Piper, United States of America

A wonderfully historic building with real atmosphere. It still feels more like a club than a hotel and has a very friendly, but smart, feel. The food was exceptional and the room, while not huge, was extremely comfortable and spotlessly clean. The location is very convenient, and the staff enormously helpful.

Roland, United Kingdom

Couldn't fault it. Fab friendly hotel in a good location with a very tasty breakfast.

Elaine, United Kingdom

Very helpful staff despite dreadful weather. Restaurant had to be closed one night due to the snow, so we were all offered free soup and sandwiches

The Royal Scots Club features grand country-house charm, a cozy club atmosphere and free Wi-Fi in central Edinburgh. In the peaceful New Town district, there is a hotel elevator with access to all floors.

The Royal Scots Club has individually designed, traditional rooms with toiletries and plenty of facilities, and some have views of the rooftops to Fife.

The Club has a quiet yet friendly atmosphere, a bar and a smart dining room overlooking Queen Street Gardens. Local restaurants and bars are a 5-minute walk away.

The Scottish National Portrait Gallery and National Gallery of Modern Art are both just a 10-minute walk away. Shops at the St. James Centre are half a mile away.

This is our guests' favorite part of Edinburgh, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.3 for a two-person trip.

This property is also rated for the best value in Edinburgh! Guests are getting more for their money when compared to other properties in this city.

Room was a bit dirty, the desk top was dusty with stale crumbs on it. Bed was quite uncomfortable but that really was a personal preference. Bathroom in need of attention, loose tiles, immovable shower head and the toiletries provided were difficult to use.
Location was brilliant. Staff were all friendly and helpful
