      "Couldn't really ask for more" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 23, 2013

      This was a great stay. The room was huge and comfortable with a nice canopy bed, plenty of storage, and a nice TV. View was amazing as we could see the ocean from our 3rd floor room. The bathroom was very large with a giant tub that easily fit 2. The shower was lovely and a nice size, though the water pressure could of been a bit better. The location of this hotel was perfect. We came in at Edinburgh Waverly and several buses (5, 44, 113, 24X) all stop RIGHT in front of the hotel. There is an ASDA (walmart super store) with a wonderful breakfast cafe about 10 minutes walk. Porto Bella is about 15 minutes away which is a gorgeous little beach front area with an amazing cafe in the swim center that makes homemade food. The bus will get you into Edinburgh in about 30-45 minutes. Edinburgh castle, Arthur's seat, the Parliament, etc is all there. One of the best hotels I have stayed in at a great price. The Bistro, Bar and Restaurant downstairs were good but very expensive.

    We had two adults and two children in a Superior Room. The hotel setup a very sturdy sofa bed next to a queen size bed and we all slept comfortably... there, although it was somewhat tight for space. The hotel's pool/sauna/steam room area is in nice shape and the kids really enjoyed it. The breakfast buffet, while not included in the room rate, is very well stocked. The hotel's location is very good and the staff are helpful. by a Hotels.com guest on 01/10/13

    Overall, exactly what you would expect from a Novotel. Adequate, clean room and service was good. The location is within easy walking distance of the Royal Mile. Biggest downside is that the hotel advertises on site parking but only has ten spaces. Once these are filled, guests must rely on commercial parking a few blocks away and pay much higher r […] ates.

    The location is great. It's close to the city center and you can walk to the castle, royal mile run, and several museums from this hotel. The only thing I don't like is the roller bed in the family rooms. It's not comfortable at all.

    We only had one night in Edinburgh, arriving and leaving by train. The hotel was close to the station and all of the city-center sights. We had three people, which can be tricky in European hotels, but the room worked great, and our daughter enjoyed the pool. This hotel was much like what Americans are used to, so I would recommend it especially to […] those that prefer an American-style hotel. We were there during what seemed to be some University (it's just across the street) hazing - not dangerous, but raucous - so one might use caution if traveling with children. Read more

    Our only problem was that we complained about mildew in the shower and our room was changed so that the mildew could be removed with some cleaner that gave off strong odors. Our thoughts were "Why didn't the maid notice this and deal with it before we were put into this room.

    Great location to many sites in Edinburgh. Overall hotel was nice, but hand-faucet leaked on floor and some of the restaurant staff seemed a little over=worked and were a bit grumpy. But the front desk were very helpful whenever we turned to them.

    Nice hotel within an easy walk of the Royal Mile. We stayed for 3 nights and never used a bus or any public transportation. Edinburgh is so small that you can walk everywhere and this hotel is nicely centrally located. Free wifi in the lobby and small part of the bar/lounge.

    We were well served at the Novotel. It was a great location close to the Royal Mile. The room was clean and just what we needed, although a little on the small side with an extra person and a sleep-away bed out. The staff was not service-oriented but most everything went smoothly. The hotel had a small workout room with exercise machines, which we used. […] One of our party is allergic to scents and the room was scent free--which was excellent. The in-room self-service tea makings were great. The hotel caters to large buses full of tour groups, it seemed. Read more

    We stayed here for nine nights, so we got to see the hotel in detail. I expect some bumps along the way, but I also expect the problems to be corrected. Novotel needs a basic class in TQM. The front desk stall is very helpful, well trained and pleasant. The primary problems were with the room. The room is small for a long stay, with very limited closet […] and storage space for two people, but not that unusual for European hotels. There were several technical problems, safe froze shut, the phone did not work. They did get the safe opened so we could retreive our items, but these problems remained unresolved to the end of our stay. Another example was the breakfest list. Every morning they had to look at a priint out of names/room numbers before we were seeted. There was no order to the list, so the staff spent some time looking through the list for our room. It was a bit amusing at first but after nine days it was getting old. I nice hotel, and lovely destination, but I can't recommend it for a long stay. Read more

    The hotel was clean, the the front desk was very helpful. I ordered room service and the employee asked as though he was expecting a tip on top of the 3% I already paid to have the food delivered. I'm sure the 3% charge was going to the hotel. Regardless, I don't think a tip should be expected. There was also not enough towels in the room for my family. The […] room was nice but awful small. The sofa was extremely hard, even for a sleeper.

    When we had mastered the street map, we realised that it was a good location - away from the noise of the town centre, but 10 - 15 mins walk from most locations of interest. One of the town tour buses stopped nearby. Hotel bed was very comfortable, but separate toilet difficult to locate in the dark if you needed to get up in the night. Overall a very […] satisfactory experience. Read more

    Clean, Spacious, rooms. Toilet separate from shower/ wash-hand basin/ bath area (strange but ok!). Good service and rooms cleaned daily. Pleasant staff. Pool facilities include a small sauna and steamroom.

The hotel is a short walk from the grassmarket area and the castle. Overall very satisfied with the hotel. Read more

    We stayed for a weekend as there were some good rates available in January. The hotel is very well located near to the Old Town, two minutes walk from the Grassmarket but far enough away to be quiet at night time. We used the leisure facilities twice, they were unsupervised but were in good condition, small pool, hot tub, steam room and sauna were all […] available and not at all overcrowded. Our room looked a little tired and could do with a makeover, but that was the only complaint I would have about the whole weekend. We didn't venture into the bar and restaurant (but I'd recommend Darios nearby on Lothian Road for good, no nonsense Italian food!). Overall we got a good weekend deal for the price and if the same was on offer in future I would have no hesitation in staying again. Read more

    This hotel is in a great location. 10 mins walk from the end of Princes Street, 10 mins walk from the Royal Mile and on the main bus route from the airport. It was also very quiet at night, 5 minutes from an Odeon cinema, and had lots of bars, restaurants, and a sainsburys round the corner. It is very clean and the room was spacious and very light and […] airy. The staff were helpful and friendly and drinks in the bar were very good if a little pricey. We didn't try out the swimming pool but it certainly looked clean. No complaints apart from the pillows being very very uncomfortable.
