Loved our stay at the Royal Scot. Comfortable rooms with all the facilities you need for a weekend stay. Lots of history in the main building and a very welcoming staff.

This is a unique, cozy option should you find yourself in Edinburgh. It’s walkable to shops and food and in a safe clean area. *you have the option to add breakfast and I would recommend. There isn’t a lot of early food options.

Amazing hotel.
This is an exceptional hotel. While not on the main drag, its a beautiful hotel, with a nice bar and restaurant and brilliant staff. The bad points, a standard lamp in the room didnt work (we coped, there were plenty of lights) and the apperitives at dinner turned up while we ordering dessert. Minor things. The Staff were really up to speed, handled anything we asked of them brillantly and the room was amazing. Please don't go - I want to go back and dont want it fully booked.

Excellent gem in Edinburgh
The staff couldn’t of done more so friendly. The bed was so comfy and room had everything in it made our stay much more. We stayed in 34A and being in a different building didn’t cause any fuss still used the main building as normal. The lounge/bar was a quite and relaxing for a drink. breakfast selection had everything you need and more. We stayed as part of a larger group and all our rooms where carefully thought about and our other firends chose to stay in the main building due to having a lift.

Very comfortable hotel
Over the years I've stayed at various rooms at the Royal Scots Club Hotel. They are all equally attractive and comfortable. There is a certain calm to the whole place which is also very attractive. The staff are also friendly and efficient.
