10/10 Exceptional

great welcome, lively hotel / bar
Ronald, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Cute place

Really nice location if you are looking for a place to stay around Edinburgh and parking was a plus. The rooms were clean and cute, however the water in the shower was nowhere warm enough and during the first night there was a lot of noise coming from the adjacent room (every time someone opened the door next to our room it felt like they were coming into our room instead which made it difficult to sleep) although all ok the other nights
Federica, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property was lovely and clean, the room was nice and spacious, bed was lovely and comfortable. As a side note, breakfast doesn’t start until 9am, which is quite a late start for most hotels, it didn’t mention this on the Expedia booking and we didn’t see any information in the hotel or in the room regarding meal times.

Jayne, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great two night stay at the Ravelston House Hotel. Room was very comfortable with an excellent en suite. Tea and coffee provided and the included breakfast was also very good. Bar menu was good, can recommend the haddock. Easy links in and out of the city by very frequent buses which stop within a few yards of the hotel in either direction. We’d definitely stay there again.

Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really nice quiet place to stay, they don’t let you check in early but the staff was wonderful and the continental breakfast was perfect. A quick bus ride to get to the Royal Mile and lots of buses available. Highly recommend staying here.

Phyllis, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved this place! The staff were amazing, super friendly and very helpful. The room was a bit small and the bed very soft but otherwise everything was perfect. Great location and very easy to just hop on a bus at the front door, to downtown Edinburgh. An excellent place that met all of our needs.
Cathy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very comfortable room. Everyone on staff was friendly and helpful. Special thanks to our waitress who spent a great deal of time helping us understand how and where to catch the buses we wanted.
Michael, 2-night trip

All members of staff friendly, especially at breakfast as i am gluton free & our sever was helpful about the food & the area, all good would recommend.
Julie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Bad luck continuing???

We checked in then weather warning were sent to our phones then we were advised shopping centres around were closing so we made the decision to go home, so although the room looked nice and the bathroom very nice, we didn’t actually stay at the hotel. We had food in the restaurant before we left and it was nice enough
Lesley, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were in room 7 it was freezing. No heating came on at all.
Frances, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good one night stay

Nice room and bathroom, well decorated, well heated. The only real let-down was the mattress was well past it's best and very unsupportive. Breakfast was great, and overall I was happy.
