Couples stay

A lovely few days visiting the capital city. Staff really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. Fantastic room with a view all the way up the Royal Mile.
Roseann, 2-night trip

Lovely Hotel with spacious rooms. Excellent Breakfast buffet and one of the best I have had.
Richard, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Under renovation but nice

This Hilton was great. Although nowhere near as pretty as the pictures since it's undergoing renovation but that's alright. Beds were super comfortable and the room was spacious.
Nicholas, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A good hotel but way too expensive in my opinion after all fees. Room is nice but super loud outside all night long and if you like your room pretty warm you can adjust the thetmastat which really frustrated me especially at $500 a night. Beyond all that it’s a good location and certainly not my worst experience but this should not have cost this much.

Great location

Lovely hotel with friendly staff in a good location for the sights and shopping. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. The lifts were a bit slow, but this seems to be the case for all Hiltons globally!

2 issue (room 408): - worn/scuffed headboards - inadequate bath curtain - not able to fully draw it so the floor did get wet

Short family break

Hotel is in the perfect location for sightseeing and shopping. Very close to train station. Rooms clean and spacious. Breakfast good quality. Only downside, one lift was out of order and took a while to get one.
Stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

To his hotel is centrally located to all many attractions in Edinburgh
Jeffrey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The menus for the restsurant and room service should be available in the rooms or online. Otherwise, very nice. Also, they should male it clear that on any given floor, there are steps, like 8 down and then 8 back up. One of us struggles with stairs.
George, 1-night trip
