Top Royal Yacht Britannia Hotel Reviews

Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located. The hotel exceeded my expectations, especially during Fringe!"

Malmaison Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"Don't normally sleep well in hotels but bed and pillows so comfortable I slept all night. Loved the nice coffee bags instead of instant. Room had everything I needed. Hotel in grest location with good transport links"

4 Friends House

10/10 Excellent

"The room was super clean with many amenities and decorated nicely. Staff ( Eric ) was very friendly and guided us through the room with lots of great energy and positive vibes. Offered breakfast for free. Location was great, 3 mins to bus station and you can go to the centre directly by that bus in 20 minutes. Definitely recommend it."

Virgin Hotels Edinburgh

8/10 Good

"The bathroom is very good, great design, everything has been thought of, but the sleeping area wasn’t great, it was so small, most of it is taken up by the huge bed frame and clunky faux marble table. We had a really long walk to our room with no lifts There was a wedding on Saturday and our room was literally next to the party! Roof top terrace is literally a terrace, you have to buy your very expensive drink from the bar and carry it yourself up to the roof terrace. Breakfast needs more variety Staff were very attentive and helpful and the location is fantastic. However it’s not worth the amount we spent per night"
