In fact got myself a bag of their coffee blend before I left. - Quite Clean with high quality soaps and shampoo.
Cons: - The housekeeping person walked into our room while we were in the room thinking that we had checked out. This might have been an honest mistake as we were originally suppose to check-out that day but had ended up extending our stay by one more night. - The TV is in the living room. So if you like to watch TV from your bed, you maybe disappointed. - There was no A/C, only a fan. The rooms got a bit warm at night. As we were visiting in September, the weather was quite cold outside. So we left the windows open to cool the room down. However, due to the presence of nightclubs adjacent to the property, it got very noisy at night.

Cons: Temperature in room (306) always seemed on the cool side and didn't improve when air-con turned off. Tricky to locate light switch on bedside lamp during early hours of morning. I found it easier to get out of bed and use main light switch. Smoke alarm on ceiling emitting red light hard to ignore whilst trying to get to sleep as directly in my line of vision. Eating breakfast while sitting on low chairs and using low tables is not for everyone.

8.3 Excellent
Pros: Breakfast was good, A La Carte and not buffet and served until midday on a Sunday which was excellent. Hair straighteners in the bedroom - first time I have seen this in a hotel bedroom.
Cons: We stayed during the Fringe. The hotel bar and restaurant were very, very busy. The temporary outdoor restaurant was always full and under staffed. Service was chaotic. Staff seemed overwhelmed. Had to ask twice for a menu, dirty glasses left by previous customer were not removed, they got both our drinks and food order wrong. Long wait at the hotel bar for evening drinks and dirty glasses were not cleared. Bar was so busy (and no effort was made whilst we were there to remove the person lying flat out on the floor) we took our drinks to our room No private area for hotel guests. We probably stayed on one of their busiest nights of the year and hopefully service and staffing better at other times. But more attention should be paid to the expectations of hotel guests when hotel know their F&B outlets are going to be so busy. Cocktails were lovely but the measures ridiculously small.

Cons: No A/c. We were told that they don’t advertise air conditioning. None of the three superior rooms forced on to us, didn’t have it either. Glad that an en-suite bathroom was there. Plus the bed was remarkably small. A movement here and there and one would be on the floor.

Cons: The lift always seemed to take a long time to arrive and usually I would just walk down but I had a sore ankle and struggled on the stairs.

Pros: fantastic location and very friendly staff 24/7
Cons: our room was very hot and we were not convinced the air con was working. We had to have the small fan on all the time

Cons: Room cleaning - laminate floor and carpets not cleaned during our 4 night stay despite asking at reception on first day. We moved the settee and the debris under it was there on day one and still there when we left. Also had to keep asking for replacement toiletries and coffee etc. The other areas were spotlessly clean e.g bathroom.

10.0 Excellent
Pros: Absolutely brilliant property and signature Hilton service. Perfect location right at the Royal Mile
Cons: Two things 1. The parking is actually in Edinburgh Waverley Train Station which is a bit of a walk if you have heavy luggage. This should have been clearly mentioned. Also, the hotel validation of the overnight parking took off just 3 GBP of the total parking fee. Could have been better. 2. The lounge staff weren’t exactly cheerful around 10:30 PM. I can understand it’s late but it costs nothing to wear a smile while handing over the drink the customer paid for. A bit weird point since the reception and restaurant staff were amazing, as I would expect from Hilton.

Cons: I think for international guests who fly in overnight an option for early checkin would be great even if it cost additional. We wanted to freshen up and had to use a restroom in the restaurant in the hotel which was not a great option.

7.5 Good
Pros: The bed was very comfy
Cons: For the money we paid to stay here I expected a bit more, it was basic nothing special about the room, we have stayed in a premier in and the room we stayed in was just like one of theirs, the shower had lots of mould all around the bottom where it’s sealed and all up the wall, and at least two of the floor tiles where loose they moved when you stood on them and you could see one of them was lifted before you even stood on it, definitely needs fixing. It’s a good idea to bring all your own body wash and things like that you get tiny bottles of shampoo etc and it really is only enough for two showers, no slippers or dressing gowns, you should have slippers at least as the bathroom is tiled and cold on your feet

Although we left around 13.15 (after the normal check-out time) we were still charged the full rate, even though the Hotel could have possible let the room again, with Edinburgh being very busy due to the Fringe Festival. Disappointing as the room rate including breakfast was £250 per night.

