Mount Royal Hotel Edinburgh by The Unlimited Collection

6/10 Okay

"Property was in a great central location and the newly opened restaurant offered a lovely breakfast with an amazing view. The rooms were small and beds were not the most comfortable but we still had a good stay. A couple of things that we will mention to the hotel separately so they have the chance to correct them, but overall a good experience "

Moxy Edinburgh Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, very convenient for attending an event at the Highland Showground. A little busy on check-in, but staff were doing their best and had all 3 desks manned! Room was very warm, too warm for me, so I had to open the window, which was fine, but a tad noisy with the airport being opposite. I couldn’t work out if the air con was working properly or not, but I managed to get the room to a comfortable temperature for me. I didn’t use the bar or order any food so unable to comment on those. Overall a good stay, and would definitely stay here again."
