We had a wonderful stay at the Melvin House.4/14-4/18/06. The staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. The breakfasts were very good and were served in a very relaxing manner and room. Our room was very large and very ample for the 2 of us. Melvin House is quite close to the shopping areas and the taxi service was very fast and on time. We do recommend this hotel.

We chose this hotel because of its location and reviews and we were'nt disappointed. The hotel is within 5 minutes walk of the end of Princes Street near the castle. Staff were friendly and helpful, it wasn't a problem leaving our bags with them after we checked out. The room was comfortable if small, but adequate for a two night stay. Slight negatives were that the pillows were hard, and the lift is a no for anyone who is claustrophobic, as it is barely big enough for 2 people. However, this did not prevent our stay at this hotel from being an enjoyable visit. Would consider this hotel if visiting Edinburgh again.

the melvin house hotel is an excellent hotel. great location and friendly staff. the rooms were very large and breakfasts were just exceptional. we were there on a two night break and on the second morning however, there seemed to be a shortage of water, but this did not damper our short break.
it is only a 10 minute walk to princes street. the rooms have everything one requires, to even pieces of shortbread (to give it the scottish feel!). it really is worth a visit.
