It was only an overnight stay so I wanted to be located centrally to the castle, the church and all those street shows for the Fringe and events. The hotel was very clean, nice and the staff were very helpful. We are definitely staying there gain next year and longer.

Such a convenient location and a beautiful building right off the royal mile. It was the perfect base camp for exploring Edinburgh in August during Fringe AND the Tattoo. I'll absolutely stay here again. Some of the winding hallways will have you feeling like you're in Harry Potter with the moving staircases though, but it was just the standard character that all the older buildings there have and is in no way a drawback, just a fun experience we weren't expecting.

Great location and views - not much else

Fraser has an amazing location - and the views are gorgeous. But for a 4 star hotel I found it otherwise unfortunately quite lacking. For whatever reason, whenever you use the plumbing, extremely loud sounds come out of the bathroom. This can be very disruptive to sleep. At 3 am a vent fell out of the ceiling scaring me to death by waking me up (it was LOUD). I couldn't go back to sleep. Plaster is all over the floor. When I told management they said sorry but nothing else. Would have been nice for a comped breakfast or something since I desperately needed coffee after my 3 am heart attack. The coffee bar was restocked with the milk that had been left in the sink, which would have been spoiled if not refrigerated. Not sure why new one wasn't provided. No early check in is available by the way. Bathrooms on premises to use before your room is ready is a utilitarian bathroom with permanently stained toilet. Fraser is beautiful, but I don't know if these drawbacks can truly justify the cost. My partner actually had to go back to his place as he couldn't deal with the extremely noisy air conditioning unit.

Fabulous place to stay. Near by the train station and a few minutes walk to the castle. Amenities are great and they even let you leave your suitcases after check out for a little while which is great if you want to go grab something to eat while waiting for transport etc. lots of stairs about in Edinburgh which you need to take for the short cut to this hotel from the station. This is where I’ll be booking next time I go to Edinburgh.

Disliked: Amenities
The sink in the bathroom drained so slowly as to be almost completely plugged. The shower glass needed replacing so that water went on the floor when showering leading to missing grout and moving floor tiles. The refrigerator was faulty. Food had ice and water was also leaking into the bottom of the fridge. The walls were scuffed and dinged. The pictures provided by the property suggested a higher level of cleanliness and attention to detail. I wouldn’t stay here again.