Pros:
Cons: This was our worst hotel experience ever. The hotel has been shown on the website as being a five star accommodation. The price (1.419 GBP for 5 nights) seemed therefore good and had to be payed in advance. Usually not a problem - we only had good experiences with booking.com and their partner hotels in the past. However, the room that we were given upon arrival was unacceptable: first floor window facing the backyard with a bar, noisy, dark, worn out furniture and bath room fittings, wall paper coming from the wall, dirty, torn curtains, WiFi not working properly - an unacceptable accomodation! There is no reception but there was also nobody available by phone in the five hours after our arrival when we tried to find an alternative. As we were not willing to stay in that dark and dirty room, we decided to leave after five hours waiting for a reply from the hotel. We hope that booking.com helps us to fight such unacceptable conditions and supports us in getting our money back.
5.4 Okay
Pros: Great location!
Cons: Our room was up four flights of stairs of a circular staircase which difficult with luggage so pack light! This is really an apartment with no staff on premises. Our room was hot and only had one windows so while it was comfortable outside, it was hot inside. The pillows were terrible and we asked for an extra pillow and a fan and were denied. BUYER BEWARE
10.0 Excellent
Pros: The place is in the middle of everything, you can walk around the city or go to Edinburgh castle
Cons: We stay at 4th fl with 29” and 26” of the luggage, if anyone has a big luggage you need to prepare yourself to carry the luggage to 4th fl.
4.8 Okay
Pros: If you like being in the middle of the tourist trap it is perfect.
Cons: They are not up front about several things. First there is no one at the place to handle problems. No desk, no phone number. Just email. Second, the only way to get in is by a terrible spiral stone staircase, so it is very hard to get large suitcases up. Third, when I made the reservation they immediately charged me and sent an email that I would be on the fourth floor. I made the reservation months in advance and I asked them to move me to a lower floor. They said they couldn't, but if they could it would cost 10 euros. Very hard to deal with. They also do not provide maid service unless you pay another 17 euros per day! Also no place to leave your luggage because its not a hotel. Finally, I have some serious concerns about the integrity of the apartments. The floors slope and there is serious signs of cracking and sag. At these prices, you are far better booking elsewhere!
4.6 Okay
Pros: The bed
Cons: No storage for ANYTHING No fridge' only a wine cooler that wouldn't go below 20 degrees! Pots under the sink which had a leak so all damp.
3.3 Mediocre
Pros: We liked little about this property. The location was good in general but inconvenient for us considering we were not there for the fringe festival.
Cons: The owners were unresponsive. The property has many health and safety issues including a broken glass window. The instructions say there are stairs and no lift but they don’t mention the terribly steep and narrow old stone staircase with only a rope to hold onto and we were on the fourth floor! The apartment we had was tiny - one small bedroom just big enough for a bed, and a tiny sitting room with one basic futon sofa for seating. Our reservation included a bed for my kids which turned out to be the futon sofa in the sitting room which was unmade when we arrived. There was a sheet provided that the owners should be ashamed by. The ONE sheet provided was as thin as can be and totally worn out with hair on it. The duvet had no cover and had hair on it as well. There was no protector to use under it so essentially my kids slept on a hard and filthy futon. The bathroom is tiny and the shower was decayed where it meets the bottom so the water flowed out while showering. Speaking of showering, there were only a couple hard thin towels supplied. The one good thing about this property is the Wi-fi. There were several codes displayed on the wall and once we found the right one, the signal was strong. I have pictures of the broken window, the sheet, duvet, and staircase and shower will post them here.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Location only
Cons: Poor linen on the bed. Pillows awful and only 2 flat and hard ones. Only 1 towel for 2 people. No tea towels for drying the dishes. Mould in the shower. Dirty ironing cover
This apartment located in the heart of the Old Town can accommodate a maximum of 6 persons. There are two bedrooms; 1 king size double en suite with TV, one twin, Double sofa bed in living room, 2nd bathroom. Bedrooms are peaceful and quiet at night. Open plan kitchen/dining/living room with 3 windows looking directly onto Royal Mile/Lawnmarket. All windows in the property are double glazed. Bathrooms have under floor heating. There is gas central heating. The property retains great period features; old stone fireplaces, exposed ancient stone walls; and yet provides all modern conveniences and striking decoration. Situated in the historic Old Town of Edinburgh, this is the best place to stay in the city. The Old Town is a World Heritage site. Steeped in history, packed with museums, visitor attractions, specialty shops, restaurants and pubs. Edinburgh castle is 1 minute walk from your front door. This area of the city has a real buzz and is a joy to explore. This apartment is however in a peaceful location late at night with no nightclubs or noisy pubs. This a great place to stay anytime but a prime location during the Edinburgh Festival/Fringe or at New Year.
The 4-star Novotel Edinburgh Centre hotel is located in the heart of the Scottish capital. After a day exploring Edinburgh, recuperate in our heated pool & spa, and join us for cocktails and craft beers and contemporary cuisine in the Tap Kitchen & Bar. And when you're ready to relax, discover the meaning of true comfort in our newly upgraded rooms.

