York House Hotel

We were delighted with this hotel! The room was spacious and clean, with a very comfortable bed, the breakfasts were tasty and plentiful, the hotel staff were helpful and friendly and the hotel was situated within a 5-minute walk to Princess Street - an ideal location for both shopping and sight seeing.

Perhaps the bathroom could benefit from a small shelf, as there was not much room for toiletries. Also the television only seemed to get BBC 1, but this was a minor thing, as we did not come to Edinburgh to watch T.V.!

its location,cleanliness,excellent value for money!!

the decor is a bit stark.the rooms are fine,but rest of the hotel can do wth a 'warmer' interior design.nothing drastic,perhaps just repaint the walls with soft pastel colours.the abundance of white walls makes it seem to clinical,almost like a hospital.

the cleanliness of the place and the pleasant staff

not enough space at breakfast had to eat in corridor as it was full and the tv set was no good

Excellant location for shops and comedy club, good local pub nearby and good value for money.

no mushrooms for breakfast! grrr! - i think i would have turned the thermostat up if i could find it, a bit chilly in one room.

Clean room with comfortable bed, close to railway station and shops. Good cooked breakfast.

its convenience to the town and shops, and the breakfast was varied and well cooked

i did not like having to climb nine flights of stairs with a heavy suitcase and as there is no lift this hotel is not suitable for disabled people I was told at reception that the website states no lift but i did not see this.

Location was great. The building has character. Rooms comfortable. Staff pleasant and helpful.

Fresh towels daily would be nice when spending a period of time in the hotel, clean cups in room for tea/coffee daily. Breakfast was good but what about a little creativity - homemade breakfast scones/breads?

Friendly and helpfull staff, clean B & B establishment, comfortable bed, there was a tea/coffee tray with kettle and pack of biscuits which was very welcome in the room, good scottish breakfast. I would stay again if I wanted a low price B&B in the city centre.

No lifts, T.V. had very poor reception, unable to watch it due to 'snow' or lost signal, radio was 'through SKY so no radio, no chair in the room,a sign on the wall to tell where the cord for the mains power for the 'shared 'shower would have been helpful. You have to 'click' on all the facility's shown for your room to see if you may or may not have them.

Good location, great breakfast

Noise from the street occasionally too loud. WLAN didn't work (didn't get IP address even though the correct network was found)

The proximity of the city centre.

I was not very happy with the loose shower head and soap tray and the lack of space to put cleaning materials on in the shower. The total lack of towel rails or hooks within arms reach from the shower.

I liked the central location near to theatres, restaurants, shopping malls. Enjoyed the spacious rooms and the freshly cooked breakfast in the morning. Staff are friendly and helpful and we've booked to go back.

This hotel is not a hotel but a B&B and this should be clearly stated. The TVs need updating( we had to keep switching ours off and on to maintain a picture) There should be a sign outside to indicate where you are and the front door should be open as they have an inner door that could be kept shut if neccessary.

Location

Staff were rude, breakfast appalling for vegetarians and TV did not work

The location was just a few minutes from the centre of Edinburgh

Water presssure for the showers was not very good.
