruit was old and drying out, the scrambled eggs were turning colour, the potatoes were cold, bacon very fatty etc. When we left the lady on the desk didn't ask us if we had enjoyed our stay or wished us a pleasent journey home. It is in the details that this hotel misses the mark.

The view from our room towards Leith was good. I also liked the hotel's location in the centre of old Edinburgh. It allowed us to walk to all major tourist attractions, the bus to Leith was outside the hotel door as was a wide variety of restaurants and shops. The staff were friendly on arrival. Taxis were available on departure without having to prebook.

The shower screen was a bit tired and could have done with being replaced.

The hotel was great, very modern and in the ideal location! we would deffinetly go back.

The only thing that we didn't like was the lighting in the room was very poor but this would not put us of returning.

First time in edinburgh,and had heard a lot about the royal mile and the castle etc .Hotel was central for touring the area and getting to know the city .

We checked in at approx 8.15 am and receptionist (male ) said we were lucky and our room was ready .We proceeded to our room and found a couple in bed .returned to reception and were informed our room would be ready in approx one hour this was not the case and after 4 visists back to reception we were allocated a room at 1300 hrs .I would have accepted this at the start as I was not expecting a room until 14.00 hrs .Its the misleading advice that annoyed me .

Beautiful breakfast with a huge choice of food. Friendly staff willing to help with any questions. Great location. Best in Edinburgh..

Would have liked to have a sauna with my husband, maybe a sauna beside pool would encourage people to use the facilities, there's definately room at the Radisson in Edinburgh for this.

Very attentive and friendly staff. Comfy room.

The draped cloths on the bed - weird! The slippers but no dressing gowns.

I was upgraded to Business room which was very nice. The staff were great, the food was good and I had a fantastic sports massage by Keith!

Nothing

Rooms were big - we got a quiet room at the back

The bar was cold and not appealing - no atmosphere!

The location was excellent as well as the dining

I thought the room was not value for money if i had had to pay the full price, therefore gratefull that I only payed a discount rate

I found the hotel very relaxing and it's location was perfect.

Just greatly situated half-way up the royal mile, ideal for major tourist sights and also for nightlife

Room had not been cleaned before our arrival (dirty bedlinen and abthroom); this was quickly sorted out by the hotel staff but gave a disappointing first impression
