Stayed at Ten Hill Place for 2 nights on a first time visit to Edinburgh. The hotel is located near the University of Edinburgh and is a short walk from the Royal Mile and the other attractions.

We stayed in many "charming" B&B type accommodations while in the UK, but this modern hotel with its comfortable beds, modern bathroom (hot and cold water comes from one spout, yay!) with heated towel rack, and excellent breakfast buffet wins the "best stay" contest by a mile. Staff were very courteous in helping us store luggage, find public transportation, etc. Definitely recommended.

Stayed here on business in Feb 2008. Had one of the skyline suites at a good rate. What a great room and what a great view over the rooftops of the city. This is a well located hotel with good rooms, free broadband, pleasant receptionists and a reasonable bar / breakfast

5 minutes walk south of the castle. Good hotel

We stayed at the Ten Hill Place Hotel from 8-10th February 2008. The hotel is pretty central (less than 10 minutes walk to the Royal Mile, 5 minutes walk to the Grassmarket, 15 minutes to Princes Street).

Staying at this hotel was a really nice experience. It was spotless. The rooms were lovely and modern with comfortable beds, a safe, tea and coffee making facilities, complimentary bottles of water, and the all important packets of shortbread. Others have mentioned the glass bathroom door. Its not a big issue but I wasn't a big fan of it.

I know alot of people have mentioned the issue of the small dining room and the waiting at breakfast. I was a bit concerned about this but it wasn't a problem. The staff were very professional and on both mornings were very quick to get us seated at a table, generally in less than 10 minutes. As we weren't in a rush for anything it was completely fine. The breakfast itself is great. It is buffet style and you can get a full cooked breakfast, cereals, meats and cheeses, etc. Even though it was busy for breakfast, the staff continuously replenished the food, so there was no danger of anyone going hungry!

I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel. It is nice and quiet but at the same time you don't feel out of the way of things as everything is a short walk away.

A final word on the staff - they were really helpful and friendly - what more could you ask for?

We have just returned from our stay at this Hotel and I couldn’t wait to get on here to tell you all how fantastic this hotel is.

Location
The hotel is in a great location a 5/10 min walk to the royal mile and a 10/15 min walk to Princess street (aka shopping st) and Rose st (Aka Pub st (34 pubs all on one st!!) The walk is along a main road that has several bars/Shops etc and should you not fancy the walk back (If like us after one to many whiskeys(!)) a taxi costs £3-bargain!!

The Hotel
The Hotel is very modern- (Flat screen TV's, Internet access and an overall modern look)
The Hotel was extremely clean and staff ever so helpful - The reception staff excelled and where eager to help in every without being pushy -making restaurant reservations, Taxis, Luggage storage (even locking my laptop in an office for extra security!)


The Room
Our room was cosy -It has been said in other reports that the rooms are small - We didn’t find this to be the case.
The room had everything you would need –
Iron and board! Hairdryer (that actually managed to dry my hair -unlike most hotel hairdryers !) Tea/Coffee Making facilities, Complimentary Toiletries, and flat screen TVs -with films and games available.
The room was extremely clean and yet again had a very modern look to it.

The Breakfast
A fantastic Selection-Full Scottish (including haggis!!)Cereal, Toast, Eggs/Porridge made to order, Yogurts, Fruit, meats, cheese, pastries. - All the food looked and tasted fresh and was one of the best Hotel Brekkies we have had.

Should we ever return to Edinburgh I would certainly stay here again.
