I was expecting more from The Point as the hotel looked quite modern from the photographs. I was disappointed as soon as I stepped out of the lift. The corridor smelt damp and musty. The carpet was all worn and tatty and not laid properly. Our room was clean enough but again a bit tired and dated. We were directly... More

Stayed here a couple of nights and although the room was clean it was very basic . This hotel has seen better days. A stale smell coming from corridors which are badly in need of redecoration. The place seems to resemble dormitories, not nice at all. Staff are friendly enough though, premises needs a facelift.

Friendly staff, extremely clean rooms and an out of this world breakfast. A plus was that we had to check out by 12 and not the usual 10 o'clock, which meant that we had more time to explore Edinburgh. The only issue is that there is no immediate parking at the hotel and dropping of your bags.

Stayed at the Point during an overnight visit to Edinburgh to catch a theatre performance. very pleasant staff who were helpful and obliging. Room very spacious and although basic was clean and bright ( bath towels big enough for my large body !!!! ). Breakfast excellent with wide choice. recommend highly for it's good location , reasonable pricing and pleasant... More

I was mildly disappointed with this hotel as despite the excellent location the standards were not what I expected. The directions to find the hotel were not up to date, however the amount of work on the new tram lines in Edinburgh are sufficient to make this excusable. There was no parking facility and the 'arrangement' with the nearby car... More

I stayed in a castle view room at The Point on May 12. The hotel staff were very adamant about the check-in time--I had just arrived on an overnight flight from the US. I left my bags to go out for 2 hrs til I could check-in. Had a bite of early dinner and then slept for 12 hours. Be... More

A good hotel with great views of the castle but in need of a bit of work to get rid of the damp patches in the bedroom and improve the bathroom - especially the shower.

I have stayed here on a few occasions and will be back again. Ok, the rooms are past thier best before dates but this is reflected in the price, and may be the website pics show it a bit flashier than reality. That said it is great value, the service is exceptional, I've always been impressed by the staff -... More

In four weeks traveling in the UK staying at The Point in Edinburgh was the worst of all of our tourism experiences. Reception was good - great, I thought, this should be good. Then we got to our room. Room 425. Wow - a low point in expectation versus delivery anywhere in our world travels. We have basic expectations -... More
