Room spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff were welcoming and friendly. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was very tasty. Breakfast was a little disappointing, only things on offer were cooked breakfasts, no offer of any cereal, pastries, yoghurts or fruit. Toilets in the main part of the hotel/restaurant area weren’t the cleanest and in a little bit of disrepair. Overall a lovely stay though, nice hotel in a great location.

Front of house staff when we arrived were quite rude. The young lady who served us didn’t move off her seat to help with the bags we were leaving and had assured she would call when our room was ready but we arrived at 3.20 and it was ready?! As a first impression at a high standard expensive hotel (which I stay in a lot ) was definitely not appropriate to your level of service that should be provided. We weren’t made to feel particularly welcome. I won’t be rushing to return or recommend to others unfortunately.

Great place to stay

We loved the Tigerlily. One of our favorites places to stay during our vacation. Staff was very friendly and helpful. After a long flight and early arrival, they not only held our luggage but placed it in our room. Thank you so much for the easy check in. Breakfast was great. One day we had to leave early and they provided us with some goodies since we could not enjoy the normal full breakfast. Great location for exploring the city! We felt safe and very comfortable. Our room was extremely clean and comfortable. Good size bathroom and comfortable bed. We would stay here again.

A really lovely hotel in the new town. The room was clean, really big with tea/coffee, nice toiletries and GHD hairdryer/straighteners. The staff were lovely and helpful. The food/bar were reasonably priced and breakfast was lovely. There is a nightclub in the basement, as we were on the 3rd floor this did not disturb us too much but I suspect if you are on the 1st floor this may be noisy.

Tigerlilly is an excellent hotel to stay in when in Edinburgh. I had an issue with my bill before arriving, and I received a phone call about it before our arrival. They had the wrong arrival date for us. Because we were coming in from the States, they asked us to book a night before. They charged us for an additional night. After I spoke to the woman at the desk, she said it would be taken care of. The day before checking out, I talked to the front desk and they told me that the day was split among the rest of the days that were charged. After I looked at my final bill when I got home, I saw that the charge was still there.
