Value for money
The hotel staff were fantastic,we were up graded to a suite and a complimentary bottle of wine was also supplied as it was for a special occasion!... The room itself could do with a little up grading, but the food and the staff made up for this! Would I recommend this hotel? ......yes

A Big Thank You
A big thank you to all staff for making our recent stay so memorable.We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and could not find fault with anything. Room on 6th floor large and clean and complimentary drinks and treats in library an added bonus. Breakfast and evening meals lovely. Sorry to leave but will be back.

Good location and large rooms
I recently led a group of forty Americans from Columbus, GA--80% of whom are 60 and older--on a tour of England, Scotland and Ireland. We arrived in Edinburgh on Saturday, April 27 and stayed for three nights before taking the ferry from Cairnryan to Belfast on April 30. The staff was incredibly helpful--especially Jakob--and the rooms were large and pleasant. The duvet cover on one of the beds in our room was badly stained, and it was removed and replaced immediately after I notified the front desk. We were given a complementary bottle of wine and some Scottish "tablets" by way of an apology. The food in the hotel was very good as was the restaurant staff. There were two disappointments for us: coffee and teas were not included in our group dinners (they were at every other hotel, including the Macdonald Windsor, a sister hotel) and there was no free WiFi in rooms, although we had expected there would be. On a blessedly positive note, I experienced a fall in St. Andrew's and needed a wheelchair to get around, so the hotel happily provided one for me to use. They were very solicitous of my welfare! If we are in Edinburgh again, we will likely stay here.
