Lock in a great price for Frederick House Hotel – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

Clean, friendly staff, great location, very central. Not cheap but ok considering I was a walk in, £70. Room was spacious but things got a little noisy around 2am as the bars turned out over the road.

John, United Kingdom

Great location, rooms were comfortable and was good value for what I paid.

Anonymous, United Kingdom

This was my first time to Scotland. I had no idea how centrally located this hotel was! It was so easy to get a train, bus or tram. The breakfast wasn't in the hotel but across the street in a restaurant. Very nice cheerful place to start the day. Absolutely fell in love with this city.

Virginia, United States of America

Loved the cozy room, friendly staff, and satisfying breakfast at the partnering restaurant.

Susan, United States of America

Spacious room and bathroom, great location (can walk to all the major destinations). The staff were quite nice as well.

Bon, Canada

The Frederick House Hotel is my preferred place to stay in Edinburgh. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. The staff are extremely helpful and always go the extra mile. It is in a great location with access to shops and the Royal Mile.

Sean, United States of America

Great location. Clean rooms with tall ceilings. Helpful staff.

Roger, United States of America

The locations was perfect. The size of the room was good enough and the staff were very friendly.

The option to borrow a converter was a life saver. I packed the wrong one, so was able to borrow one for my first night until I could purchase one.

Unfortunately, the elevator was not working when we arrived so we need to bring our luggages all the way up to fourth floor! I pitty my husband because he had to bring the heavy stuff. It was a good thing that the staff in the reception area helped us bring the stuff to the fourth floor. It was fixed after 2 days of our stay.
The hotel is situated in the heart of the city. Accessible to everything. The staff in the reception area was accomodating.

This is not a 4 star hotel. No amenities in the bathroom, nothing in the refrigerator. The bed is too small for 2 people. The lift was not working to the second floor where they put us. No one even suggested they help us up with our luggage. The room was too warm with no view.
The breakfast was good.

I was upgraded from a single to a double room, which itself was larger than expected. It is centrally located amid the high street shops and cafés of central Edinburgh, very convenient. Was a nice, relatively cheap place for a quick stay before heading out on an early flight the next morning.

There was no breakfast available onsite, although there were plenty of options close by and the bed was a little hard for my taste. The lift was quite slow and didn't feel the safest.
The location was excellent. It was a great base for seeing the city. Staff were so friendly, particularly the gentleman working at night (I didn't get his name unfortunately), always had a few words of conversation. The room was also much bigger than expected, going from the booking pictures.
