Leonardo Royal Hotel Edinburgh

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was lovely everything you need to start the day ,very well organized. I enjoyed my stay."

ibis Edinburgh Centre South Bridge - Royal Mile

6/10 Okay

"Breakfast buffet had the worst scrambled eggs I have ever tasted - tasted like they were made from powdered eggs. Asked if a fried egg was possible & told know. Otherwise the food was good. Staff were slow at dinner & had to make multiple requests for utensils & to order. Staff outside of the restaurant were excellent "

Holiday Inn Edinburgh by IHG

6/10 Okay

"This was a convenient hotel that was reasonably well appointed. Rooms were fine and quite comfortable. The challenge for us was the variable degrees of hostility of staff on desk. When we arrived on Friday 24th April night, one almost felt like one was troubling the surly staff. And I'm sorry to say, if we don't want breakfast, we don't want it. Continuing to mention it will almost make us double down. Check out was wonderful. A lovely, friendly young man helped us. He put our bags away, to pick up later. When we called back, late 26th afternoon to pick them up, the young lady was lovely. However, we witnessed others checking in & there eas clearly more surliness and hostility. It doesn't take much to be pleasant. Do better, folks. "
