Stayed at Macdonald Holyrood Hotel in Edinburgh in mid-May. Located on a quiet street next to Scottish Parliament & Holyrood House Palace. 5 minutes walk to the center of Royal Mile. Tescos Express next door convenient for in-room groceries & snacks. Nice-sized rooms with ample space to move around, effective heating & airconditioning, comfortable beds, great shower pressure & hot... More

Stayed at this hotel at the weekend, room was lovely except it was very hot as air con wasn't working well. Views from the room were nice as was the little balcony outside. Room service and breakfast were nice and freshly made just a shame that I can get the same food at every MacDonald hotel when it should be... More

If it wasn't for the staff, I'd have been totally dis-satisfied with what is being charged for a 4 star hotel. We stayed for three nights, check in was friendly and efficient. We were allocated room 603 (we had upgraded to this floor with central bookings). As soon as we walked in the heat hit us, and the air con... More

Lovely room with immaculate white sheets and very comfortable. Had been on a small group tour for six days staying at some very interesting placed, it was just so good... More

Had a great weekend staying at the MacDonald Holyrood. The Concierge service is exceptional - nothing was too much trouble, they knew we wanted umbrellas, taxis before we did and took care of all our luggage! Nice pool, sauna and steam room (grumpy spa receptionist). This is the 2nd time I've stayed here (first time with a baby) and I... More

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights for our 10th wedding anniversary. The hotel staff looked after us really well from the minute we arrived. We were upgraded to a gorgeous room & had champagne each evening in the Library. We felt so spoiled :o) We ate in the restaurant on our first night and the food was excellent.... More

Our busy, touristy day started with Edinburgh Castle, followed by exploration of the Royal Mile. The location of this hotel, at the BOTTOM of the Royal Mile hill, was great! We could enjoy the day and, as we got tired, we knew all we had to do was walk downhill to the hotel. The hotel was lovely and breakfast service... More
