Beautiful hotel the room was not very warm
Jacqueline, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The kettle did not switch off, so we risked burns every time we used it. The bathroom door handle did not work and one of the towels was covered with stains. There was no room cleaning during our stay. Be aware you can hear bar noise from the rooms. Not such an issue during the week when the bar closes at 10pm. On the positive side, car parking was easy and there were bus stops to Edinburgh right outside. The breakfast was also well cooked. Felt overpriced.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great two night stay at the Ravelston House Hotel. Room was very comfortable with an excellent en suite. Tea and coffee provided and the included breakfast was also very good. Bar menu was good, can recommend the haddock. Easy links in and out of the city by very frequent buses which stop within a few yards of the hotel in either direction. We’d definitely stay there again.

Fabulous staff and delicious meaks

Staff were very friendly , helpful and polite.We had breakfasts and dinners there and they were delicious and freshly cooked. Our room was clean but cold on occasions. The shower sealant needs replacing because it has mould on it. Excellent location for getting the bus into Edinburgh.

Lovely guest room and dining room. Great location near the sea and easy bus ride into central Edinburgh.
Joan, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Bad luck continuing???

We checked in then weather warning were sent to our phones then we were advised shopping centres around were closing so we made the decision to go home, so although the room looked nice and the bathroom very nice, we didn’t actually stay at the hotel. We had food in the restaurant before we left and it was nice enough

This was our second time to stay here and we were very pleased with our room and meals.
Patricia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great hotel. The room and bathroom was really stylish. Saw a couple of cobwebs, which may bother some people. The bed was comfortable and the room was warm. A great choice for breakfast from a full Scottish to pancakes. There was unlimited tea and coffee and cereal. The buses into Edinburgh are regular and drop you right into Princes street so it's just a great location for exploring the city without paying a lot. We would consider staying here again.

The hotel was very cozy, the staff were welcoming and friendly, and the bar was great! Shout out to the bartender Ewen for his hospitality.

The bedroom was clean and comfortable, had a great sleep( very quiet). The staff were friendly. Decent bar with reasonable prices. My only gripe was breakfast. The beans, mushroom, haggis and black pudding were cold. Would stay again though......
