A good night in Edinburgh

The Hotel is well presented and the staff are very helpful, They arranged last minute late night transport from the airport for us when our car hire company messed up and did not have a car for us. Everything ran smoothly and the experience was very enjoyable.

Great Location for central Edinburgh

Hotel is very nice, room seems to have been recently redone (bathroom was excellent) - a couple of items weren't working - one lightbulb was burnt out & TV remote wasn't working (batteries?). But the room was very nice, nothing special but spacious & clean, modern decor. Lobby is very modern, check-in individual desks were manned by very professional staff.

Not impressed

The toilet was leaking and noisy - never got the newspaper we asked for - stuck in the lift - not a 4* service but a very good location.

SAS Radisson Edinburgh Royal Mile

Great hotel - nice, spacious room with comfortable furnishings. Service was a bit haphazard. Dial 1 and they take ages to pick up, they weren't familiar with some of the offerings in the hotel 'manual' in your room so ordering food was tough. Otherwise tho, absolutely great hotel for location and accomodation - very comfortable

Fab Location

Great stay in Edinburgh - the city is buzzing with the festival - and yet inside your room was silent due to the tripple glazing - would stay again - ace location with ample parking
