Me and my family stayed here the night before my wedding, The room was lovely and clean, big and light with great views over river forth, they even gave us ajoining rooms so we could stay close (without having to ask). The staff were great nothing was too much trouble. I will def be back here. More

Located at the east end of the city centre, this hotel is convenient for bus and rail stations and a pleasant walk to many tourist attractions. Our room, a bit on the small side considering how quiet the hotel was during our stay, was clean and comfortable and had a lovely view north over the River Forth to the Fife... More

This was my third visit to the Royal Terrace Hotel. It is in an ideal position to visit all the major sights and shops in the city. Many of the rooms have a wonderful veiw towards the harbour in Leith and the other rooms look onto the pretty garden on the slopes of Calton Hill. The staff are friendly and... More

I stayed one night and had an all day business meeting in the Duke of Edinburgh conference room. The bedroom was clean and was a good size, with seating and desk areas. The bathroom was clean and modern. Room faced the front of the hotel, so was worried about possible noise from the street, but it was quiet and I... More

Nice location, not far from the center and prince street, with the advantage of been in a quite area. I came to this hotel with a group and assigned a tiny room, not bad but since my stay was for two weeks I asked for a better room even if I had to pay for an upgrade, the staff were... More

We booked this hotel for two nights to visit family. The receptionist was very efficient and pleasant, we stayed in the Royal Grouse room which was fine, the bathroom was clean with some nice toiletries. The dinner on the first night with family was very good and the barman was very pleasant and friendly. The hotel is in an ideal... More

My sister, partner and I recently stayed in the Royal Terrace Hotel over Hogmanay for 4 nights. The location was very handy to many of the Edinburgh attractions, without being too close to the Royal Mile or Princes Street to be overly noisy. The room was very clean and of an appropriate size for the three of us. The bar... More
