Perfect location in Edinburgh. Lovely spacious and comfortable rooms. Expensive, but it is central Edinburgh. The lounge and bar wasn't good, kind of feels like a train station waiting area. Bright lights, premier Inn style seats, no music... etc. Terrible food from the lounge. Reception staff lovely and helpful

This is the best spot to stay in Edinburgh. I’ve stayed on 3 separate occasions in the last 10 years. Admittedly, it’s a slightly different experience with the renovations, but the staff and service remain exceptional. Location-wise it can’t be beat. Edinburgh is a city of many hills and steps. The Hilton is in a more middle ground spot, close to everything, so at the end of the day when you’ve cl...

Yes, there’s some street noise, but that’s to be expected in a livel...

Excellent hotel; the only reason I put four stars is because the ongoing renovations do detract from the experience a bit. I have stayed here in the past and would again in the future. The freshly renovated room was fantastic and is air conditioned; something not all hotels have here. The breakfast is first rate. The elevators get jammed up during busy periods, but when the third elevators becom...
