The Royal Terrace Hotel

Slightly souless but comfort & attentive staff more than compensated room 108 was excellent good value we will be back

lacks colour cold first impression in reception open fire on December day would work wonders

The room or suite was very grand and very good value for money.

Hotel was in an excellent location for city centre. Reception staff were helpful and pleasant and hotel was very comfortable and clean.

The location was fabulous and the view from our room down to Leith was fantastic. Staff were very helpful and the breakfast was nice. It was so easy to walk into Edinburgh and we did not need any transport all weekend because of this.

We thought it lacked a personnel touch, the same person did not come to our table twice at breakfast. We did find the breakfast room a bit crowded and the continental selection was not that great. Also, on the Sunday, the conservatory room at breakfast was cold. Coldness was also noticed the first night when we walked into our room and very noticeable each time we got out of the shower!! When we went to use the pool there were no wet kit bags left and the changing rooms were a little un-tidy. When our bed was made each day my boyfriends jumper was just thrown back in a heap on the bed. These are pointers not critisms!! We loved our stay but as both of us used to work in hospitality these stood out to us. But thank you for everything else!

The hotel is in a good location, entrance area and lobby are very nice. we did not eat at the restaurant but this looked very good. the pool, sauna and steam room facilities are very good, very quiet most of the time so very relaxing

we were very disappointed with our room. it was alot smaller than expected with very little room between the table and chairs and the desk - practically no room! the end of the bed was so close to the wall and the wall mounted flat screen tv that in the night i walked into the tv, briusing myself! sounds silly but almost unavoidable, especially in the dark. also the light didnt work on the desk, the filament in the hair dryer had broke so it only blew out cold air, the drains smelt when you showered and the sink didnt drain away unless you stood holding the plug up with your hands. o yes and the duvet looked old and very lumpy.

The location is quiet and very convenient. Staff were courteous and helpful.

We were first given a tiny room we could barely walk around, but on complaining were given a better room. Decor though was poorly chosen - quite recently decorated but dreary and ugly.No towel rail,no fridge/mini bar or safe, basic toiletries -not a four star feeling at all.

The hotel staff didnt tell you anything about the hotel. Like if you would like breakfast or dinner it will be served there, we have spa facilities etc and to use just do this

The hotel was nice and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was lovely

Well appointed room, Very comfortable bed.

being automatically charged for breakfast and hacving to tell reception that no breakfast was taken. Arrived early and left luggage - however the lugage was not secured by the hotel.

Our room was quite comfortable and generally quiet. We slept well.

When we arrived the staff had taken no notice of our request for a quiet room. They put us right by the lift. We were then moved into a basement room, which was okay in terms of noise, but, of course, a bit dark.

A lovely hotel in a beautiful location, just a short walk from Princes Street and Waverley railway station. Nice stylish rooms, either with a rear garden or Firth of Forth view, and friendly welcoming staff - recommended!

Its quiet and homely. with a swimming pool and gym, which is extra bonus

Pleasant, courteous, helpful staff, decent facilities at the hotel and in the room, good central location in Edinburgh.

Would have liked advance details about how to get there by car due to impact of Edinburgh's roadworks and also forewarning about the parking situation there - it was difficult to find the Omni car park due to roadworks and it could be an effort to walk between it and the hotel for some people. Daytime parking outside the hotel on the street is limited to 4 hours for £4.80. Omni multi-storey is £20 / 24 hours.
