(1) The single room is big, neat and comfortable (2) Located on Princes Street, so convenient to go anywhere esp the Royal Mile on High Street, just take 5 mins to walk.

(1) Open 3-4 doors before entering the room (2) Lots of stairs and inconvenient to take my luggage (3) The traditional Scottish breakfast without black pudding

The hotel's receptionists are nice and polite. The room I booked is a single room which is big, neat and comfortable. The location of the hotel is good and convenient to go anywhere you like. However, the hotel is too old, needs to open doors to door after leaving the lift and before reaching your room. Sometimes lots of stairs

Royal British Hotel, Edinburgh: never again! Guest Rating: 5.7

A potentially fantastic location but this old building is showing its age. It needs some major major refurbishment not only for appearance but also for client comfort.

Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Cross the road to pick up the city tour buses from Waverly Bridge - well worth the money!
