Room lovely and spacious we stayed in the executive room,facilites.were good and good location

Staff were super friendly and professional from receptive to house keeping. The food was lovely in the bar and great value for money. The pool was clean and modern

Room clean modern comfy. Gym facilities and spa very good. Very nice breakfast great standard lots of choices.

welcoming staff, great location, rooms were clean and very comfortable . we asked for an electrical extension and it was brought to the room immediately. breakfast was good and we would defiantly stay there again .

We had a twin bedroom booked as a double bedroom wasn’t available at the time but the lady in reception kindly upgraded us to a double room with free of charge. We absolutely loved the room and the overall facilities. We‘ll definitely come back to stay in Novotel sometime in the future!

Breakfast was very good. Kids loved the waffle maker.

Reception works 24/7; the pool, sauna and jacuzzi are included in the price. Very good location; you could reach many of the main attractions of Edinburg on foot. Kettle, ironing facilities, hair dryer, mini fridge, tea and coffee in a room. Big TV, nice shower.

Lovely, clean,modern hotel with great facilities and friendly staff

The reception staff were excellent, in fact any staff member I came across were polite and helpful. The staff are a credit to this hotel (Domestic staff, catering staff). The breakfast was excellent, plenty choice and satisfying. There is something to please everyone. I loved having a mini fridge it saved my chocolate from melting in a very hot room. I loved the hair dryer. The location was amazing. Accessible to all areas of Edinburgh. From walking along the meadows or heading straight in to town. I walked to morning side (dominion cinema, highly recommend) and back. Edinburgh is a tough walking city so a reasonable amount of fitness required. However, all accessible by public transport. Local buses run from stops very close to the hotel. The trams go through the centre & to the airport. The hotel would probably organise a taxi if required. I chose to walk.

Very friendly team on reception check in & out. The swimming pool time was excellent 7am-10pm. Jacuzzi & sauna available & lots of towels. Clean, really great location, nice tea & coffee facilities & the food in the bar was delicious.
