Rick's has a great location, very central. The staff seem friendly and the room was well furnished. Be aware though: all the rooms back on to an alley which is loud at night and the sound of clanging bottles will echo through the room.The room is nicely furnished though. Be careful with payemnt though: I gave the hotel a swipe... more

Stayed for 1 night at Rick's in March. Beautiful rooms, quite small but with great beds/bedding and nice little touches like candles, cd player etc. Breakfast was brilliant, everything from traditional Scottish to fresh smoothies and huge waffles. Only downside was the fact that we couldn't get a drink from the bar at 1a.m as they were closing and had... more

We were bumped to Ricks for one night as our booking had been lost for our original hotel, Tigerlily. We ended up having to stay one night at Ricks and the next at Tigerlily. We were assured by the Tigerlily staff that Ricks is "the next best thing" to their hotel, but lets be honest, it's the same group and... more

We couldn't believe our luck to get a room in a hotel in central Edinburgh on the weekend Scotland played England at Murrayfield in the Calcutta Cup...and won!! This little gem of a hotel has 17 Boutique-style rooms above Ricks bar/restaurant. Extremely central, within walking distance of the Bus and Train Stations, Princes Street, and a host of other top... more

Stayed at Rick's Hotel for one night in March. I've eaten at the hotel before, but wanted to stay to sample the rooms and overall visitor experience. Absolutely loved the rooms - great decor, really clean, good quality furnishings, and lovely touches like the free water / cakes and the huge range of toiletries and bathroom "bits". Evening mel was... more

I cant recommend Ricks highly enough. i have stayed at ricks at least 5 times in the last year or so and is my FIRST choice when booking hotels in edinburgh. I admit that there is noise from the rubbish collections but in my opinion this negative is outweighed by the many positives about ricks. over the last year i... more

We stayed at Rick's for New Years Eve (Hogmanay) and bought the Hogmanay package. The hotel itself is super chic and modern. It was clean and an excellent location! Like other reviews I've read, yes, you hear garbage trucks dumping the glass bottles in the early hours of the morning (but I did notice they provide ear plugs in the... more

We'd planned a romantic break in Edinburgh and booked the room in The Borough, a boutique hotel in the university quarter... but when we arrived the room itself smelled of sick. Reception tried to help but were fully booked and could only offer a discount - which wouldn't take the subtle aroma away. One frantic call to Rick's, where I'd... more

Very impressed with the service provided by the Staff at the hotel. Hannah on the reception desk was particularly helpful even though she seemed to be multi tasking! - i.e when we requested a cup of coffee she made it herself! Would certainly recommend this hotel to friends and family. more
