Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
Great room, fantastic views, very large and well cooked breakfast, Receptionists were brilliant (both male and female ). Due to coronavirus the receptionist found other available restaurants for our supper. We picked one and even that was brilliant. They did everything. Cleanliness was first class.
United KingdomClose to everything. Very quiet at night so slept well
United KingdomStaff were fabulous, as always. The location is brilliant and we had no noise from outside at all, considering it's location, this is brilliant! Super comfy bed and large room. Ease of parking too.
United KingdomThe staff especially Paul on reception. He was so helpful we extended our stay from Friday till Monday.
United KingdomCheck in person was very helpful. A little disappointed there was no food (other than breakfast) in the restaurant or even room service. Room was spacious and clean.
United KingdomMy second stay in this hotel, first time was with husband, this time with daughter. It cannot be beaten for location being right on the Royal Mile and in easy walking distance to everywhere. The staff were really welcoming and helpful, happy to chat and share their local knowledge, given that Scotland has only just opened up and the hotel was empty, there was plenty chatting going on. The rooms are well maintained, large and roomy. Would definitely recommend and look forward to visiting again.
United KingdomExcellent customer service staff went above and beyond to meet our expectations
United KingdomEverything, we have been unlucky with covid cancelling things and we got married yesterday, raddison upgraded our room, brought us up ice buckets, plates, cutlery, drinks anything we needed was no hassle at all, easily the best place we have ever stayed and will be back again soon once everything is back up and open! Cant remember the receptionists name, Flynn I think (apologies if I'm wrong) but he was superb and really made our stay perfect
United KingdomI was upgraded to a suite! What's not to like. Breakfast with all social distancing protocols in place. I appreciate the 12noon checkout time especially as the alternative would be almost 2 hour wait on a cold station as trains running on my route home only cleared of cancellations after midday.
United KingdomRoom looked very nice, comfortable, once it warmed up we were very happy, reception staff were very kind and nothing was any trouble to them