Cons: Breakfast was a strange thing. Some of the staff were nice, some looked like they were fed up with the guests (which they probably were). The worst thing was that from 10-15 min before breakfast was over they wouldn't restock anything. So you could come for breakfast at 10.20 and not find any more fruit salad, bread, or fried eggs. Every morning there was a surplus of raisin rolls but never enough croissants - if people eat more croissants, why not offer 2 baskets of croissants and only one of raisin rolls, instead of consistently doing the opposite?

Pros: The fun, funky vibe and central location were what attracted me to this hotel initially. However, there is a pub on the ground floor and our room was on the first floor directly over the bar where live music was played well into the night. When I requested a room change, they were fully booked but said I could change rooms the following day.
Unfortunately, we weren't informed of the room change procedure and the room promised to us on the second night was given to someone else. Very disappointing.
The hotel staff should be better trained to fully inform guests of room change policy. Also, guests should be warned at check-in that their room is over a pub that plays live music on Friday nights and offer them ear plugs in advance before they realize they can't sleep.
The management did offer a gesture of compensation but really, had I been informed and been offered ear plugs on arrival, I would have actually enjoyed my stay.
Other comments on the room: the sheets were clean and the bathroom also seemed clean but there were tons of dirty marks on the walls and dirty windowsills, which is not nice to see at hotel at this price point.

Cons: Unfortunately, the elevator wasn’t working when we arrived! We are older women, all over 65, and again, Paulina and a helper, brought all our luggage up to our rooms on the fifth floor! They had workers trying their best to fix it. It was finally in working order by the following morning. One other thing we would have liked, was to be able to open our windows for fresh air.

Pros:

6.7 Good
Pros:
Cons: free wi-fi not available
5.4 Okay
Pros: Clean and good location.
Cons: The room was ridiculously small. We didn't have huge expectations, but considering that we had paid over 100£ per night, we expected to at least have enough space to be able to open our suitcases at the same time and to be able to get dressed at the same time in the morning. Neither of those things were possible and we had to get dressed in turns, as there was no space to move. The room had no window and felt claustrophobic. You have to pay 5£ to watch the telly and 10£ to use the wifi! On top of this, we didn't have hot water.
5.8 Okay
Pros: Location
Cons: A shoebox. Charge for Wifi/TV/ coffee/ cleaning and deposit for electric adaptor. No hangers, closet or night table. No elevator! My room was 52 stairs up-and there is another floor! My friends stayed less than one mile away in a decent place, with complementary coffee, wifi and TV for less money. I had no chance to change hotel. Charged in advance.
5.8 Okay
Pros: Clean. Comfy bed. Great location.
Cons: The walls were very thin and so you can hear the conversations of everyone in surrounding rooms. Bedrooms were tiny and additional chargers for using the tv in the room and the WiFi (even though the description on booking.com makes it sound like WiFi is available free of charge)
5.8 Okay
Pros: Location was good. View was great.
Cons: Room was so small, no lift, had to pay extra for tv and wifi. I paid over £100 for one night so not worth the money.
5.8 Okay
Pros:
Cons: The room was insanely small as well as the bathroom, there was no bathroom at the reception
7.5 Good
