We stayed for 4 nights in the penthouse apartment. Sadly no lift but the climb up 4 flights of stairs was well worth the effort- the stairwell is beautifully restored and the views from the apartment out to the Firth of Forth are stunning. Kitchen and bathroom are state-of-the-art. The amply sized bed is extremely comfortable. Flatscreen TV's galore- living... more

Never have I been more positively surprised by a hotel room on arrival. Huge apartment style suites await with fabulous decor and great service if required. We had room 7/3 which had dining for up to 6 people, 2 sofa lounge with fireplace, Kitchen bathroom and bedroom. Do not hesitate booking - rooms are as good as reviews suggest. more

Just returned from Chester Residence after reading the great reviews on this site. We stayed 3 nights with a toddler and if only all hotels could be like this. We felt instantly relaxed and at home, well, a better version of home! Beautifully designed, all the very best gadgets and equipment and very cosy on a cold November weekend. For... more

The only problem with the Chester Residence? That our stay was only two nights. This is, for us, the new gold standard of hotels. Modern, clean, roomy; it was like having our own flat in the city. Staff was beyond helpful, and with the possible exception of the parking situation (and even that was alleviated by our being there on... more

Super posh design, everything is brand new, shiny and of good quality. Good taste. Located in an up-scale neighborhood. Very spacious living room and fully equipped kitchen. Great beds and outstanding media installations (huge flatscreen, surround sound in all rooms). All in all, pure luxury at VERY reasonable prices. Loved it!!! more

We stayed here for our anniversary weekend for two nights and were very impressed. The suite was beautifully laid out, facilities were wonderful and staff excellent. We chose it because it was rated number 1 on this site and booked through laterooms.com where we got a much better price than their own site. Much better than a hotel. If I'm... more

We booked a two bedroom apartment for an overnight stay as we were traveling on the Royal scotsman the next day and this hotel seemed to have the best reviews for Edinburgh. On arrival we were able to park the car outside accross the street on a meter overnight which was good. We had to climb the stair as there... more

Have just spent a long weekend at the Chester Residence in one of the penthouse apartments - it was absolutely fab !! - You have all the freedom of a luxury apartment coupled with the service of a hotel. I must however say beware of your reservation dates!!! If it hadn;t been for my having to let them know 2... more

This place is excellent and everything is top notch. The only thing to note is that there is no elevator so if you are in the penthouse, it is a tiring walk up and down all of the floors. This was a bit of an issue with all of our baby gear when we would go out. No complaints though,... more
