Hotel berhampiran The Church of Scotland, Edinburgh

Our assessment of our 3 night stay at the Waldorf was mixed. The hotel was very nice and as a Diamond member we were upgraded to a castle view room. The complimentary breakfast was very good and the front desk staff were generally helpful. We did have a problem one night with the light fixture leaking water from the ceiling. This may have been due to a rainstorm one night and staff brought a bucket to catch the leaking water. The biggest problem, however, occurred after checkout. At the time of checkout I was told that the hotel printer wasn’t working so they would email me my receipt. Since all 3 nights were paid for with HH points I asked if there was a zero balance and was told yes. Later that day I received the final bill and was charged over $1,000 on my credit card for all three nights. I immediately called the hotel and was told by in house reservations staff that my reservation had been cancelled when I didn’t show up. I reminded them that we had been staying with them the last 3 nights and had no problem at checkin on the scheduled day. In fact I confirmed our arrival time several hours before checkin. So they didn’t know what the problem was but would talk to the reservations manager when they were free. In the meantime I called the Hilton diamond desk and again was told that someone had cancelled my stay with points and it had been rebooked by someone as a cash stay and they were not sure what the problem was. My points had even been put back onto my account by someone. By now I am a bit irritated. I finally receive a call back from the hotel reservation manager who tells me that the Waldorf had a computer glitch on our arrival date and that all hotel reservations had been cancelled and had to be manually reentered by hotel staff. However, Hilton hotels have no way to make reservations using points so they made them as a cash payment. Thereby the $1,000 bill. Now glitches are bound to occur sometimes. However, all of this angst could have been avoided by telling me at checkin about the problem and I could have immediately rebooked the room using points while standing at the front desk. The hotel did ultimately reverse the charges and apologize. However. this shouldn’t happen at a property like the Waldorf.

Great customer service. We arrived earlier than expected and were offered a room that was already available and some welcome drinks too. Staff were very attentive and helpful and room was clean and spacious. Bed was so comfortable and it was handy having parking on-site too. Only downside was the poor water pressure in the shower but I suspect this was due to us being on the fourth floor.

I visited the W for the first time on Friday evening. From the moment we stepped through the door the experience was exquisite. We didn’t have a reservation however sitting at the bar in the upstairs lounge was wonderful. We met the lovely Sumith who educated us on everything wine related. Edson our bartender made some delicious cocktails. The experience was perfection from start to finish, I cannot wait to return!! To finish off our wonderful evening we were given access to the 12th floor, just WOW. I’ve not seen views like these in Edinburgh!!

Location is good. Walking distance to high street, Royal Miles and many attractions. Super convenient. I can also prepare breakfast in the kitchen which save some money. The private room I booked is very small but clean and no complaints with the cost. The staffs are helpful and I will definitely consider to stay in the future visit to Edinburgh.

Before check in this hotel, I was little concerned about it since there’s couple negative comment about this hotel. I believed only some room has issue but my room is perfectly fine! The water temperature is great and no other issue. The breakfast is very good, suggest you going down to the breakfast area around 7 if you want to get hot food and quiet breakfast time~ On the other hand, it’s an apartment, so you need to throw your rubbish away, and better to bring personal cleaning equipment as well. It’s a 9/10 rating, it would be great if they fix another washing machine so don’t need to wait for it.

Visiting Edinburgh Castle of Light, I decided to stay overnight. Room (15) had everything needed; a comfortable bed, hot shower, a hospitality tray and clean towels. I will definitely stay here again.

The most amazing hidden gem. Great deal for one night b&b even though it was 6 Nations rugby weekend . The room was extremely comfortable with beautifully scented locally sourced shower gels and shampoo in the immaculately presented bathroom . As for the staff …despite being extremely busy everyone we came across had a smile and helpful conversation . The receptionist even took us to the gate to guide us to the bus stop having printed off a timetable . Only 10 minutes and £2 into the city centre . £9 for taxi back so with the cost of city centre parking it’s a no brainer to use the free onsite parking . Breakfast did not disappoint either and was far from ordinary and totally delicious . Sadly there was no time to sample other meals however …I we shall be back ! Very well done .

Hotel was clean and Quiet.Reception staff friendly and helpful Easy access to city via buses. Sea food restaurants nearby. Hotels breakfast was good except scrambled egg not to my taste.(Dry) Toilet in the room no toilet brush. Bar did not have bloody Mary.Was a bit disappointing.! The hotel staff especially Madina and Lucas went beyond to help and give good advice for first time visitors. Worth trying Holiday Inbn Express Edinborough.

Marriot Edinburgh West is truly a beauty to behold,right from the surroundings, entrance, receptionist, waiting area to the elevators, and most importantly, the glass view from the room where you get to see a large view of the area,it's just like in the movies,certainly a must visit next time. The only snag is the shower,it's not really enjoyable,that should be handled please. Outside that it's a lovely hotel and a home away from home,considered a get away spot
